If the league was starting over and you had the first two picks in the draft, who would you take to build your franchise around? One hitter and one pitcher.

Mike Trout and Stephen Strasburg.

Starlin Castro and Stephen Strasburg.

I wouldn't take Strasburg personally, I don't think his arm will last long term. Very violent delivery. A lot of stress on his shoulder.

I would take Felix Hernandez. He's only 2 year older than Strasburg, but is already established as not only an ace, but extremely durable ace. He's been throwing 230 innings each of the past 4 years and hasn't missed a start. I like his delivery and it doesn't look like he's the type of guy who will fall apart and have arm issues. Big game pitcher

I would take Stanton as my hitter. What he did at 22 and in his 2nd full season was incredible, it took Mickey Mantle 5 seasons to show the type of power Stanton has shown since last season.

Only reason I would pass on Trout is because he's only had that one big season. Want to see him do it again. I'm sure he will though.

I like the way you think man, lol. Our posts had to be seconds apart, because yours wasn't there when I replied.
