I like Cabrera, Kearns, and patterson. But I think that given the opportunity, I might draft Burrell because he just cant be as bad as last year, can he? L. Walk could be solid if he stays healthy.
One Corey Patterson Note - IMO had he not got hurt, this would be his year to have a monster. I think the injury set him back a year. I look for him to put up some decent numbers, but next year, another year away from an injury that traditionally takes about a year and a half to fully recover, i see him having a monster season.

How do you spell "biased?"

[quote="Cornbread Maxwell"]L. Walker
L. Gonzalez
J. Gonzalez
T. Nixon
Hidalgo
Kearns
Patterson
Matsui
I would narrow the list down to those names.
As for which one to take, its a real tossup - you have old and injury prone guys that could hit 40 hrs, +.300 avg, and a young stud who might have 25/25 potential.
Personally, I like giving the bigime sluggers one last look this yr, so thats why Walker and the Gonzalez's top my list.[/quote]
patterson went in the tenth
jaun gone in the 21st (obvisouly he got forgotten, I got him that late)
dmitri went early relatively, as he has thrid eligiblity in yahoo
L. gonzalez the seventh
H. Matsui (18th)
uncommon draft, a few mistakes eraly reverberated for a while
FYI
