Rendon is obviously the #1.
...............................
"Along with everybody else, I'd be thrilled to see the Pirates pass on Rendon so we could nab him."
"He is the #1, of course.  I mean, don't get me wrong.  I've got nothing against .800 slugging averages, as a general rule."
"If Rendon didn't tumble all the way to the M's draft slot at #2, as of right now, I'd be hoping..."
"Not necessarily because Springer's the next-best player,"...
.................
About 20% of the sentences in the article emphasize that Rendon's the number 1 and that the Mariners would receive a windfall if the Pirates didn't take him.
If y'can't understand where I'm coming from, saying that Springer's my hope if Rendon doesn't "fall," I guess next time I could say it eight times instead of four.  :- )

A sad state of affairs when the designation "Best Player In The Draft" can only insult a player like Rendon.  Heh!
