Aviles is worthless...so even though I like Beachy better than anybody listed I'd go with Kendrick..
Aviles is pretty valuable cause of the 3 position stuff, and my league is really deep. Im extremely deep at SP, so I have room to move 1, I tried to move Minor, but the dude wouldnt budge. I ended up going with Beachy for Kendrick but I got a 6th that can become a 3 if Beachy finishes top 15 in ESPN PR for SP's.
still have Verlander, Strasburg, Luebke, Anibal, Minor, Wainwright, Harrison and Parker, so losing Beachy isnt a big hit
Saw the end of the Cincy game on Gameday. It looked like Pagan got a second chance from the ump after looking at strike three.. Any one else notice that? Marshall a bit unlucky there.

Humber is going to get rocked tonight, I'd stay away. I don't envision too many scenarios where he ends up with less than 4 ER, and he won't get many K's either..
I'm pretty set on starting him in my deep league with a high innings limit, but benching him in my slightly shallower, lower innings cap league. That way I still get to cheer him on somewhere.

Reimold or De Aza? WHIR
Too late to help you but FWIW I am in the same situation and went with Reimold. Of course had I known he was playing earlier I'd have put him in my util over Cozart (who gave me a nice 0-5 line) and kept De Aza in his usual OF spot and started both. Oh well.

I agree on Aviles. In one league I had hoped to nab Aviles for a buck, but ended up ponying up 8 dollars for him and so far, I'm very satisfied with the investment. MI isn't incredibly deep this year, and a guy who is leading off for a good lineup with a bit of speed and pop is always a commodity. Of course, when Ellsbury comes back, he might move down the order, but I'd hardly call him worthless in any case.

Humber is having a real rough time of it. This Red Sox lineup is on fire right now.
