Michael Cuddyer's .260-16-58 debut in Colorado seems like a significant step back, though he racked up those numbers in just over half a season. Plus Casey Kotchman, Marco Estrada, Scott Hairston and Clayton Richard.
By signing Josh Hamilton (OF, LAA) in the offseason, the Angels added another ex-MVP to their already potent lineup. Plus Jame Shields, Alex Avila, Luis Mendoza and Lyle Overbay.
Dustin Pedroia's scorching second half has us thinking a return to MVP form could be within reach, as long as he's healthy. Also, Kipnis, Wilhemsen, Kendrick.
Danny Espinosa has twice flirted with a 20/20 season, falling a few stolen bases short in 2011 and missing by three HRs in 2012. Can he get there in 2012? Plus Brandon McCarthy, Marco Scutaro, Ricky Nolaso and Rex Brothers.
While it’s crowded in the Oakland outfield, newcomer Chris Young should see regular playing time. Plus Ubaldo Jimenez, Mark Reynolds, Derek Holland and Jarrod Dyson.
In 2012, Carlos Beltran hit HRs like it was 2007. Was it a repeatable late-career resurgence? Plus Starlin Castro, Matt Harvey, Kurt Suzuki and J.J. Hoover.
R.A. Dickey changes teams as the reigning Cy Young, can Blue Jay fans expect an encore performance? Plus Michael Bourn, Fernando Rodney, Brett Wallace and Daniel Bard.
