 Minor League Ball :: Community Projection: Nick Swisher
Our community projection is a touch more optimistic than what other systems are showing, but all of these numbers are certainly within the realm of possibility, all being possible outcomes of the Strat-O-Matic card for Nick Swisher that was programmed by God.
Still, I will go ahead and stick with those numbers since that is what I put in the 2005 Baseball Prospect Book and it isn't really fair to change now that I've seen the output of other systems.
I think Hardy has big things ahead of him, and I was truly taken aback that so many folks at this blog named him one of the "most overrated" prospects a couple weeks ago.

Beane’s prize of the famous Moneyball draft, Nick Swisher, is hitting.218 through 78 at-bats (with a.278 OBP), and fat-assed catcher Jeremy Brown, he of the inspirational home run, is playing AAA ball in Sacramento.

If you're wondering how the A's, after a dismal start, wound up the hottest team in baseball, going 43-14 since May 30, David Pinto's Day by Day database provides answers yet again:
*The return from injury of Bobby Crosby and the arrival of Dan Johnson seem to have coincided with the awakening of Eric Chavez, Nick Swisher and Jason Kendall from deep slumps, giving the A's the offensive core they'd lacked in the early going.
They actually now look like a pretty good offensive team, if still not the Yankees.
