My 2 cents.... Recap of Round 1

NJT -Tim Lincecum. Traded up to get the Top Pitcher in Draft.
GRK- Yovani Gallardo. Got their man and the second best Pitcher.
GCG- BJ Upton. Traded down with NJT. BJ is an Outstanding CF/2B the sky is the limit.
OJW- Dustin Pedoria. Could be starting second baseman of OJW till 2020.
ILL- Trot Tulowitzki. Outstanding SS moving Hanley Ramirez to DH.
PCM- Kevin Kouzmanoff. 3B-man could be another draft day find for BA.
TRY- Hunter Pence. Young OFer who has he gifts to be a 5-tool player.
NYK- Matt Kemp. Great young hitter. Looks to be starting RF for years to come.
MSU- Ryan Braun. Best young hitter in the Draft. Bess couldn't pass on the gift.
LCC- Rich Hill. Young Lefty with the run support of LCC could win 15-20 games.
LVI- Dice Matsuzaka The perfect fit for LVI ballpark, where deep fly balls turn into long outs.
SPL- Alex Gordan. Best young 3B-man in the draft. Minor league POY, could repeat it in the Majors.
ILL-1 Carlos Pena. Hands down the Best power hitter in the draft. Gives ILL want they have lacked.
TRY-2 John Maine. 4th best starter in draft. TRY picked up an outstanding arm.
ILL-3 Kelly Johnson. Young 2B-man who should step in and start Opening Day.
DFW- Jeremy Guthrie. Much needed starter and the perfect age for DFW Staff (32 years young!)
