JERI's Question and Vintage Cheesecake

Welcome Back, Happy Bloggers!
Getting 200 hits in a single season is not terribly easy, at least according to people who actually know this stuff. I was going to ask about which of the top prospects this year is likely to break the all time record, but then I found out that the current record of 262 (Congrats to Ichiro Suzuki) is unlikely to be broken, at least until our beloved super-strengthed Cylon overlords figure out how to play. (Yeah, I can know baseball stuff! Viva La Google!)
With that in mind, your JERI's Big, Huge Question O' the Day (and cheesecake, no joke) is after the jump:

4. Desmond Jennings
5. Logan Morrison

I assume
You don’t think Buster will stick at catcher then? My darkhorse is Dee Gordon.

I think he’ll move at some point. Gordon was a guy that I also thought of, along with Dom Brown as a guy who potentially could.

My 5 sleepers who could do it
Outside of the obvious, in no particular order:
1. Ben Revere
2. Dee gordon
3. Jose Iglesias
4. Anthony Rizzo
5. Freedie Freeman
For each guy, I have a comp of a year in which a player put up similar numbers to what I expect these guys will. Here they are:
1. Revere: Juan Pierre in 2003
2. Dee Gordon: Mark Grudzielanek 1996
3. Jose Iglesias: Randy Velarde 1999
4. Anthony Rizzo: Paul Moliter 1982
5. Freedie Freeman: Garret Anderson 2003
Thoughts?
You’re name has 2k9 in it — what are you some 8 year-old who makes Pillsbury Doughboy cookies and jerks off to that bullshit video game with Tim Lincecum on the cover--

not sold on rizzo or revere
i think the Freeman pick is interesting… Iglesias and Gordon are pretty safe bets

I actually like the Revere mention
High average, fast guy who might not walk too much. That is the key with any possibles. They can’t be high walk low average guys, so Revere, Gordon, maybe even Austin Jackson are possibles

Morrisson
Heyward
I don’t see others, 210 hits is stuff
