Will any of these players be an upgrade from Hunter Pence?

None of them is an upgrade from Hunter. This is only his 3rd year in the majors and his BA is .293 over that time. This guy has major talent. Cameron is a multi-talented player but he just can't hit for average. A lifetime BA of .253 for a guy who can hit 20+ HR's and can steal 20+ bases is a shame. But it just isn't there. Adam Lind have extreme possibilities, but he is more of a gamble than Pence. Span, Young, Guillen, and Byrnes just aren't as talented. Guillen is a close second to Pence but Hunter will p up all of guillen's stats. Lowell is a great 3B. He plays with heart and is one of my favorite players in the game. But in fantasy, you have to put those feelings aside. It's just about numbers. Same with Encarnacion. They just don't put up the numbers that Hunter will. Keep him.
