I like the picks here and the logic behind both. Stewart would be a great get at the #31 pick. I see him as this years version of Kyle Schwarber, who the Cubs swooped in and got with last years 1st rounder. I think he has a big-time, big-league bat that will play well and fast.
As far as Aiken goes, you have to be sure about the health of the elbow and be ready to write a nice, oversized check for the slot. Two steals before the second round would really help the post-draft grade for the Giants.

18. San Francisco Giants
Brady Aiken, LHP
The Giants tend to slant toward college talent but with Aiken, they could get a top of the rotation talent at 18th overall. The status of his elbow is unclear but the potential is worthy of this pick.
31. San Francisco Giants
D.J. Stewart, OF, Florida State
D.J. Stewart is a Kung Fu Panda knockoff as a LF. It only makes sense that he is the pick for the comp pick for Panda. I love his bat and I truly think this would be a steal for the Giants.
