Prince Fielder
Ryan Howard
Chase Utley
Troy Tulo

Tier 2 -
Jason Bay
Justin Upton
Jose Reyes
Ryan Zimmerman
Cole Hamels
Yovani Gallardo

No love for Doc? I was really leaning towards him as a top target.

problem with doc is if you skip keeping a top SP the dropoff isn't as bad as the dropoff from say utley or tulo to other people at their positions

Utley. Prince and Tulo are nice, but the dropoff at 2B is much sharper in NL than in mixed, while it's the reverse for 1B and SS.
Zimmerman over Upton, but it's so close I could go either way
Billinsley, the rest aren't close
