Fantasy Baseball draft tonight... Any sleeper players I should look for?

I had a pretty good team last year and went to the semifinal game of a 12 team league, but I realized that depth can put a team over the top... who do you guys like as "sleeper" picks? I tend to like guys that can play multiple postions to fill out my roster. A guy like Mark DeRosa, who can play 1B,2B,3B,OF, is a big asset.

Wandy Rodriguez.

I like DeRosa, not sure how much of a "sleeper" he is. Most certainly will help your team. Maybe a younger guy like Jed Lowrie? Not great stats, but should qualify at SS/3B and will put up decent numbers.

I didn't start getting outfielders until the middle to late rounds so I'm a little weak in terms of star power there, but still solid.

I had the first overall pick in my ten team league. (H. Ramirez)
