Fantasy Baseball Keeper Question

I MUST keep 7 keepers this year and up to 2 rookie keepers.  In our league the keepers are only on your team for this season so technically they are not "real keepers".  

Anyway, I have narrowed my choices to the following: C. Utley,  J.Francouer, S. Podesdnik, J.Gathright, C.Ganderson, S.Kazmir, D Harden, R. Dempster, and B. McCarthy.

(I am keeping Bobby Jenks as my rookie keeper)

Which 2 from the above list should NOT be kept this year?

Gathright

You already have Podsednik, and Gathright isn't even guaranteed a starting job. People say that he could develop into a Pierre-type hitter, but his future is just too murky for this season.

When do you have to decide?
Pitchers have a way of getting hurt in ST, and Pods did get nicked up last year. But otherwise, it's an easy call on Gathright, and then a head scratcher. I'm not completely sold on Ganderson.
