Enter the Cubs’ Kris Bryant and the Phillies’ Alec Bohm, two 6-foot-5 third basemen. Bryant has established himself as one of the best power hitters in the game through his five big-league seasons. Bohm is a consensus top 40 overall prospect in baseball. It’s a matter of when, not if, Bohm takes over the position for the Phillies.
Similar builds aside, their career paths mirror each other’s. Bryant, the No. 2 pick in 2013, and Bohm, the No. 3 pick in 2018, were polished, impact college bats and tracked to reach the majors two years after they were drafted.
So, who would you rather have? Bryant, the 28-year-old former National League MVP and one of the game’s best third basemen, or Bohm, the 23-year-old who is baseball’s top prospect at third base?
