What he is saying is draft the best player and player who projects to be the most productive at the spot. That means no more Trevor Holder's. Strasburg was easily the best player in that draft. He was MLB-ready the day he was drafted.

Right.  Don't choose a college player who is a lesser talent simply because he's older and closer to MLB ready, if the younger guy is a greater talent.  On the other hand, if the college player has it going for him (Zimmerman, Zimmermann, Strasburg for three), go for it.
