C - JT Realmuto reaches 150 games and goes for 80/20/80

1B - Pujols takes advantage of the DH to get over his nagging foot injury and goes for 90/40/110 while bringing his AVG back over .280.

2B - Jose Altuve joins Ichiro as the second player in the modern era to eclipse 240 hits in a season.

3B - Kyle Seager enjoys at least one more season as the 'better' Seager in the league.
Yangervis Solarte finally has a position to call home and totals up 80/20/80.

SS - Starlin Castro enjoys a rejuvenating season (at age 25 ) in New York, scores 100+ while hitting over .300.

OF - George Springer stays healthy. /bold prediction
Matt Kemp enjoys his best season in a while, going for 30/20.
Odubel Herrera has a breakout All-Star season.

I will contribute after my draft on here on Sunday, but I had that Hicks 20/20 prediction also and keep quiet on Travis Jankowski.
