I've heard a Daniel Murphy type comp with the bat on Franklin. Murphy is another guy without any real above-average tools, he just has good strikezone control and pitch recognition and maximizes his talent at the plate.
If Franklin adds a little meat and turns into an above-average defensive SS with an 800+ OPS swith-hitting stick (Franklin is stronger from the left of the plate) thats an excellent player.
I don't know...my gut says this is a good pick. Although ya, I hate the Baron pick and I'm lukewarm on the others.
We'll see though..Ackley alone makes this draft a HUGE success.
