Don't be too sure Bill Bavasi would know what to do with the #1 pick.
Last time he got it, he drafted Darin Erstad.

Since when am I here to HELP you? :-P
I have two jobs on this blog: putting down Bavasi, and being a retarded fanboy about Joe Saunders. HELP was negotiated off the contract for being too vague.
~Till the Halo burns out...
by Zu Long on Jul 3, 2008 6:34 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Bavasi could have done worse than Erstad.
While he wasn’t a tremendous player like all teams would like a #1 pick to be, Erstad was a solid contributor offensively for most of his career. And, if I remember correctly, he also played a pretty good outfield.
Take a look at the years before and after that 1995 draft. The #1 overall picks were Paul Wilson and Kris Benson. That would have been worse.
by schismatix on Jul 3, 2008 6:33 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
True enough.
But I objected to the Erstad decision because we picked a guy who was near major-league ready at a position WE DIDN’T NEED. Our OF was Tim Salmon, Jim Edmonds, and Garret Anderson. All in their early-mid 20s. We were fine in the outfield. Picking up quick to the majors outfielder with high skills but low tools using the number one pick made NO SENSE.
~Till the Halo burns out...

Also, Kris Benson looked like a great pick until the injury post-2000
He was never really the same after that.
