Doubront and Aceves in the BoSox Rotation?


It looks like consensus is that Bard won't pan out as a starter after all. I'm not all that surprised, but I am surprised (and disappointed) that the Sox did not plan for this by acquiring better emergency starters over the offseason.

Still, I'm wondering if Aceves or Doubront will have any fantasy value. Doubront has more upside as he's only 24 and John Sickels said he could be a #4 or #5 for most teams, but Aceves has a pretty good track record of success, although mostly as a reliever. Are either of these guys fantasy relevant in very deep AL-only leagues?
