Subject to change. Here's an explanation of FV.
Notes:
- Hanley Ramirez is far and away the top player in fantasy baseball this year. If you have the first pick, you have to take him.
- Notice the considerable drop-off from Rollins to Alexei Ramirez. That's why you should consider taking Rollins ahead of guys like Ryan Howard, Josh Hamilton, and Mark Teixeira.
- I'm assuming Andrus and Wood have full-time gigs. For Andrus, I don't think that's a stretch. Minus a Figgins or Aybar trade, Wood probably won't play full-time, so take that projection with a grain of salt.
- Drew and Tulowitzki are very close in value, in my opinion. I lean slightly toward Drew because I think he has a little more power, but I could definitely see the argument for Tulowitzki.
- If you need runs, there's nothing wrong with drafting Jeter or Young since they'll both be hitting second in stacked lineups.
- This position is not deep. If you play in a league that uses a shortstop plus a middle infielder, I would suggest overpaying for a shortstop. If you have a chance to get one of the big three, you have to take it.

alexei ramirez looks too high to me. he's unproven. also i think tulowitski will have a better season than drew.
Ramirez looks high to me too. After hearing that he'll most likely hit seventh in the lineup, I think it would be appropriate to adjust his counting stats down a little. If you assume 77 runs and 77 RBI (which I think seems about right), that would make him almost exactly even with Tulowitzki. That seems a little better.
As for Drew vs. Tulo, I could take either side of that debate. I slightly favor Drew because I think he has a little more power and may bat third sometimes. But Tulo plays in Colorado which still favors hitters - just not as much as it used to. It may come down to which (if either) of them decides to start running a little more.
