    Thanks for putting this together

    I think the real wildcards on the roster are Callaspo and Grenkie. Both could led the team in categories, or make no impact whatsoever.

    I was surprised by the Callaspo love

    I really like this kid too, but he has little major league track record and even if he'll eventually become good, I don't know if he's going to show that quite yet. And he won't likely get a full season of regular playing time. Apparently he isn't even the #2 pinch runner.

    I probably disagree with you.
