I've never done a roto league before but I would probably stick with Pujols.

I would hope Pujols falls to me at pick 5 or possibly Reyes. But, you should be able to get one of Hanley, Pujols, ARod, Reyes, Wright. So which ever one falls to you I would take.

please help my posts...thanks

If Pujols falls to you, grab him!

Han Ram
A-Rod
D. Wright
Pujols
Reyes

That's a good top 5 to have, imo.

I just saw the CBS Mock ADP. Pujols at 11 is absurd. So is Johan Santana at 2nd and Han Ram at 9th, Verlander at 20th, Peavy 13th and so on and so on.

Pick that list a part and it has as much credibility as Paris Hilton preaching abstainence.

5th is an easy position to pick at. You basically pick the leftovers of the top 5. If you pick anybody else you're nuts. The top 5 is of course A-Rod, Hanley, Pujols, Wright and Reyes. Whoever isn't picked out of those guys is your pick

Cbs's rankings right now seem to include last years avg draft positions. I have done a few mocks with them and the top 5 are the ones you have listed here. Once they reset the rankings to only include this years drafts it will change ;-D
