    My first choice would be A Pagan as he is usually one of those OF's that is readily replaceable on the waiver wire thoughout the season, and it snot like he offers much more then a decent average and some moderate speed stats - if he stays healthy of course. But odds are he might get 20+ steals this season which is his only bonus, otherwise he hits around .280 with single digit HRs and totals for RBI and R in the 70's maybe? Miller likely brings you 15 SBs and 15 HRs for sure, and similar numbers elsewhere which puts his value at 2B much higher then that of Pagan.

    I would also put Davis in that same category as Pagan (easily replaceable), so go with whatever your gut tells you on the two is what I would say - pick on you like and drop the other for Miller.

    Gomez and Holliday are must keeps, and Kemp has such a high ceiling if his health stays that he cannot be dropped yet. Davis and Pagan .

    Does your league count holds? If not, I'd drop Rex Brothers. The rest of your relief staff is pretty solid and your starters are good enough that you don't need Brothers to help bring down a high WHIP and ERA. If holds are a category, I'd drop Davis.

    As far as Gattis, you have a very solid C with the chance at a breakout season and very impressive final numbers. The only time to carry two catchers is in a two catcher league. If Perez gets hurt, which is unlikely, Gattis or his equivalent will be available on the wire should that need arise.

    I'd probably drop Pagan. I am also assuming Gattis has dual position eligibility at C/Of at least for this season
