    i have to go with marte.

    marte, at one time was considered the best overall 3b spect. now, he is def in the top 3, if not the best.

    And its harder to find top 3b than of. OF has much more depth than 3b.

    eventhough both are solid, Franceour is just one of the bunch.

    I'll also take Marte. Based on the depth, or lack thereof of 3B prospects, and how great he is. It's a greaty choice.

    EDIT:haha the poster above me did pretty much the same thing.

    I go with Marte, too.

    Franceour strikes out too much

    I have them both in a keeper with minors, but obviously Marte is going to be better.

    For the same reason that I picked Upton over Delmon.

    They're both going to hit very well in the majors, but Marte at 3rd clinches it. Need that 3B power. Now, will Chipper move back to left when Marte is ready is the real question?

    I echo Wilts opinon on Marte over Jeff. I think chipper will move to left.

    Marte easily. Francoeur has the potential to be better but I don't think he'll ever fulfill it.
