I read that LaRussa came up to him at the ASG and said, "Pujols told me ALL about you". And he's not even of legal drinking age yet. Just crazy.

When Matt Kemp hasn't been injured, he's also definitely up there, just not right this instant.

I agree completely. If you made this poll at the end of April Kemp would have won in my opinion. He was the best player in baseball last year and was off to an incredible start before he got hurt.

Yup, he's been out like a month and a half and still has more HR's than anyone on the Giants

Nothing he cant do. He is the complete 5 tool player. I would take Trout first if I had my pick of any player for my team (for the next several years) but Kemp could very well be 2nd.

Kemp is overrated. Don't crown him bros.

He is good no doubt, but I don't think he is the best player in game today
