Butler vs Barton

Baseball America - Ask BA

Baseball America ranked Barton ahead of Butler, #28 to #29.

In this Q&A with Jim Callis, he says Butler would have been higher if he "had been able to stay at third base or had a much of a chance to stay in left field, rather than looking like a future DH. "

One spot difference for a DH vs a 1B? Butler is the better prospect. Barton-philia is all that keeps it from being recognized.
