Getting the #1 Pick Sucks

So mission accomplished on getting the #1 pick, but it was not a terribly fun process so I thought I'd try to get some conversations started about avoiding the 2021 #1 pick, as Rancid for Rocker just doesn't have the same ring to it as Tank for Tork. I'd love to add an ace, some bullpen arms, and a big bat or two. The Giants prospects (Bart, Luciano, Ramos, Corry, etc.) probably aren't going anywhere, but that leaves plenty of good prospects and youngsters including

#1 (I'm pretty settled on Torkelson, MLB's #4 prospect, the highest a draftee has ranked since Bryce Harper was BA's #1 in 2011)
#31
Luzardo
Canning
Kopech
Downs
Paredes
Harrison
Alcantara
Reynolds
Apostel

Also like everyone else this time of year would love to do some roster consolidation and trade a few lottery tickets for a single higher floor guy
