Which Prospect?

BaseballAmerica.com: Prospects: Prospect Hot Sheet: Prospect Hot Sheet Chat With JJ Cooper:

"Nate (new jersey): Jason Heyward or Mike Stanton for the next 10 years?

J.J. Cooper: Heyward and it didn't really take any time to think about it. Stanton is a great prospect—as good a power prospect as I can remember, but Heyward has Stanton-esque power and combines with it one of the best, most patient batting eyes we've seen in years. The likely best case scenario for Stanton is that he could hit 40 HRs several times and be one of the best sluggers of the next decade. Is it going too far to say that Heyward's best-case scenario is to put up A-Rod like numbers at the plate."
