For now, I go with Howard. He's a monster. Could put up 50 homers (and 200 strikeouts, but does your fantasy league penalize you for that?). He won't hurt you in BA, either. Fielder may be better long term, but until he does something in the Show, he's not the top here.

How about that firstbaseman for Korea? I can't remember his name, but the guy had like 5 homeruns in his first 10 at-bats. He's gonna be in the US in the next couple of years.
