		<description><![CDATA[Not sure I see a potential star in the top 10, tbh.  Tilson, possibly I guess, but he looks a bit more like a potential Dexter Fowler-type to me, and not sure he&#039;ll develop anything like Rasmus-esque power.  For a HS pick, I&#039;d actually say he looks surprisingly polished but lacking in huge upside.  The rest of the top 10 seems like massive reaches (Peoples-Walls, McElroy), solid, role-player college guys with limited upsides (the pitcher we took in the 5th, Martini, Mills, Miranda), or decent-looking HS guys who might end up in the majors (Ehrlich, Jenkins).  In a way, it feels to me like they wanted to frame it as a high-upside draft, but didn&#039;t really want to spend a lot of money doing so.  There are some intriguing upside guys in the later rounds, though, I grant you.

I really liked the Ehrlich pick, though, everything I&#039;ve read seems to suggest he&#039;ll be a high-end defender, and just needs to round out his hitting to make it to the majors, although I guess we said the same about Cody Stanley and he&#039;s still struggling his way up through A-ball (although admittedly he was picked much later in his career, in development terms, so the org has more opportunity to develop Ehrlich&#039;s swing into something workable).  The little bits of video I&#039;ve seen of him hitting look very raw though, and, to my entirely uneducated eye, not particularly impressive, but the possibility that he&#039;s put on a bit more muscle and is showing power upside is encouraging.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am always intrigued by up the middle prospects with raw power as their hit skill.  This in a way is an exact opposite of the Kolten Wong pick.

People might criticize this draft but it was filled with a lot of boom or bust players with high ceilings.  There is a potential for a star in this draft.]]></description>
