The Draft - Call your shot! (poll)

Its tough to decide because they don't have any glaring needs.  The infield appears to be set for years.  The rotation has a lot of depth.

I guess catcher is a possibility.  Outfield maybe.

I'm guessing they just go with the best available.

I'm afraid of another power arm (like Parker).  I might go with a position player because we apparently ave a knack for grabbing quality position players.

Whereas our pitching draft history has been spotty at best.

I voted for Heyward
My only logic is that the one spot that will be open soon is Jenkins spot.  Heyward is supposed to be the best outfielder, and though the Brewers have depth, they don't have an OF stud like a Braun or Fielder.

anoyone in particular?
I just grabbed the top ten guys from a mock draft.  I should have gone with 4 to 14 maybe.

Isn't development an issue?
Yeah, they don't have glaring spots right now, but these guys aren't being slotted in on the major league team right away. That's why I figure you should always go with the best available player instead of looking for a certain position.

Even if you factor the 3-4 years to reach the bigs
That infield would still be in their prime.  I suppose that some of them could be lost to free agency. So if you drafted a SS, in three years you could trade Hardy and extend Week/Braun.

I tend to agree that you should take the best player and let everything work itself out.  Who knows what they will do.
