Wieters Is No Matt LaPorta

What does it take to be number one?  Two is not a winner and three nobody remembers.  -Nelly

Public Service Announcement:  Ok, here we go!  First things first, I like Matt Wieters as much as the next guy.  I guess he’s pretty good if you like six-five, 230-pound, switch-hitting catchers with a laser rocket arm.  I do.  I like six-five, 230-pound switch-hitting catchers with a laser rocket arm.  Last night, Wieters, Baltimore’s first pick in the 2007 draft (5th overall), hit his first major-league tater.  Hooray Matt Wieters!  As exciting as all that is, know this, it’s only the second big-league homer by a player drafted in 2007 or later.  Matt LaPorta, the seventh overall pick in 2007, hit a two-run homer for the Indians at Toronto on May 4 this year.  Take that Matt Wieters!

Peace out homies.  Six two and Even!
