This league allows to keep two keepers. Mine were Quentin and BJ.
I had pick #8 and used it on Manny. The first 7 selections were Reyes, Pujols, Sizemore, Tex, Arod, Rollins and Berkman.
My next picks in order were:

R1 - Manny was the highest rated OF with the next two teams would have jumped on. So I knew if I wanted him I would have to grab him there.

R2 - Aramis Rameriz (if I didn't pick him up there I would have to resort on Chipper or Cantu) Atkins, Wright, Longoria were already kept.

R3 - Suzuki (didn't think he would be there)

R4 - Uggla (Last of the top 5 2B available with 5 other teams needing 2B behind me)

R5 - Young (Still SS eligble and completed my IF)

The rest of the draft went highest rated player with pitching being the key.

I only wish I had a better 1B option but many teams were drafting two at time regardless of need.
