Hitting cats R HR RBI SB K AVG OPS

My team
Ian Kinsler (Tex - 2B) 165/518 102 18 71 26 67 .319 .892
Lance Berkman (Hou - 1B) 173/554 114 29 106 18 108 .312 .987
Carlos Beltrán (NYM - CF) 172/606 116 27 112 25 96 .284 .876
Carlos Quentin (CWS - LF) 138/480 96 36 100 7 80 .288 .965
Brian McCann (Atl - C) 153/509 68 23 87 5 64 .301 .896
Magglio Ordóñez (Det - RF)178/561 72 21 103 1 76 .317 .87
Bobby Abreu (LAA - RF) 180/609 100 20 100 22 109 .296 .842

Yahoo seems to be all over the Troy Tulowitzki and Rafael Furcal, but down on JJ Hardy, Why? Hardy seems to have less issues and has been more consistent.
I have to pick between the following SS
M Young, Jhonny Peralta and the 3 listed in the previous question.
I am thinking of taking Figgins for my 3B so I think power SS like Hardy, Peralta, or Tulowitski would be smart.
Thanks in advance for the help

Of the SS you mentioned I like

1. Tulo
2. Furcal
3. Peralta
4. Young
5. Hardy

Your other batters seem to have enough power imo so I would take the best available SS and not worry about power.

You need some speed, so out of those guys, Furcal.
Myself, I would sit on it a bit and grab Ryan Theriot a little later.

My ranking of the ones listed...

Tulo
Furcal
Hardy
Young
Peralta

Tulo did show marked improvement in the second half last year with plate discipline, so Ks won't be a huge issue. Ks will kill Peralta's value, as will OPS, since he never takes a walk and hits in the .260-.270 range. Furcal would be a good choice as well, since you need speed and he hardly ever strikes out, but I don't trust his health.
