The 31-year-old would be a much better selection than Meadows, whose career has cratered due to injuries. He's already matched a career high with 10 round-trippers this season. Adam Frazier, Piratesįrazier has enjoyed a steady yet unspectacular eight-year run in the majors. The Royals actually drafted Manaea with the 34th pick of the 2013 draft but eventually dealt him to Oakland in the Ben Zobrist trade. Dozier was designated for assignment earlier this season and could never recapture the form he showed in 2019 when he hit 26 home runs with a 123 wRC+. He may not be an ace, but Manaea would've helped solidify a consistently in-flux Kansas City rotation. Manaea has put together four strong seasons of at least league-average production and threw a memorable no-hitter in 2018. The Oklahoma native never reached that status in Colorado, but he's been terrific since signing with the Rangers. Gray was picked third by the Rockies in the real-world version of this draft, but he drops on our list because the players ahead of him blossomed into stars. Meanwhile, Moran isn't playing in the majors this year. Only four MLB relievers have amassed a higher fWAR than Williams over the last 3 1/2 seasons. The 2022 All-Star has also converted 36 saves. The right-hander owns a sparkling 2.02 ERA with 14 K/9 over 187 innings during his five-year career. Williams has been a bullpen ace since winning NL Rookie of the Year in 2020. Frazier, meanwhile, bounced around a few teams and has failed to live up to expectations. His ability to play multiple positions has been a huge boost to his value as well. McNeil developed into one of the game's best pure hitters over his six-year career. Bellinger was one of the game's top players through the first four years of his career, while Stewart threw just 62 innings for Minnesota and was out of the organization by 2019. Things could've been different had they selected Bellinger instead of Kohl Stewart. The Twins haven't had an MVP play for them since 2009 when Joe Mauer took home the award. Gray was a good pick for the Rockies, but Anderson has a more polished resume. The 30-year-old was selected to two All-Star Games thanks to his hitting prowess. 300-plus batting average for four straight seasons between 2019-2022, including an AL-best. Tim Anderson, RockiesĪnderson has done nothing but hit since entering the majors.
#Pick a number between 1 and 100 series
He burst onto the scene, winning NL Rookie of the Year and MVP in his first two campaigns while helping the Cubs snap a 108-year World Series drought in 2016.
Although he's struggled with injuries and a surprising power outage over the past few seasons, Bryant's first few years in the majors should solidify his standing near the top of the draft board.
