BEST DRAFT

Cubs. The Cubs are pinning a lot of their future big league hopes on Corey Patterson, David Kelton and Jeff Goldbach–the first three players they drafted in 1998.

WORST DRAFT

Mariners. No one but the Mariners saw obscure small-college lefthander Matt Thornton as a first-round pick. They didn’t sign their second-rounder, already dealt away their third- and fourth-round picks and their fifth-rounder has struggled in Class A.

MOST ASTUTE PICK

Adam Dunn, of Reds (2)

BIGGEST OVERSIGHT

Brian Cole, of Mets (18)

BIGGEST FIRST-ROUND REACH

Matt Thornton, lhp, Mariners (22nd pick)
