#2 overall Pujols or Wright? WHIR

[Captain Furtah]

bump..draft in an hour, who should I take with Second pick?

I think I have it...

Hanley
Wright
Pujols
Miggy
Reyes

but its a Yahoo league and Miggy is eligible at 1B and 3B and I think he has a better lineup than Pujols and Hanley and more power potential than Wright...

Very close, but I'd rather have Pujols, at least for the big average boost right out of the gate. 3B is scarce, but I wouldn't have a problem falling back on Davis, Youkilis, Beltre, or Zimmerman.

I might be a bit of a homer since I own Pujols in two keeper leagues, but I'm leaning his way. You should be able to get Longoria or Aramis with one of your next picks, and I like Pujols with one of those two better then Wright with Gonzalez or Morneau. I also would give serious consideration to Reyes if you are worried about position scarcity. He's such a SB machine, and I would say is a substantial bit better then Rollins. Maybe consider Reyes then best 3B, then Gonzo, that would be a nice set of triplets. Maybe even go Reyes, best 3B and Brandon Phillips and really put yourself in the upper echelon at SS and 2B. All in all I'd go Pujols though. That's just me. If you have a second, I could use help with mine. Thanks in advance.

Well I went with Wright as I didn't think Longoria would make it back to me at pick 23. I ended up taking Morneau in that slot but Longoria was still on the board. So I have Wright and Morneau instead of Pujols and Longoria. I may have missed out a little on upside, but I am still happy with my two picks as I know I will get solid production out of both and niether has any injury history or '2nd year slump' concerns. I guess we will see...
