The following is an early prediction of the 2010 draft. Look for this draft to be more focused on high school players since this year’s college class is not great. While several high school players have great potential, they are worth avoiding on fantasy teams since they won’t be in the major leagues any time soon. Here is an awesome draft ranking site, and where our rankings conflict, it might be wise to take this guy’s opinion.
- Washington Nationals Bryce Harper (C, College of the Nevadas)
- Pittsburgh Pirates Anthony Ranaudo (P, LSU)
- Baltimore Orioles Christian Colon (SS, Cal St. Fullerton)
- Kansas City Royals Drew Pomeranz (LHP, Ole Miss)
- Cleveland Indians A.J. Cole (RHP, Winter Springs, FL)
- Arizona D’Backs Jameson Tallion (P, Woodlands, TX)
- N.Y. Mets Bryce Brentz (1B, Middle Tennessee State)

Good mock list.
You mentioned that other list… I avoided putting that one in my research. My comments on that draft can be found on that same page, two entries down.
