    I bolded my top 5 picks. I left Upton out, but he would be close. Kazmir and a few others have been serviceable. The other note is that David Wright was taken in the first round supp. draft this year.

    The first round of this draft actually turned out pretty well. Kinda surprised.

      There are about 7 who have been all-stars and probably another 10-12 who have had good pretty decent careers in the majors.
