I would like to get some thoughts on Hanson and Snider. Obviously these are two of the prize prospects looking to make their clubs out of Spring Training and as of now are flourishing.
I recently drafted a yahoo team and with my 20 and 21 picks I went with Kenshin Kawkami and Hong-Chi Kuo. If Hanson and Snider make their respective clubs out of Spring Training you would think they would be put in starting rules, right? If so I would believe both would hold more value than the two imports, right?
Thoughts on what others believe and would do.

Snider has already been given a starting role.
I wouldn't assume Hanson would be given a starting role. It's quite possible he get's the Joba treatment to keep his innings down... If you're not familiar with the concept - he is put into the pen for the first month or two to limit his innings and then he will be given a starting spot - the 5th spot at that so they can skip him when the schedule allows, again to limit his innings.

I hope Hanson does NOT get the job right away, so I can steal him in the $3-$4 round and have him at the ready. I always try and get 2 prospects, since we carry 10 pitchers and start only 6.
