McLouth will provide modest help in at least three categories, but his batting average could be a killer. He's not a bad pick 10-12 rounds or so into your draft, but he generally won't last that long. Pass on him and grab someone like Torii Hunter later on. .265-90-20-75-20 in 520 AB

Positives / Upside	McLouth possesses both power and speed, and he has smacked at least 20 homers two straight seasons and and stolen at least 19 bags three straight years. More of the same should be in store for 2010. .275-95-25-85-25 in 560 AB
Negatives / Downside	McLouth can stripe 'em and swipe 'em all right, but at what cost? His batting average has dropped each of the past two season, and the .276 he posted back in '07 is looking like the exception rather than the rule. With all of the cheap speed available out there, McLouth's modest skill set simply isn't worth the price. .260-75-18-65-18 in 470 AB
Recommendation	Only at a discount
Draft Position	93
