Kubel's nickname

As a Twins fan, I'm a little shocked that Kubel's nickname was removed. We all call him "the Future" in the 612! Boivina (talk) 22:52, 17 December 2007 (UTC) -I agree with Boivina. Even in the 914, he's "The Future." Smedley Hirkum (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 22:53, 17 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I live in "the 651" and I've never heard this nickname. Please provide a reliable source that it's used by a large number of fans. android 79 00:50, 18 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"His ability to hit for average while maintaining plate discipline make him a middle of the order type of hitter."

should be replaced with

"His ability to hit for power while maintaining plate discipline make him a middle of the order type of hitter."

---

hitting for average and having good plate discipline is somewhat redundant whereas hitting for power adds the extra dimension that represents middle of the lineup power
