MLB's Vitruvian Rookie: The best parts of the best rookies combined to make a perfect player

If you're not unreasonably obsessed with MLB's rookie class of 2015, then you haven't been paying very much attention this season. The injection of youth into America's pastime this year is almost unprecedented, with at least a dozen players throwing their caps into the ring for Rookie of the Year Awards.

Kris Bryant, Carlos Correa, Francisco Lindor, Joc Pederson, Matt Duffy ...

The craziest part of the Class of 2015's incredible performance is that there's so much variety. Whether you're into power or speed, walks or walk-offs, there's a first-year player with that must-watch skillset.

With this in mind, we sat down and aimed to take the best parts of the best players in MLB's 2015 class to create a perfectly proportional rookie capable of mashing dingers, throwing out runners and otherwise dominating the game in a way we've never seen before.*

It's kind of like in 1490 when Da Vinci drew what's commonly referred to as the "Vitruvian Man," a human form in superimposed positions to represent the perfectly proportioned body in accordance with design of ancient Roman architect Vitruvius.

Here's baseball's Vitruvian Rookie: The One True Rookie of the Year comprised of the best parts of the best young talents the game has to offer.

Joc Pederson's eyes -The Dodgers outfielder has an OBP of .346 and is on-pace to be the first rookie to earn 100 walks since Jim Gilliam in 1963. That good eye of his probably comes in handy when he's bringing back home runs, too:

Carlos Correa's core - The kid is six-foot-four, 210 pounds of pure athleticism. You can't sneak a ball by him, you can't double him up and -- if you make a mistake -- he'll make you pay by launching that ball over the wall. And you don't make plays like this with your glamour muscles:

Francisco Lindor's wrists - You don't hit .320 in MLB -- and you certainly don't homer off Dellin Betances -- without quick wrists. 

Addison Russell's hands - Russell's greatest asset seems to be the grace with which he can play both middle infield positions for the Cubs. He's quick to the ball, quick with his throws and has made a habit of making spectacular plays look routine.

Odubel Herrera's left arm - Herrera ranks third among all rookies in two-baggers and has made a name for himself by taking them away from opposing hitters. He's even done it with some pizazz, like when he made an awkward, falling grab to preserve Cole Hamels' no-hitter:

Eddie Rosario's right arm - Rosario is tied for first among all outfielders with 16 assists. Basically, don't run on this man.

Miguel Sano's chest and shoulders - If you hit a would-be homer so high and so hard that it clanks off the rafters of Tropicana Field and turns into a ground-rule double, chances are you've got some pythons under your jersey sleeves. Sano's used his to mash 17 dingers in just his first 73 career MLB games.

Kyle Schwarber's hips - Turns out you need torque to hit baseballs over walls. Schwarber's been putting his hips to good use, belting 16 homers in 63 games.

Kris Bryant's left leg - You've surely heard the good word about the Cubs third basemen, but a refresher couldn't hurt. Bryant's stride makes him deceptively fast, which is partly why he leads all rookies in doubles and has stolen 13 bases this season. He also has the most home runs, the second-most hits and has the second-most walks of all rookies. Oh, plus that stride of his came in handy when he walked the Cubs off back in July:

Corey Seager's right leg - Seager has hit plenty since his early September call-up, but that right leg of his has helped the 6-foot-4 shortstop throw out runners from deep in the hole:

Billy Burns' feet - Billy Burns' feet must be doin' something right for him because the A's outfielder leads all rookies with 26 steals. 

MLB's Vitruvian Rookie: It's greater than the sum of its parts.
