Who's your pick at #5? And why? Let's see how much better it looks than Hernandez for the Cardinals future.

Drafting pitchers too volatile, injury risk is sooooooooo high.

Take the best RHHer w/that high a draft pick.

Let me try to give you a sincere comment. I know it’s done but in today’s world I don’t understand using early picks on high school kids. I get the talent and the potential but the way the college game and college programs have evolved, it just seems to me you get a much better picture of a player that has played against talented competition in college.

That makes a lot of sense.

It wouldn't surprise me if the Cardinals go with a more advanced, safer, collegiate prospect like Arnold over talented high school prospects like Hernandez or Willits. However, they may gamble on Holliday is he slides to #5. Actually, Arnold was considered the #1 pick in the draft by some earlier in the process.

I wouldn't touch Hernandez and I'd be shocked if Mozeliak would.

I'd like Arquette or JoJo Parker. If it's a pitcher, I like Arnold over both Anderson and Doyle.

I'd be OK with Arnold. It would be a solid choice. It could happen.

You
A consistently dominant starting pitcher. The Cardinals haven't had one in a long time.
The Cardinals don't know how to coach talent (YET). Rob Cerofolio is making changes, but there is still a bunch of damage done.

I just saw Seth Hernandez as the second highest rated player in the draft behind Anderson at #1. Does Hernandez have too much potential for the Cardinals to pass up if he slides to their pick at #5.
I tried to post the link. But it must be a pay site.

Law and McDaniel both have Cardinals taking Willits.
