If they didn't pick Swanson, Jobu would have been very angry. This one wasn't as big a lock as when David Price went #1 to Tampa, but it's as safe as that. In short, Swanson has the highest floor of anyone in the draft. His MLB comp is Derek Jeter - and as much as I hate the Yankees, that comp is correct. Swanson's a point guard on the diamond, and if he's not banging the likes of Minka Kelly in a year, I'll eat my hat.
I don't like eating hats.
In short, Swanson is the best position player we've ever had.
