in a ten team league there is now way i would trade up unless the offer was heavily in your favor. in a league that small there is plenty of talent to go around if you plan and draft well.

agreed.
#5 means that you get one of Vlad, Soriano, Helton or Beltran. All are worthy selections. Getting #15 on the way back means that you get an ace or a stud MI.

I agree with tlef. In a 10 team league there will be very good players around for a few rounds.
There will come a day when Barry Bonds leaves baseball, and everything about the game will be the better for it.
I think it's smart, if the league you are in alows trading picks, and you do get 1 or 2 to trade down and try to get 2 picks for one preferably their 1st round and maybe 3,4, or 5. As Tlef said, the players you get in those rounds are crucial to your success for the year.
Don't trade up. You'll be able to get one of the following:
1. A Rod
2. Pujols
3. Soriano
4. Vlad
5. Beltran
6. Prior
7. Helton
On the way back you can grab Tejada, or Wells, or Man Ram, or Giambi, or possibly even Bonds if people are freaked about out his trainer, or Schilling ...
6 is a great position to be drafting in. You'll do fine.

In a 10-player snake draft, I traded my No. 2 spot in the draft (not just the #2 pick, but the actual spot) and my No. 11 pick to a Pujols fan for his No. 5 spot and his No. 7 pick.
