My order

1 - Pure stud. Position matters not. Being LF is a bonus.
5 - 6 Soild innings every 5 days. Even in a hitters park in the AL I'd be shocked to see this guy have an ERA over 3.00
3 - Have to hope that the projections on range and glove are low. The eye and VsR plus speed are what sell me on this.
4 - I'm big on pitching. A guy like this will throw 120 pitches every 4 days and will have a ERA that you want him to throw every 4 days. Having a pitcher with good numbers that can potentially throw 250-300 innings a year takes a ton of strain off your bullpen and means you can go with less bullpen guys and more bench players.
7 - Will probably play 3B rather then RF. Whoops, throws left. Nevermind. Will probably be very good in RF or LF. Contact, eye and running makes this a great leadoff player.
2 - Everyone else will rank the DH higher. I just don't like DH. The batting numbers are high enough to justify ranking this player at 2. Just personal preference.
8 - If the range and arm were each 5 points higher I'd rank this player 2nd or 3rd. Lots of different uses for a guy with good ratings across the board.
6 - The bat is good but range, Glove and Arm might put you in no mans land. This player could be anything from a 2B to CF to only a 1B. Beware.
9 - I want to rank this SS over the number 6 guy just on defense alone but the low VsR and the low Eye coupled with the fact he is a rightie puts him at the bottom of the list.

Nice, thanks, yeah for me those offensive numbers of #1, 2 are hard to pass up. #2's eye being so much higher and higher durability make it a tough call for me. Thanks for the input, I definitely have a clearer picture of who to rank where. Top 5 order are tough

Random question. What are the push/pull ratings on the guys you have ranked 1 and 2 (LF and DH)

I'm guessing this is for your San Antonio team. I'd be tempted to rank the DH higher based off of how much a pitchers park you are playing in. Plus, he will be able to pull to take advantage of the short porch in LF taking advantage of the one spot in the one hitting spot in the park.

That being said, if you draft the SP you have ranked 5th, there is a good chance no one will be on base when he is pitching.

Interesting question. Both are in the mid 40s push-pull, so slight pull hitters

Makes the DH sound even better now to be honest. Between the power and the eye It'll really take advantage of the 0 as opposed to all the negatives for home games.

I'd take one of the pitchers or the DH based on what type of prospects you already have in the system. Yes the LF is good, but given he's a minus defensively anywhere but 1B.
