The following is a pretty decent and interesting assessment of the Pirates former overall #1 selection.

Of interest is the other #1 selections in 1996 that didn't make it, and that the guy who turned out to be the best major leaguer drafted that year, Roy Oswalt, was selected in the 28th round!!
As I said yesterday, scouting and drafting is an inexact science.
