Personally I would take Howard with an ADP of about 10. Power is hard to find and he's having a pretty good spring training. I am expecting a better start for Howard this year.

Howard and Upton. Upton will stroke more HRs this year as his shoulder has been repaired. Could be 20-40 or 30-30 or 30-40 man.

I would take Howard and Pedroia. Howard gives you power and Pedroia with Hram and Markakis will offset his BA. Also gives you a good combo of power and speed to start your team with.

good luck

I have a feeling that Soriano, Upton, Howard, and Hamels will be gone by the time my picks rolls around...so im thinking about grabbing alexie at 8 (4th round due to 3 keepers) and trying to get billingsly or beckett with pick 16...
1.)what do you think about this strategy...
2.)Is there anybody on this list that I should avoid in the first 2 round (really round 4-5)
3.)Is there anybody on the middle to the end of the list that are good value picks in these rounds

Thanks for the help so far...if u need some help just post a link and i'll do my best!

I say go after howard if hes there... if not would grab Bills, he won't be there at 16... then at 16 would look to snag Phillips, he gives you great power numbers from the 2B and great combo with speed... that would be the best circumstance i think for you... if you do somehow get howard i would still look for either bills IF hes there at 16 otherwise Beckett or Phillips again at 16... hope it helps!

help me out...
