Los Angeles Dodgers - There just too much talent and organizational depth for the rest of the league to keep up, yet somehow I see the Dodgers days here being numbered. Andrew Friedman and company seem hell-bent on shipping off all their talent.
Bold prediction: Yasiel Puig hits 30 and the media still finds something to complain about with him.
Breakout player: Rob Segedin OF
Arizona Diamondbacks - I'm doing something I never thought I'd do - I'm buying and Diamondbacks. I like their pitching. I like their offensive balance. I think they're ready to compete for, even make the postseason.
Bold prediction: Paul Goldschmidt is a 30/30 player.
Breakout player: Robbie Ray SP/Brandon Drury 2B
Colorado Rockies - Believe it or not folks, the Rockies have the pitching to balance their high powered offense. From my perspective, the only thing that will hold the Rockies back is growing pains with their young arms. I had a hard time putting them third.
Bold prediction: Even in Coors Field, the Rockies will have the division's best home ERA.
Breakout player: Anthony Senzatela SP
San Francisco Giants - The division is catching up to the Dodgers and Giants. San Francisco is never one to be doubted but I'm going against the grain and I'm doubting the Giants. I'm not overly impressed with the pitching, offense is good, not great. Bullpen was awful in the second half last year. Just my opinion, the Giants have a lot to prove.
Bold prediction: The Giants finish below .500.
Breakout player: Ty Blach SP
San Diego Padres - The Padres went all in and then sold the ranch to rebuild. I think this rebuild will take a while and that will make for a long summer on the coast. I don't like the Friars much this year.
Bold prediction: The Padres will have the worst record since the 2005 Royals.
Breakout player: Manny Margot OF
