Hmm. Both basically have identical numbers and contributing well for their teams. And they're heating up in the month of June. I'm leaning towards J. Upton, only because Cargo was moved to the lead off spot and he won't get many rbi chances.

I'll take Cargo out of those 2. LF, CF, RF eligibility not to mention the fact he was the highest ranked fantasy player in most leagues last year gives you a great track record to point to. I like Upton to give you a lil more power and Cargo to give you some more speed and a higher avg.

There really isn't a right or wrong choice here. Upton's potential ceiling is higher so if he happened to reach it in the 2nd half of the season it could make the difference. Personally I'd probably take the J-Up gamble as I agree with a prior response in that Car-Go takes a slight value hit leading off.
