MOD II: Washington Nationals

This is the second and final MOD for the Nationals. I hope to use this up to and during the draft on Sunday to lay out and modify our draft strategy.

The original MOD is located here.

With the signing of Max Scherzer, each of the Nationals draft picks from Rds. 2-5 has shifted forward one slot. We now choose at:

#6, 31, 49, 67, 70, 100, 130, 160

This will be a varied draft. While I want to choose the best player available in most cases, I hope to address different areas of the team and come away with at least one premium talent in each of the following areas:

College Pitchers
High School Pitchers
Corner Infielders
Middle Infielders
Outfielders
Catcher (...possibly)

I'm not a very big fan of drafting relievers in the first five rounds, unless I feel they have the repertoire to start in the future. Catcher, as well, is a position that may be neglected, as most of the premium talent will go early, and I'm not sure the ones that remain on the board will be worthy of a Round 1-5 pick.

What follows is my Top Ten lists for each positional breakdown outlined above. If I can come out of the draft with 8 of these 60 players in hand, I will dance with joy. Realistically, though, 4-5 of these would be a satisfactory haul. Feedback is greatly desired, especially if you feel I'm drastically over-or-under ranking particular players.
