Justin Upton is truly an elite talent. He's one of baseball's few players that fills up all five categories on a consistent basis. The former number-one pick turned in an excellent season that had him amass 26 HR, 86 RBI, and 84 R, all while hitting .300 and swiping an impressive 20 bags. We can only assume that the 22 year-old will only improve on those stats this season. He's a top-five outfielder and will come off draft boards in the first two rounds. If you want him on your roster, you'll have to pay the price, but he should be worth it. .290-100-30-105-25 in 560 AB

Positives / Upside	Upton is an elite outfielder for good reason. He'll fill up all five categories and create a huge disparity between him and almost every other outfielder. .300-110-35-115-30 in 580 AB
Negatives / Downside	The possibility for the dreaded sophomore slump. .280-90-25-95-15 in 530 AB
Recommendation	Go the extra dollar
Draft Position	18
