I have the Walnut Creek team and am looking at Sammy Taylor and Brandon Kelley. Thanks for your help.

In your specific case, under NO circumstance should Kelley come up. He's your prized prospect and not close. Use Spring Training for him: no pinch hitter, no baserunner, no defensive replacement (under spring training "management" settings). I wouldn't mess with Taylor, either. While he won't be great, he could still be a decent defensive 2B for you if you stay in LL6&5.
