I think that the term, "superstar", is being used very loosely. While I think that many of the guys listed here definitely have the potential to be very good....let's not start labeling them "superstars". The original topic was someone that would take the next step, like Holliday. Holliday was a 2nd or 3rd rounder last year that was bumped to a 1st rounder this year. Hanley Ramirez was another.
So, that would be someone that was great last year but even moreso this year....maybe if you think a Granderson improves, which I do not. However, you get my point, I hope.

I'll have to look it up, but I don't recall Holliday being taken that early last season. I could be wrong, though.

That's what I was thinking. IDK why people are naming guys like Adam Loewn and Matt Garza lol. Guys that I wouldn't be surprised take the next step into 1st round status are Troy Tulo, Alex Rios, Corey Hart, Chris B Young
