Yes - look for Billingsly, Milledge, or Quentin in the next round.

I'd strongly consider reading up on Alex Gordon and possibly thinking about him too

Gut feeling tells me Stewart, experts would likely say Milledge.

(I cannot believe Stewart dropped so far in your league, he went 4th in my dynasty.)

I think Carlos Q is the way to go.

He has all the tools you could use and he's not far from helping at the major league level.

um...I took Drew.

The guys listed 1-9 were gone. I guess yall read it wrong.

Just curious, where did Kinsler go?

by **Jenkins** » Sat Feb 25, 2006 2:46 am

Quentin, way to go.

Drew.

Quentin has less upside than the other big prospects. He's closer to the majors and has a better chance of reading that upside, but personally, I would try to hit the home run instead. Drew plays at a much scarcer position (if he moves to 2B, that's scarce, too) and has more potential than Quentin.
