Should I draft Donovan Tate?


Hi,

I'm in a 16-team dynasty league which holds a one-round draft during the season to pick first-year minor leaguers. There is also a five-round winter draft for minor leaguers as we build up a farm system.

I have just made a trade which gets me the #3 pick of the first-year players. I also have the #13 pick.

Ideally, I'd like to draft one hitter and one pitcher.

I'm assuming Strasburg and Ackley will go #1 and #2, but I'm not sure who to take next.

Donovan Tate went to the Padres with the real #3 pick, but I'm not sure I trust the Padres (Matt Bush!) and the thought of him hitting in Petco doesn't excite me.

So who do you think I should go for?

Gamble on Tate at #3? Take another hitter at #3? Or pick a top pitcher and grab a hitter at #13?


Thanks.
