To be clear, where and why Lawr drafted Aybar has nothing to do with my playing time comment, which I tried (apparently unsuccessfully) to convey in my post.
I was reacting to the global generalization about it being a fool's game to consider playing time. I disagree with that contention.
Again, I am not justifying Lawr's pick because he has a right to feel Aybar will hit leadoff in front of Pujols, etc. and whether or not he should have waited according to Aybar's market value.
I am saying that in general, be it on Feb 13 or April 1, we need to make our best guess with respect to playing time, based on the info available at that time and incorporate that into our evaluation.
