- I value players with good fielding attributes that might be able to play multiple spots.
- I try to draft shortstops and center fielders over corner positions, again looking for utility players.

Personality traits in the late rounds is definitely something I use as well. When all other things are equal or I'm splitting hairs, these traits at least answer the question of "who would I rather have on the team".
