It might help if you post your team (or team so far), SS is rather shallow and rankings might change based on the assets of who is already on your team. Elvis if you need speed. I like A-Cab and Yunel for a little bit of everything. Drew has the potential to be the best of the list but you just never quite know what you're gonna get from him.

Elvis Andrus - 1 ( I am higher on him than most, but he has the speed to steal 50 bases) Asdrubal Cabrera - 3 (Doesn't hurt you in any categories and will have Sizemore and Choo hitting behind him all year) Yunel Escobar - 5 (Sort of an enigma...he could prove me wrong here or he could be easily the worst one on this list) Alcides Escobar - 6 (Andrus-lite who should be the leadoff hitter in Milwaukee) Alexei Ramirez - 2 (Buy in on him after May and you'll get a good player) Stephen Drew - 4 (I am just not a big Drew fan, probably more personal preference than anything although Arizona's offense is pretty good this year)
Alexei Ramirez - I don't think anyone matches his upside on this list Yunel Escobar - May break out even further this year, hitting that magical age period Erick Aybar - I'm probably higher than most on this guy, but he stole a ton of bags in the minors and may hit 10-15 hrs and if he bats leadoff for ANA will score a lot runs Asdrubal Cabrera - Might make strides this year too, seems like a fairly low downside proposition Elvis Andrus - I think he'll regress with the bat but may steal 40 bags
Just depends on these guys, I like Cabrera as a cheap steals source, I think Tejada can put up good SS numbers and is value if he falls deep enough. Drew's got some upside, but I wouldn't set my expectations too high. Everth Cabrera Miguel Tejada Stephen Drew Alcides Escobar JJ Hardy Scott Sizemore
6 Elvis Andrus could steal 40, bats 9th 8 Asdrubal Cabrera 7 Yunel Escobar solid 5 Alcides Escobar better hitter then Andrus 2 Alexei Ramirez 2nd most upside 1 Stephen Drew most upside imo 10 Erick Aybar 3 Miguel Tejada old, but batting 4th 4 Everth Cabrera should steal 35+, 50 someday, bats leadoff 9 JJ Hardy could be the bargain if he regains power stroke 10 Scott Sizemore could go 15/15

Batting behind Salty and Davis probably won't get you many RBI opportunities and batting in front of Borbon put you two away from Mike Young with uncertainty in between. I am a big Rangers fan, but doubt I will end up with Andrus or Borbon because I think they will go too high for their relative worth.
