I would much rather draft a pitcher out of those 5 with my first pick of the draft, but should I pass up Votto, VMart or Hill if they slip past the first 4 picks? Also, is Figgins worth drafting above those pitchers since he's going to be playing 2b this year?
With Butler kept, do you have a spot for Votto at CI or DH? If so, that would be my choice. If you want to go pitcher, either Hanson or Gallardo would be my choice.
Votto is much better than anyone else available. After that, the 3 pitchers I have and Hill are close. I'd rather take Hill and get the leftovers with my next pick.
If Votto isn't picked, I'd definitely go with him in my UTIL spot. Then I can take my pick of the next tier of SP's amongst Baker, Nolasco, etc... though I have a feeling that Votto will be gone since #2 pick kept 4 SP's and no 1b.
But if comes down to Votto and Gallardo, I'd be hard pressed not to take Gallardo.
I know his sub 3.00 era was nice last year but those 8 wins are not too impressive. I know that you can't project wins and all that, but his inability to go deep into games does effect his win probability.
Gallardo wasn't that great last year either and his walk rate was quite high.
