A player's maturity and mindset are not things that can be calculated. Sometimes you have to look at the intangibles for a player and not solely rely on stats and/or sabermetrics.

I've said before that his minor league totals dictate a quality BA with some decent pop, but one of the things that I'm drawn to is the fact that he's not a typical rookie. I like the fact that he's spent the last few years maturing in the minors and getting his head right for the game. Sure, he'll get caught up in certain aspects of being a successful major leaguer, but at 27 he's probably a little more grounded mentally. There's a reason so many ballplayers break out in the 26 to 27 year old range and it's not just physical. I don't know about the next 5 years for keeping him, but I feel pretty comfortable with the fact that he could be a top 10 third baseman for atleast the next 2 seasons.
