Am I nuts for considering Rollins or Utley with the #6 pick

Postby PhilliesPhan » Fri Mar 20, 2009 9:14 pm

My draft is in 15 minutes and I am leaning towards either Rollins or Utley instead of Sizemore or Braun...am I a home or does this make some sense to you guys too?

My thought is there are no other Shortstops after Rollins that I am thrilled with and Utley is simply a stud at second base which rarely produces such players.

I'd take either M-Cab, Braun, or Sizemore with the 6th overall pick. I'd rather build with power first than go with speed and so, I wouldn't consider Rollins. You can get Drew, Tulowitzki, Hardy, or Peralta, all of whom are decent SS alternatives. The bullish news on Utley's hip is great, but I'd go with either the 40 HR threat in Braun/M-Cab or the 30/30 man in Sizemore.
