Mookie Betts has been a major bright spot in an otherwise dismal year in Boston. How do the skills measure up in his first full season? Plus Jesse Chavez, Eduardo Escobar, Jered Weaver, and Travis Shaw.
Looking ahead to 2016, we shine the spotlight on the pitching staffs of the NL East. For instance, what will the Nationals do with free-agents-to-be Jordan Zimmermann and Doug Fister?
Gazing forward, 2016 could be a year in which youth is served in many AL East rotations. And while closer duties are settled in most places, some new (and old) names could move into key setup roles.
Rick Porcello is a risk/reward play in his home start vs. the Jays on this Labor Day. Plus more on the starts of Greinke, Scherzer, Y. Ventura and I. Kennedy.
Carlos Carrasco could return to the CLE rotation Tuesday. Plus updates on Jose Iglesias, Hanley Ramirez, Johnny Giavotella, Wil Myers, Domonic Brown and Yasiel Puig.
