I'm stumped at which player to take #1 overall... I was hoping for a power hitter with 90+ contact and power but none are available..... These are the top 2 prospects available to me....

RHP - Potentials.... Stamina 62, Control 95, vsL 79, vsR 100, Velocity 87, Groundball/Flyball 67, Pitch Ratings 74, 88, 49, 54, 54 (overall potential 86)

or 

SS - Range 84, Glove 78, Arm Strength 87, Accuracy 80, Speed 100, Contact 73, Power 50, vsL 77, vsR 73, Eye 60, Baserunning 84, Bunt 17 (overall potential 86)

I love the pitcher, but am worried that his stamina will hurt his value..... Should I still take the pitcher over the SS?

Take the pitcher.  The other guys isn't a #1 pick, at all.  The pitcher's Stamina is no problem, especially if he has a Durability in the high 20's or low 30's.  What is his Makeup?  But with 95 Control and 100 vR, with a pitch of 88 he will be terrific.

Yeah the pitcher has 29 durability potential and 95 potential makeup. Stamina is my only concern with him. Aside from that he is Pedro Martinez

It just sucks that when I finally get a team with the #1 overall pick.. the draft class is as bad as I have ever seen.

IF the pitcher hits those #s, he'll be fantastic.  He's easily the pick.  If the hitter could play SS, I'd probably consider it for a little bit, but then still take the pitcher.

That must be an incredibly weak class. The pitcher is the obvious choice between these 2. The position player is not a SS - more of an average hitting player who will have value due to the amount of SB's he will get.
