John Gall or Kevin Frandsen?

Is either of these players the next 400 AB hitter to come out of the pool post-draft?

Gall has little competition in LF in St. Louis amongst So Taguchi, Skip Schumaker and John Rodriguez. A hot start and the ABS are his. Or at the very least, he'd play his way on to Tony LaRussa's favorite's list which would ensure 4 starts per week. If anyone knew the secret formula to crack that list.....

Frandsen has no competition for two weeks but he is likely out of a full-time job the moment Ray Durham returns. Normally Jose Vizcaino wouldn't offer any competiton, but he has extensive expensive from his Astros' days blocking better prospects' ABs.

I'd take a chance on either if I had the roster flexibility.
