~A-Rod falls to the 5 spot.
~Tejada is somewhere up there, if for no reason other than that SS is home to very few productive fantasy players.
~If Soriano could cut down on his K's and increase his AVG he'd easily be #2, but I think he should go there anyway. .277/119/46/95/41 is phenomenal.
~Replace Berkman with Beltran.
~I'd say Mauer is the one that drops to the 2nd round for Tejada. He gets plenty of hits and scores plenty of runs, but 13 HR and 84 RBI really don't constitute a 1st round pick in my eyes. I think he drops to between pick #15 and pick #24. I don't see him falling to round 3.

My strategy is usually to draft 2 starting pitchers and 4 position players in the first 6 rounds, and then taking a closer in round 7. I've found that Joe Nathan is usually still around then, which is odd to me, but I always get him.

After that I like to fill my starting lineup, then draft the rest of my pitchers (of course looking for sleepers). Last year I got Francisco Liriano in every one of my draft because I had a gut feeling he would be amazing, and I think I can say I was right

My Round 1 Mock looks like this....

1. Albert Pujols, 1B
2. Alfonso Soriano, OF
3. Jose Reyes, SS
4. Johan Santana, SP
5. Ryan Howard, 1B
6. Alex Rodriguez, 3B
7. Vlad Guerrero, OF
8. David Ortiz, DH
9. Miguel Cabrera, 3B
10. David Wright, 3B
11. Miguel Tejada, SS
12. Chris Carpenter, SP
