My list would be the same as Hooties. Look for Motte to come out of nowhere and steal the closing job in STL.

I'll add a few of my own.

Jason Schmidt has looked like Jason **** (use you imagination) so far this spring, he's finished. Look towards James McDonald to get that #5 rotation spot, he's got one hell of an arm.

I like Josh Outman, who should also get the #5 spot and looked unbelievable in his first outing this spring. He's got some crazy delivery, I'm concerned he'll be the next Dontrelle Willis once people figure him out.

Matt Joyce, will develop as a nice power hitter, but K's a lot. Penciled in to start at left field. Rays wanna give him a shot.

Jays rotation is a mess. Marcum and Mcgowan are out for the season, AJ's a Yankee. Casey Janssen is hurt. The Jays will have no choice but to give Ricky Romero a slot.
