Not a Rookie: Ryan Braun

PrintDo you think he'll play at the same level next year? I have a feeling that he's going to be kind of a bust...especially from a fantasy perspective.
I hate the 112/29 K/B ratio. Am I letting those numbers influence my opinion toward him too much?
I want him to be really good. I could keep him, Ichiro, or BJ Upton for 2 more seasons. Ichiro seems to be the safest pick.

Braun
his K:BB

LF vs 3B
3 Left Fielders hit over .300 last year (5 more hit over .290).
8 3B hit over .300, with one more at .293.
5 LF hit 30+ HR last year.
4 3B hit 30+ HR.
5 LF drove in 100+ last year (2 more had 90+).
7 3B drove in 100+ runs, with 3 more at 90+.
3 LF had an OPS of .900+ last year (1 over 1.000).
5 3B had an OPS of .900+ last year (2 over 1.000).
Even assuming Braun regresses over a full season (and I do), I still believe he will put up "special" numbers, even as a LF.
