“Few pitchers can improve to a Cy Young season in one year, and then have the potential to be even better the following year, but with the overhauled improvement of the Rays infield defense to legendary defensive levels, Price could even exceed last years numbers. Don't be shy - Plus, the division is much weaker now as a whole”

 

“just 27 yrs old and put up better overall stats in 13 less IP comapred to 2011”

 

“Batters know the fastball si coming, and they still can't touch it. Price is a flamethrower that racks up innings.”

 

“Why is he being written off from the top tier?”

“If he bounces back, he's top 3”

“200+ Ks. 20+ win potential, an ERA under 3.00. Not too much to complain about with David Price who is one of the best young pitchers in the game.”

“Kemp was setting historic numbers before getting injured in 2012. He was hitting HRs at a rate that reminded us of Barry Bonds, and now coming into 2013 full healthy with an offence that makes the New York Yankees jealous. Matt Kemp could easily get a 50 HR/120 RBI/50 SB season. The lineup is too good to pitch around him to limit him.”

“1st in AL in WIns (20), ERA (2.56), Quality Starts (25)”

“Can count Kemp among very few w/ .900+ OPS, 30/20 upside”

 

“You could make an argument for picks 4-10 to be in a lot of different orders, and it all comes down to your drafting style and they way that you like to create your rosters. Some people go for power, some for an ace starting pitcher, and others go for a combination of power and speed. Matt Kemp offers the best option at a hybrid player that can contribute in all 5 hitting categories. He is not without risk as he spent two trips to the DL last season due to hamstri...”

 

“He was the top pick of many last season, and when he was healthy, he delivered. Though the days of 40 stolen bases may be over. ”
