“Big Papi every season plays like a MVP. He could have had 50 HR/120 RBI if his Achilles did not blow up on him last year. Every season we find a reason not to draft Papi, and he continues to be a BEAST with MVP type production. Take a shot with Ortiz who could easily play like a 1st round pick.”

“J.J. should continue to be a player that hits 20+ HRs with ease. The batting average and RBI numbers could really hurt you, or it could turn out being one of the steals of the draft. Whatever the case, J.J. offers a lot of power for a position that does not offer much.”
