Player of the Day - Kyle Russell, OF

Russell clubbed his 21st home run today, which is 6 better than the next guy, Cubs' 3B Josh Vitters. While he's also tops in the league in SLG and second in OPS, I'm still skeptical about how much he'll succeed at higher levels, if at all. Kyle has already struck out an astonishing 110 times in just over 300 at bats. And before you compare him to Adam Dunn, remember that Dunn spent his age 19 season in the Midwest league and struck out less than 20% of the time.
