shoppach for sure. he has the most upside of the bunch and makes sense since he'll have a ton of playing time if vmart goes down.

Is Jesus Flores around? I'll take a guy that finished 11th amount catcher's in RBI's despite only playing in 90 games.

I like Laird, and Hundley (careful he's got power but his a BA killer and should be avoided in leagues that penalize strikeouts) as fall back options. Recently Pudge is back on my Radar, he believes he is a #1 catcher (half the battle) and blames his production loss on depression over his divorce and personal life. Looks like the Marlins are gonna pick him up, so keep an eye on him. He's made it pretty clear he will not sign as a back up. On your list I'd grab Hernandez, but the others should fall a bit more allowing you to focus on other positions. I like the idea of grabbing Shoppach, as he is the real life back up for your fantasy catcher.

Shoppach. You will likely only play your #2 C if your #1 goes down so a handcuff pick would be in order here.

I agree, this makes a lot of sense here.
