I know there's guys like Colvin and Cashner that are highly rated on a lot of hype and I understand that's just how it is, but I think there's guys like Marquez Smith and Hung-wen Chen who just don't get enough credit. I don't know if they should really be rated above the Colvin's of the world, but I see plenty more potential in them then Colvin.
I would love to see a ranking put together on highest ceilings or something like that.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Colvin sucks and will never make it to MLB. I think most people on this planet agree with me on that.

Because he's a pretty good defensive player and bats lefty, I think he'll make it to the bigs, but not in the way most of us thought when he was drafted.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
The way I remember it, pretty much everyone was pissed when he was drafted. He was projected to go in round 3-5. We only had a 1st and a 5th (Samardzija) so we took him with the 13th overall pick.
