With the first pick in the MLB Rule 4 draft, the Chicago Cubs select . . .?

The consensus in the rumor mill is Miami area HS CF Albert Almora, if he makes it to #6. But there are other names floating out there.

An overflow thread will go up at 7:00 pm. If a third one is needed, I'll add it later.

Remember, the Cubs select at #6, #43 and #56.
