Votto is the best player there without a doubt to me but Phillips wouldn't be a awful pick.

my choice will probably not be very popular, but since you won't have another pick for a while, you REALLY can't afford a mistake with this one.

i would go with justin morneau.

I agree with most of the others. With Votto's upside and age he is almost a no brainer in this situation. Take Votto and don't sweat it.

Thanks on mine.

Pretty much my thoughts. I love Votto's ceiling and Hanson is too much of a risk in this position.

Guess I'm in the minority but I like Morneau over Votto too, and if you're going 2b, I'd rather have Hill over Phillips.

I like Morneau over Votto and I also like Hanson over Wainwright. Hitters are safer picks than pitchers so I would take Morneau. I like Phillips but I think we've seen his peak and although its solid, I would much rather have Morneau. Thanks for your help with mine.

I'd go with Votto. I expect big things of him to begin with, and it gives you another high ceiling bat in case Morales falters a bit (I'm not entirely convinced he's as good as he looked last year).
