March 14, 201610 yr Park with 27 HR, ~.800 OPS - wins Rookie of the Year in ALSano with 38 HR, ~ .875 OPS - top 5 in MVP voting Perkins sub 2.50 ERA, 45 saves, no 2nd half drop off this yearMilone leads staff with 14 wins
March 14, 201610 yr I'm looking for Byron Buxton to lead the AL in steals at about 50. Oswaldo Arcia is going to hit 20 HRs, although I'm not sure where he's going to find playing time. Plouffe: 30 HRs and 100 RBIs.
