Who do you think will have the better career? Jay Bruce or Carlos Gonzalez?

I have given you our scoring system below. Thanks for the help!

Scoring for Batting Categories
BB - Walks (Batters) 1 point
HP - Hit by Pitch .5 points
KO - Strikeouts (Batter) -1 point
R - Runs 1 point
RBI - Runs Batted In 1 point
SB - Stolen Bases 1 point
TB - Total Bases 1 point

I'd say Car-Go, cuz the only 2 categories for points that you mentioned in which Bruce would have an advantage over Gonzalez is in BB's and RBI's cuz he hits in the 5 hole, where Gonzalez hits lead-off. Gonzalez will see more total bases, which will result in more R's, SB's (he's faster and steals more than Bruce), also in TB's, and he also strikes out less than Bruce, cuz leadoff hitters don't strike out very much, which is about 90% of the reason why they hit where they do, because they reach base and allow those 2-5 guys to get them in from the base-paths. trust me. go for Car-Go.

Anyone else with a take?

Car Go gets my vote, and Colorado has influence in that.

HELP ME? It's a quickie.

Without home runs, I'd go with Cargo easily.

I agree with no HR's Cargo is the winner. I've been waiting on Bruce for a couple of years now and he's dissapointed me. I like Cargo's second half #'s and He will have a better career.
