Marco Estrada SP for Brew Crew could get some pub this year. 3.64 ERA in 23 starts last season

Forgot about him....
What about the O's... They have a ton of former high round picks as starters who are hitting peak year. Hammel is one who wasn't bad last year along with Gonzales

Dexter Fowler is another good one going into his age 27 season. Last year he improved across the board as his avg, obp, and slugging all improved.

I also like Lucroy and Pestano

Pestano will end up the CLE closer at some point this year

Juan Francisco is a bit intriguing... could be a Jose Baptista type if he figures it out.

Travis Snider had some hype with him when drafted and I believe did pretty good in the minors but could never get in sync when he reached the majors. Injuries definitely derailed his progress.

Go look at his 2012 home away splits, very mediocre away from coors

Not too worried about that since half his games are still in Coors and he did show improvement last year. Pretty much all Colorado players have extreme home/road splits. He improves even more he could be an all star

His away splits are pretty much always the same, his Home splits is what varies widely(year to year). He had a .984 OPS in coors last year, I doubt he duplicates that this year, I actually think he will regress in 2013.

Alexi Ogando - if the Rangers are seriously moving him back into the rotation.

Craig Gentry - 40 SB's if given the reigns in CF

Haven't even began FBB scouting yet. Can't wait.

Cespedes will be a top 30 guy this season.

Fowler was only good in 1st half last season. Hit 11 of his 13 bombs.

If this were the 90s, he could roid up, add 30lbs, and probably hit 40 in Coors.
