#1 OA sleeper

Post by billybaseball »

I know most people assume Roch Cholowsky or Justin Lebron are going to be the #1 oa pick but I think Highschool prospect Grady Emerson may have a chance. Small sample size but 7 games in and is hitting .700 with a 1.960 OPS. Also is believed to be at least above average defender at SS and has 0 errors so far. His strong track record playing for the US national team strengthens his case also. He's a way better prospect than Willits was last year.

Cholowsky, Emerson, and Lebron going 1–2–3, with Cholowsky at No. 1

Cholowsky's father Dan was a Cardinal minor leaguer.

Perhaps. All three are legit #1 contenders. Picking the youngest of the three gives you more value especially if he comes in at a lower bonus deal.
