Prospect advice

Hey guys,

I don't post on here much but I'm looking for some advice on a trade. Granted these guys are merely throw-ins, but it's better than the free agent talent in the SIM league I'm in. Which do you think have the most upside and best chance of doing well in the bigs (or even get there in the first place):

Adam Cowart (AA - Giants) P

Daniel McCutchen (AAA - Yankees) P

Kelvin De La Cruz (High A - Indians) P

Jose Vallejo (High A - Rangers) 2B

I'm leaning towards the bottom three, however I only get two out of these four. If you were me and had no holes for the immediate future, who would you take?

Thanks again

Cowart

Adam Cowart is the only guy here I know. Adam has a funky underhanded delivery and seems most likely to make it in the majors as either a ROOGY or a one- or two-inning guy. Lefties have 39 hits in 26 innings against him, and from what I have heard, his lefty problems develop the second time through the lineup.

The Giants appear to be moving pitching prospects up to make room for the drafted players, and Cowart seems a very good prospect to move up to Fresno and focus on relief after being a starter thus far.
