How do they know when they are ready? This team does NOT cut veteran hitters. They are only replaced when injured. How is this a better upside than Miranda? In any way?
so, by default, the hitters are high picks.....so, it makes sense the hitters they value are high picks......I'm not sure you are arguing what you think you are.
I mean, its a demonstrable fact that picking earlier increases your odds of getting better players. It's not even debatable. It's no guarantee, but I think people really struggle with odds....
