It certainly came down to him vs. Santana, but in the second half of this season Johan has started looking JUST above average and he has thrown a few innings these past 4 seasons with no hiccups and I have been a little snakebit with the p's lately so I went with the age is all.
There aren't many 23 year olds with Fielder's stats right now and he seems to be getting better which is scary. His numbers across the board are about the same if not better than Ryan Howard, who incedently is 4 and 1/2 years older and went 2 picks earlier (and will have more of a ball park effect on his numbers as well most likely).
But y'all are right, I probably just blew this league with that pick.
