I think Cashner is going to have his breakout year. Should have > 9 k/9, but the only thing that will hurt him is a) getting hurt and b) innings limit

Other possible breakout years:
Minor
Felix Doubront
Possibly Chacin (don't like his home park and consider him a bust for now)

Who else?

Jeff Samardzija is going to be legit.

Cahill
Erasmo Ramirez

Estrada was one but he's getting hype everywhere so he isn't much of a sleeper anymore.

Samardzija is hard to consider a sleeper when he is going to be the Cubs opening day starter. He was a sleeper last year.

He is only going to be the Cubs opening day starter by default because Garza is hurt. Just because you are starting on opening day doesn't mean you can't be a sleeper. I don't really think he is at the top of everyone's list of big time starting pitchers in the NL.

Fair enough. I will be curious to see if the Mets bring up Zach Wheeler as just a September call up or give him a shot before that. Kid could be a stud

Wow! I am impressed someone said this. I am in a very competitive 12-man league and was looking at taking a shot at this guy if the opportunity presented. His K/9 is VERY solid and could be an awesome pitcher at great value (I play auction leagues only, I hope to nab him at $1).

I'll be honest, I am an AL fan, but pretty saavy when it comes to fantasy...I have not heard too much from this guy...what do you think he would go for in a 12-team league?

Like I said, it's been a while since I saw his name pop up...I am so focused on my tiers, I was looking at him as a No. 6. I'll just have to keep researching.
