Well there goes my dream pick. LaPorta is unreal. The question is where does he play in the future.

 

You guys are calling him an overdraft, but I think he is talented enough to fit in this range. Signability dropped him a bit last year and he's probably an easy sign this year despite being a Boras guy.

David Price is nothing more than a #2 starter. Not a lot of risk in the pick, but there are about four or five pitchers with higher upside.

with 194 Ks in 133 innings this year alone, ill disagree, but im also biased

He's good, damn good, so a number two starter certainly isn't a knock. But I don't think with two pitches and the possibility of a third one, you can be an ace. Aces for me have four pitches they can throw for strikes, while Price has only two right now and his change-up is coming along.
