Admittedly, I was one of those guys who overdrafted CC a few years back. If I can get a guy like Bobby who has the potential to do 20/100/100/20 in the same range as a guy like Victorino who will do 15/100/70/30, I’m gonna take those 30 extra RBIs and figure out a way to pick up 16 steals.

You can label him risky due to injury concerns, mainly his hamstrings, which are his bread and butter, but “unreliable”? I don’t think so. If he plays and is healthy he’s much more valuable than Abreu.

People were drafting Carl Crawford late first round to early second round a year and two ago, and Victorino is CC LITE. Check the stats (and i know carl was hurt last year) but from 2007 even. He’s a “liter” version.

Now do I wanna take him in round 4, not really!
