That is just not true. He can play center field and has played it throughout his young career. He is projected to be a major league right fielder because he has a very strong arm. The profound increase in his power numbers is not because of the PCL. It is because of an adjustment that he made in his stroke as in elevating the ball. HE is a strong young man.
He's projected in RF because he can't cover CF in the bigs. It's not an arm thing.
His power is projected by the people that get checks 5 points higher than Robles who is only 20 and 2 years younger. It's the same. In fact, Calhoun might have slightly less power as Robles continues to mature.

Calhoun has legit power and is more mature and major league ready. Robles has a lot of talent but has yet to prove himself to the extent that the other two have. Anyway, no new ground is being covered here so might as well agree to disagree.
