It's going to take him even longer to make it to the MLB if he even does now.

Damn
First his wrist, now his finger. What's next?
In any case, he still needs to work on his plate discipline and defense at 3rd.

So the curse of the third baseman may live on after Rammy too.

He definitely won't be ready next year. Best case is that he makes the team in 2012.

His development is going that slow? He was our third pick in 2007...I know he was coming outta high school but look at Castro.

He was actually our 1st pick, and the 3rd overall pick...but that was probably what you meant.
I'm starting to have serious doubts on Vitters ever donning a Chicago Cubs uniform.

I think Jackson is a higher prospect than him so i wouldn't say that he'd our top prospect.

Vitters is easily our 2nd best position prospect behind Brett Jackson.
Quit acting like this isn't a big hit. This kid is owned in 8 percent of CBS Fantasy Leagues. If he were really 2 years out, like half of CCS claims he is...then why would 8% of fantasy leagues own this kid?!
Anyone with half a brain know this kid HAD a chance to challenge for a roster spot next year as a 1B/3B/OF utility...And don't say he couldn't play OF next year. If Soriano can play it, so can this kid...Plus, Nady will be gone.

All I was saying was that he isn't our top prospect, but maybe 2nd or 3rd.
If he can hit for power again and get his average up a little then sure.

That sucks.. I think Vitters could have made a spot on the team next season.

His plate discipline is bad and he doesn't walk much.

Scout's have been really high on Hak-Ju Lee. A lot of them have him as high as our #2 prospect.
The sad thing about this is that Vitters was heating up too. He hit .345/.441/.724/1.165 the 9 games before this. His BABIP was .240 into this season, so he was a bit unlucky. He walked a lot more this season too, so he may be on the verge of breaking out at some point. He's only 20, so I still have some home with him.
