Good Howard/Teixeira debate between Scott Pianowski and Brad Evans on Yahoo!. For what it's worth, I'd probably take Teixeira because I'm a batting average nut, and also because I think his floor is higher when average is taken into account.

Of course, Howard could hit 60 HR. But Teixeira, who's a switch hitter, could also benefit from Yankee Stadium's short porch (apparently the dimensions of the new park are the same as the old). I'd still take Soriano ahead of both. Hopefully, I won't be faced with that choice though since Soriano will last another 5-10 picks probably.
