Davis had a fantastic rookie debut handling himself nicely with the bat and shining in the field. Based off the sabermetrics Davis was head and shoulders the best defensive first baseman in the National League and just behind Daric Barton for the best in the MLB. I easily see Davis improving off his numbers as I am not a big believer in the sophomore slump theory. In terms of WAR Davis finished 12th in the MLB for first baseman and I think a top-10 finish in 2011 will happen. If Davis gets his strikeouts under control he can become a real force with his natural power and defense. I am setting the over/under for flipping over the railing at 4 times this season. This one is a keeper for sure.
