By pure luck, the team with the best record in the American League is also picking No. 1 overall in Sunday's Major League Baseball draft in Fort Worth, Texas. The Cleveland Guardians entered the draft lottery in December with a 2% chance at the top pick and exited with seven months to decide on whom they would choose.

They still haven't declared their intentions and among evaluators, there is no unanimity as to who deserves to go first.
