Guess I won't be getting Dickey on any of my teams next year. Wow top 5? really? lol.

Miguel Cabrera, Ryan Braun, Matt Kemp, Mike Trout, Robinson Cano, Prince Fielder, Albert Pujols, Carlos Gonzalez, Andrew McCutchen, Joey Votto, Adrian Gonzalez, Josh Hamilton, Justin Verlander, Edwin Encarnacion, Felix Hernandez, Mike Stanton, Adrian Beltre, Evan Langoria, Hanley Ramirez, Stephen Strusburg, Buster Posey, Clayton Kershaw, Adam Jones, Jay Bruce, Jose Reyes
Notable Exceptions;
Jose Bautista- wrist injuries always bother me with power hitters. I could pick him up but id rather someone take him ahead of me. Tulo- I never go after players in the first couple of rounds coming off of injuries however if he shows good signs in spring training and the rest of the season i could put him behind justin verlander on this list.
Players that will turn heads;
Adam Jones and Jay Bruce-Call it what you want but I love both of these guys going into next season and would rather have either of them oversome like David Price, Granderson, Texaria, Pedroia, or Ellsbury
I made a mistake on my list, actually after looking over things a little closer i realized i did undervalue Kershaw, i was also rushing when i made my picks but i do believe in them, my bad mistakes do happen. Move Kershaw infront of Stantan right behind King Felix.

Cain is the KING of struggling to get wins. 7 healthy, full seasons and he's never topped 14 wins, despite being an ace for the previous 4 seasons. As usual I'll probably avoid the top 10 starting pitchers and rely on finding hidden gems.
