ESPN: Chat with Baseball America's John Manuel - SportsNation

Kevin (NYC): John, could you please compare Austin Jackson and Andrew McCutchen? Who is the better hitter for average, who is the better hitter for power and who is the better defender in CF? Thx!

John Manuel : (2:28 PM ET ) Jackson's ceiling is a skoch higher but he's quite a bit less polished with the bat than McCutchen. Jackson has more contact ability, more raw power, probably a better defender as well, but he just has had less time as a primary baseball player. But for me, Jackson's the better prospect.
