Players you expect to be All Star caliber: Cano, Molina, Carpenter, Wainwright, and Haren
Will any rookies or free agents contribute this year? Only 1 rookie on the roster(Willy Paulino) and he'll get a lot of time out of the bullpen. He's likely a future starter. All the FA's will contribute.

Players you expect to be All Star caliber - Brennan Boesch, Alex Avila, Prince Fielder, Miguel Cabrera
Will any rookies or free agents contribute this year? Bonifacio will be a major upgrade at SS. Jacob Turner is getting the nod as the #3 starter in the rotation this season too. The Tigers will only be able to go as far as that pitching staff will take them.
Season outlook/predictions for your team - Just over .500, hopefully playoffs. Pitching against this CPU is TOUGH.

World Series Champion - Bobby and the Washington Nationals
MVP - Matt Kemp
Cy Young - Stephen Strasburg
Rookie of the Year - Jacob Turner - homer pick...

Rookie of the Year - Stephen Gardner - controllerabuser
Relief Pitcher of the Year - Chris Perez - ryty32
