No Rangers Report This Week, as I'm leaving out of town in two hours for business. 

So instead, I thought I'd foster some debate, with a pair of Futures Game Participants, Clay Buchholz of the Red Sox and Joba Chamberlain of the Yankees.

Here are the scouting reports, as written by me.  Thanks to Keith Law from ESPN and Kevin Goldstein from Baseball Prospectus for providing the research material.

 Clay Buchholz (RHP)

• DOB: 8/14/84
• Drafted: 42nd round, 2005, Angelina (Texas) JUCO
• Height/Weight: 6-3/190
• Bats/Throws: R/R
• The Skinny:  One of the two "Killer B's" duo for the Red Sox, Buchholz is the top prospect in the Red Sox's farm system and went through the season last year with flying colors, the highlight of Buchholz's season was when he outdueled Roger Clemens in a rehab start. 
• The Good:  Buchholz has some of the nastiest stuff in the entire minor leagues.  His fastball regularly clocks in the low to mid 90's, but he accompanies the impressive heater with a pair of plus offerings in his curveball and changeup.  His command and control are outstanding and his delivery brings up no problems.
• The Bad:  Not much.  Some would like to see him gain weight to build a bit more stamina.  That's about it.
• What He Can Be:  A Top of the rotation starter. Maybe even better than Beckett.

Joba Chamberlain (RHP)

• DOB: 9/23/85
• Drafted: 1st round, 2006, University of Nebraska
• Height/Weight: 6-2/230
• Bats/Throws: R/R
• The Skinny:  Projected as a top pick early in the college season, injury issues dropped him to the supplemental first round. He's already looking like a draft-day steal.  Chamberlain blew away scouts in the Hawaiian Winter League, and his 2007 season has elevated him to the title of Best Pitching Prospect In The System with Hughes now likely to remain in New York when he returns.
• Assets:  Chamberlain has an electric arm and blows people away with a mid 90's fastball that is complimented with a plus slider.  His command and control are excellent and when he's on, he's nearly unbeatable.
• Negatives:  Chamberlain has had problems with his weight and there are the questions about whether or not he's durable enough to be a starting pitcher.  He also needs to work on his changeup and do a better job of mixing in his pitches.
• What He Can Be: Potentially A Number one Starter, Drawing Some Bartolo Colon References Along The Way.

The question I'm posing to all ya'll is, who would you rather have in your system.  Buchholz is closer to the bigs and has better secondary stuff, but Chamberlain has the more talented arm and fastball.  So, pick your poison.  Who would you rather have and who will be better, long term.
