Hunter Pence

Hey guys, if you don't own this guy in your fantasy leagues, pick him up NOW. He's 7 for 7 against the Giants, he has 4 homeruns and 15 RBI despite only being called up 3 weeks ago. He may hit a rookie wall at some point, but get him while you can.

Pence is going to be a great player. He has speed and power. He could potentially be a 30/30 guy in a cuople of years.

I agree. Just from watching the highlights last night, this kid looks like he can play.

The Astros wanted Pence to play at AAA for the first half of the year, but when Burke struggled so badly at the plate and in the field, they went ahead and called him up. He just turned 24 and has almost no AAA expereince, so I do expect him to come back down to earth, but he is here to stay.

Yeah he will hit a rookie wall at some point, but Cole Hamels didn't have much AAA experience, and look at what he's done. I know it's different with pitchers than position players.
