Nolan Reimold OF
Chris Volstad SP
Elvis Andrus SS
Anthony Swarzak SP

Is there any clear cut, cant miss prospect from this list? There are quite a few I really like, with Bankston looking like the clear best available in my eyes. I'm just wondering what everyone else thinks. Thanks!
some good guys there but I think I'm going to pick Danks. He's a lefty that was 21 pitching in AAA. He just got traded to the White Sox and hasa real shot at the #5 spot in the rotation. He's a little wild but he's really advanced and gets Ks.
Almost half the guys on your list are better than Bankston.
I dont see any cant-miss guys. For roto, my top 3 would be Sweeney, Crowe and Fowler. Then Andrus, Reimold, Patton, Danks, Volstad, Hurley. Definitely would not take a Rockies pitcher like Morales too early, if at all, in a roto league.
P.S. Why have so many people missed the memo that humidors work? If you aren't going to take a Rockies pitcher, you better have second thoughts about Reds, Royals, and Diamondbacks pitchers, too. Coors isn't an outlier anymore, it's just on the upper end -- HUGE difference.
