M-Cab (next years first round)

[BaseballFann0008]

Weve had this thread before, but times have changed.

Is M-cab a first rounder next year?

Heres how I have it

1. Pujols
2. Arod
3. Vlad
4. Soriano
5. Tejada
6. Ortiz
7. Manny
8. Bay
9. Teixera
10. Cabrera

I do now believe he will go in the first round next year.

what do you guys think?

Bay 8th overall??? Wow.

I wouldn't have Tejada that high, although someone will probably take him first round. With Soriano it depends on where he ends up. I also think someone will probably take Johan and/or Abreu in the first round. But MCab is definitely a first rounder. I'd probably take him somewhere between 4th and 6th overall, especially with 3B eligibility.

I can only see Bay going in the first round if it is a keeper league. Also, most people around here put Migs directly in front of Tex, instead of the other way around, but they are probably both first-rounders.

M-Cab will go 1st round.
Bay will not.

M-Cab will go 1st round.
Bay will not.

I agree with this. Do you think Bay is a 2nd rounder?

Bay actually outperformed Cabs by $2 according to the site I go by. It all depends if Bay keeps running, then I definitely think he is end of the first/second round material.

Yes, but will Bay be perceived as 1st/2nd round material? If you're playing in a very competitive league maybe, but otherwise you'd be spending a high draft pick on someone you can pick up a couple rounds later.

I think Bay will go late 2nd or early 3rd.

Bay is definitely a 1st rounder. Even with that crappy team behind him he found a way to score a ton and get plenty of rbis. Just think what can happen if the pirates' lineup gets a little better. Miggy should also go in the 1st. That could change if the marlins deal Delgado.

You may be right that he'll produce like a first rounder, but I agree with the idea that in most leagues he won't go quite that high. I think you're probably safe waiting for your second pick. Also, that's a big "IF" about the Pirates' lineup...I see little reason to look for significant improvement there. I don't think I'd project higher numbers for Bay than he received this year. Not there was anything wrong with those...
