Kouz. I took a look at them on Baseball Cube and, thought it's difficult to compare them due to the large differences in ages (Branyan hit the minors at 18 while Kouz was still in college at 22), they don't look all that dissimilar in the minors. Of course as others have pointed out, we'll just have to wait and see as it's way too early to pass any judgement on him yet.<p class="top-comments">Current score: <span class="top-comments-karma" id="karma-42769">0</span> <small>(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)</small></p> Interesting thought on Branyan v.
