No credit for Zim draft. Manny Acta would have drafted him. Marge Schott would have drafted him. A 4 year old would have drafted him. That's when you do a happy dance that a player like that falls to you and throw out your 1st round scouting.
Haha! Zim didn't "fall" to us. We had the 4th pick and the other 3 above him were concensus top 5 picks. Look at that '05 draft. Here's the top 12:
1. Justin Upton - Arz
2. Alex Gordon - KC
3. Jeff Clement - Seattle
4. Zim
5. Ryan Braun - Mil
6. Ricky Romero - Tor
7. Troy Tulowitski - Col
8. Wade Townsend - TB
9. Mike Pelfrey - NYM
10. Cameron Maybin - Det
11. Andrew McCutchen - Pit
12. Jay Bruce - Cin
That's a really successful top of the draft.
