I'd rather go with internal options at this point to give the kids some experience.

I would much rather use veterans for bench players and let the younger players develop by playing every day somewhere.

That is called Minor League.

I'm fine with them developing in the majors as well, but they should play every day. If Buxton gets hurt then they can bring up Austin Martin to play every day in the majors. I just don't want to waste his service time in a bench role.

The point of the majors is to win games, not be a little league for rookies not ready for prime time.

Where did I say they should play rookies who aren't ready yet? Julien, Wallner and even Royce Lewis are still developing but they're also the best options available. I think it's a bad idea to use rookies for a bench role when they might only play once a week. That doesn't help the player or the team.
