Here's my take:

1. Adrian Gonzalez
2. Jose Reyes
3. Justin Upton
4. Robinson Cano
5. Brian McCann
6. Jacoby Ellsbury
7. Josh Johnson
8. Dan Haren
9. Josh Beckett
10. Jose Bautista

I'd also consider Carlos Quentin in lieu of Bautista, but you've already got Upton and Ellsbury in the OF and Bautista would give you a solid 3B for next year. I'm not sure what to make of his breakout season and whether it's a Brady Anderson-like fluke (most likely) or something that's repeatable (not likely), but he's got a good shot at 50 HRs and 40 is a given at this point. There will be someone out there willing to pay a pretty price for a 40+ HR 3B and I'd recommend cashing in ASAP.
We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then, is not an act, but a habit.

I'm going to try and trade the following players as a 2 for 1 trade to get a better keeper, I'm thinking that Pagan, Quentin, Batista, Pena, Beckett, ande Haren might draw interest from a weak team and Johnson, Dickey, and Perez I'm hoping someone wants to go young...Unlikely I know but it never hurts to ask..Mostly I'm thinking of something like Haren and Bautista for a better 3B, something like that

3B Chris Johnson
OF Ángel Pagán
OF Carlos Quentin
Util José Bautista
BN Carlos Peña
DL Magglio Ordóñez
SP Josh Beckett
SP Ervin Santana
P Chris Pérez
P Dan Haren
BN R.A. Dickey
