ask me about fantasy baseball v.2007

[ftball0000]

In draft #1 of 2 tonight I am in a weird points H2H league. 10 teams w/ the following point values
hitting
r=1
h=1
2b=2
3b=4
hr=5
rbi=2
sb=2
bb=1
k=-1
pitching
ip=1
w=20
l=-5
sv=5
h=-1
er=-1
bb=-1
k=3

any suggestions on a draft strategy to take? Value SP more than usual?

Here is the rumor on the 1st 6 picks
Santana
Pujols
Reyes
Ortiz
Howard/A-Rod
Utley
then me

I'm thinking either Howard or A-Rod whoever doesn't get taken

Thoughts? comments?

thanks,

i'd take soriano, giving you the combo of power and speed that could really make him takeoff. roughly calculating, soriano's numbers last year make him less valuable than howard but more valuable than arod. this year howard might not get enough pitches to make it back to that many hrs, and soriano plays in a smaller park. my 2 cents.
