Yes, he was probably taken is some respect due to signability, but we got a top prospect. Maybe Stodolka? Seems as if some "experts" were questioning that pick.

All three of the players you mentioned weren't worthy of the selection, and I'm talking pre-draft. Maybe Stodolka? WTF? Butler, of course. He didn't have a position coming out.
The Royals aren't in this position b/c they were doing things the right way in the draft.
