The (new) Great Debate

    The debate is older than the forming of the continents, but it's always fun to play in order to kill time (or space-time continuum for you hairy ones) but let's go with two new names. Which of the two `Wonder Twins' will be the better at the end of their careers?
    Reid Brignac, who has the bat that if he can stick at shortstop (which has been suggested that indeed he can) would become very valuable. Evan Longoria figures to be more of a line drive hitter who will hit more singles than anything (include walk.)
    I'm not going to go into a Robert Frost like rendition of Fire and Ice, but quite simply I'd take Reid Brignac. Neither are Neifian with the glove, and bat wise Brignac brings the boom, add in the fact that the walls at the Trop are being lowered and that he's a left handed bat which makes him even more intriguing to me.
    Longoria flew through the minor leagues, but part of his success at Visalia and his (semi) success at Montgomery can be placed partially on the fact he had Brignac batting behind him. Though you could say that defensibly Longoria helped Brignac out a bit.
    So which one would you take, Briggy or Longy?
