Scooter Gennett's hot spring has him in the mix for leadoff duties against right-handers, and perhaps even something close to a full-time role early on.
Apr 1 2016 11:05pm
Jake Arrieta probably won't be able to duplicate his dominating second half performance from 2015, but he's clearly established himself as a rotation anchor. Plus, Bartolo Colon, Hunter Pence, Wilson Ramos, and Adeiny Hechavarria.

Hector Rondon has stumbled out of the gate this spring. There are a couple other talented relievers in the CHC pen who could handle things should his struggles continue. Plus more from the NL Central.
Mar 25 2016 11:05pm
As is always the case, Adrian Gonzalez put together another stellar performance in 2015, and remains a strong foundation to build a team around. Plus, Ryan Howard, Cesar Hernandez, Adam Conley, and Hunter Strickland.
Mar 24 2016 11:03pm
The Pirates have a couple question marks at the back of the rotation. If needed, can Juan Nicasio bridge the gap? Plus, Smith and Jeffress to split closing duties in Milwaukee, and more from around the division.

Mar 12 2016 12:05am
Joey Votto rebounded in a big way in 2015, especially in the second half (.530 OBP—seriously). Is he safe to invest an early round pick on in 2016? Plus, Dexter Fowler, Alexei Ramirez, Andrew Cashner, and Chase Anderson.
