Who is this years sleeper team?

Who could be the giants of last year? 2 teams that come to my mind is the A's and brewers! Think they could make big runs in very weak divisions!

I don't know how much of a sleeper they are, but since most everyone has ceded the NL east to the Phillies, I think the Braves have a good chance to win that division.

In the AL, I'm going to say the Jays only because I think the Rays are going to regress a little bit, and I can see the Yankees potentially sliding back hard if they have some bad luck with injuries.

I agree with the Brewers. Pitching staff looks like they can win that division.

I cant think of the brewers other pitchers besides grienke and gallardo. I also think the Padres can make some noise again just dont know if they have the bats to stay with the giants!

A's have good pitching but I'm not a believer in that offense. Texas should win the division again
