Not sure who to put first, I have an interest in both guys.

Let me know what you think.

Both are worthy pickups right now; your priorities should be dictated by your needs.

Post your current roster please.

You seem in good shape at catcher, so I think I would put Motte out front. Who to drop is up to you; probably depends on how much of a risk there is that Ziegler will steal Devine's job while he's away.

I agree with Koopa - Motte is hte way to go here, your bats are pretty nice as is. i wouldn't waste a first round waiver on motte though -- those things can be very valuable down the line ;-D
