A-Rod in AL-Only (WHIR)

How far would you drop Alex Rodriguez in an AL-only 5x5 Roto draft due to his injury? He should be taken around what number pick?

Maybe just a spot or two but I'm still a big ARod guy. From what I've read, he played with this situation last year. Granted it puts a little doubt in your mind, but I wouldn't drop him more than a couple of slots. He's the kind of guy that if he's on, he can be the number 1 overall player and carry you to the championship. In my opinion, you don't want to give that up for a guy who is good but not spectacular.

Oh wow, I read that fast the first time and I thought you were asking if you should drop A-Rod in an AL only league... lol

That's a tough question when most of the top ten reside in the NL. Taking Grady over A-Rod seems bizarre even know. M-Cab... Maybe. CC Sabathia... Can't do it.

I think I still go for A-Rod first overall. May - October is still a long time.
