Ian Kinsler - future All Star
40 games in a row without an error, and in 145 post-All Star Break at bats, here are the kid's stats:
.331 Average
.394 OBP
.490 Slugging
only 4 homers and 7 doubles...
8 of 10 stolen bases
27 Runs
20 RBI
only 22 strikeouts
He's on pace for at least a 20/20 season and with a full healthy year could've possibly approached 30/30 status. I can't name an AL 2nd baseman I'd rather have on my team...is Kinsler a future All Star and Gold Glover?
In addition, if Washington could work this kind of magic with Kinsler's defense and approach at the plate, can he do the same for Hank Blalock now that he's back in action?

Slow down a bit

range
Based on observation, I'd say he has above average range going up the middle, and at least average range to his left.

AL 2B
Off the top of my head, Pedroia comes to mind; he has a .324 .390 .446 line. The only games I get to see with any consistency are the Red Sox, and he seems to handle himself pretty well with the glove. BJ Upton? Polanco has been putting up some pretty good numbers for the past couple of years, though he is certainly a bit older.
