VMart will play a lot at 1B. Garko will be the odd man out. I think Kelly gets 400 abs.

Didn't notice you said 7x7 with H & OPS as added stats the first time around. Now that I see that, I definitely like Kurt Suzuki a lot more than Jesus Flores with those as stats.
10 team league, playing only one catcher? At this point you don't need to even choose one. In the long run, there's not a whole lot of difference among the guys you've listed. Stream them & go with the hot hand.
Depending on what the 6th and 7th pitching categories are, I'd be more concerned with your staff. It's hugely imbalanced, definitely short on saves, and, if one of the categories is K/9, you're carrying a couple of anchors (and I don't mean that in a good way). If guys like Wang and Carmona have two-start weeks, you're effectively blowing off that category. Couple that with the almost guaranteed loss in 'Saves' and you've got problems. In a 10-team mixed league, everyone has a rock-solid or near rock-solid lineup; it's unlikely you'll be able to offset the losses in pitching cats with hitting cats.
