Zac: I disagree with your assessment. I think the Astros drafted Aiken because they believed they could sign him below slot and then use that extra money to get Nix. I don’t think “can’t miss prospect” factored into their decision. I’m sure they hoped he would be good but I think they were willing to take someone that would allow them to get 2 or 3 good prospects instead of a single “can’t miss” prospects. It is exactly what they did with Correa. That one worked out. This one backfired.
