Monster Talent requires initial caps.  Term of art.

Butler is my monster talent not Blocker's.

Here's the latest on Blocker-proclaimed super-prospect (or is it Monster Talent) 
Billy Butler.  As many of you may recall, Blocker seemed to feel that I was 
premature in proclaiming Alex Gordon KC's third baseman of the future, in light 
of Butler's presence at that position.  I politely disagreed.  Without 
disparaging Butler (which I would never do, of course), I contended that Butler 
might well be destined for another position.  Looks like KC agrees. 
Single-A High Desert's Billy Butler went 3-for-5 with a double and two RBI 
yesterday in his return from a bruised hand.
Butler played left field on Monday and that will likely remain his position for 
the foreseeable future. The decision to draft Alex Gordon had to play some role 
in the decision to move Butler now, but the 2004 first-round pick had no future 
at third base anyway.
