Of the three, utley...kinsler... and pedroia. Who do you take and why.
This is so i can make a better choice in my upcoming draft.
These are my leagues categories.
Batting (9): H, AVG, HR, TB, BB, OBP, R, RBI, SB

Utley
Kinsler
Pedroia
Utley is the most proven of the three, he's shown he can produce at a top-7 level.
Kinsler has shown the tools that he can approach 30-30 which obviously would make him a bonafide stud.
Pedroia is slightly overrated because of his MVP award, playing for the Red Sox and East Coast Bias, but the fact is last year he wasn't all that much better than Kemp/Abreu/Victorino who can all be had a bit later. I know position scarcity factors in, but I'd rather have Kemp in the 3rd with Jose Lopez in the 9th then Pedroia in the 3rd and Vernon Wells in the 9th....

I agree with the order and the Utley/Kinsler analysis. I'd rather have Pedroia in a draft than Kemp, and there should still be a lot of good OF options in the 9th round of most drafts so that you won't ever have to pick Wells (which you shouldn't).
