He should have little to no trouble retiring minor-league hitters. John (New Jersey): Hey Keith. In the long run, who would you rather: Weiters or Posey. And is the plan to have Posey start in '10. Thanks Buddy. Keith Law: I ranked Wieters over Posey. Switch-hitter with much more power potential. I think Posey has to spend a year in the minors to show how close his bat is to the majors. RichJ (Connecticut): Better defensive catcher: Buster Posey or Matt Wieters? Keith Law: Posey. James (North East, MD): Is Billy Rowell ever going to figure it out? Keith Law: Signs point to "no." Chip (Richmond, VA): Keith, looking at your top 30 (a convenient cutoff because I want Matusz included), how much difference is there from one player to the next? Were there any players or groups of players that really gave you trouble ranking them? Specifically, I'm thinking of Holland, Anderson, and Matusz. Also, you mention Cameron as a comp for Maybin....what are the chances he turns into Preston Wilson with better D? Keith Law: I started out by grouping players into tiers. Wieters was 1 and Price 2 going in. The next tier had the next 6-7 players, then another group of about 7 guys, and so on. The tiers got bigger as I went along. So no, realistically, the difference between two players at the same position ranked 3 spots apart on my list is probably not worth worrying about. Scott (Philly, PA): Matusz over Tillman? How much weight do you put into Matusz's performance in Arizona? Keith Law: Not much. Tillman is projectable but still pretty raw. Dan (DC): I asked Callis yesterday about David Hernandez, who put up great strikeout numbers in Bowie last year, and he deemed him as one of those guys who struck out a lot of minor league batters but doesn't have the stuff to be any better than a reliever in the majors. Do you agree? Keith Law: I would have said fifth starter, but I don't feel strongly about it. His stuff is fringy, but he commands it well. Mike (Delaware): How would you rank rank the 8 defensive positions in terms of value/importance? Keith Law: SS C 2B CF 3B RF LF 1B. The first five are skill positions. The last three are where you stick the guys who can hit and can't field. Tim (Chicago): Do GM's have significant influence on the draft or is it mostly done by farm directors and scouts? Keith Law: Scouting directors run the draft for just about every team. Farm directors might be in the room but rarely have input until it becomes time to pick org players to fill out short-season rosters. GMs are usually involved in the first pick or first few picks, because the money is higher. Sean (Seattle): If Tillman was still a Mariner ($%&# Bavasi), where would he rank among their prospects? Keith Law: Second. -- 应该没需要翻译的吧? --
