If he can add positive value and play several more years, he'll have a shot. A few more really productive seasons, and he might get over the line.

It worked for Oliva.

But I agree, Stanton has a ways to go, perhaps a long ways. I just wagered $300 he will get there. No, I didn't make a bet, I bought a rookie card lol.
