    Moore would be an ok pick. Seems like Carlos Santana; a lefty bat who can really hit that you hope sticks at catcher long enough to have a few star level seasons before moving to 1B where he settles in as a solid average everyday player.

    I'd rather have Christian Moore.

    Hard to ignore his success this year… especially in this CWS run. Has really quick hands and barrels up baseball’s consistency. Solid, athletic build and seems like a Dana type of pick. He and Brice Matthews would be solid position player prospects that you could really start to see forming a solid foundation in the farm.

    Absolutely seems like a Dana pick. Only problem is he's probably limited to 2B/LF CF? because of his arm. Same with Matthews (not because of arm), is he a SS or OF/2B only?

    Unfortunately the Stros are kinda set at 2B/SS for a bit.

    Howevah!!! Moore's the same size as Bagwell so just stick Moore at 1B if he hits ;)
