Who would you select if you had the first pick in the draft? Is it always Best Player Available for you in that position?

I wait for the 1st overall pick then pick a player better than his.

I would have gone with Hannes. His nickname is "say hey" as a pitcher. I'm thinking future double threat.

Really hard call for me. I almost went with Radke, who I think will be amazing- if he fully develops. I didn't want to take that chance, especially given both have good intangibles. And ya know, being lefty never hurts. But honestly, I think all 3 of those pitchers will be amazing.
