    Altuve may not be the starting 2B by September 2015. Torreyes may be able to provide almost the same offense, but isn't a defensive liability. Kemp and Fontana are also options if Torreyes can't hit MLB pitching. I still think Altuve will probably be the starting 2B, but he is far from a lock.

    I wouldn't give up on Carter just yet I think the HR's will come in bunches and I think he will hit for a better average than last year.

    I'd like

    Fowler
    Altuve
    Springer
    Castro
    Singleton
    Carter
    Dominguez
    Hoes
    Villar
