best available would be vmart, wells and wilson i think. vmart should have been drafted quite awhile ago and i'd be tempted to snatch him up there and use either him or doumit as trade bait. otherwise i'd go with wells if you start more than 3 OF, and wilson if you don't.

Victor Martinez is the best value Grab him!

If your OF was not full I like V. Wells.

I would be comfortable with either V. Mart or Wells. But I would take V. Mart.

You gotta take VMart here even if you only use him as trade bait down the road. I think he will be better than what you have a catcher in Doumit anyway. Pick up VMart and reap the rewards of his comeback year.

please help

Tough call for you only because Martinez is there, surprising yes, he should have been selected by now. Wells is definitely the selection to make here. Wells not Martinez represents the best value for YOUR TEAM at this point, IMO. But I could also understand selecting Martinez because he is also very good value at this point.

are you humping a honda logo?

vmart is the best value here. not sure why you picked doumit when victor was still out there. you can play him at util and shop him when he gets off to a good start

in the 12th round of a 12 team league that keeps 10 players I would find it difficult to pass up Upton.
