Tejada is a solid player but I'll take the faster guy with a career OPS of .955 versus .808 any time, any day. Even in his worst season since 1997, Arod still outperformed Tejada.

A lot of people would but 3B is so deep that Arod isn't as impressive anymore. I'll pass.
Arod is not a top 4 pick. He will never approach the power numbers he had in TEX. He is no longer SS eligible. He finished 14th overall last yr in standard 12 team 5x5 roto. Why is he a top 4 pick? Hype and familiarity.

Finally RJ was mentioned instead of Arod. In a non keeper, RJ could go 1 or 2 for me. With only a 16-14 record, he outearned Arod, Beltran, Vlad, and Pujols last year. He could win 20-22 this year.
