Jut a thought on strikeouts which may have already been mentioned but personally I'd rather take the guy who strikes out less since a ground ball or fly ball is not a guaranteed out. A guy who strikes out isn't putting the ball in play so even if their contact is the same and theoretically will average the same outs, I'll take the lesser strikeout prone player. At least said player will get on base more often, giving him the ability to steal bases and produce runs which is more valuable than a guy who either gets a hit or strikes out the majority of the time. My two cents anyways. Great discussion as others have said though.
