Are the BlueJays the AL East favourites? Who's poised for a breakout season? Who will impress or disappoint? All that and more in our in-depth MLB roundtable predictions. 👇

I feel like if I keep saying the Los Angeles Angels eventually it’s going to be right, so what the hell.

Look, I get they’re a low-percentile possibility but hang with me here. If Mike Trout does his thing, Shohei Ohtani can be a reasonable two-way contributor, Anthony Rendon returns healthy, Jo Adell takes the next step, Jared Walsh remains productive and Noah Syndergaard can throw 150 innings, they’re in the mix for a wild-card. This is definitely my subjective brain in action because it’s terrible seeing generational talents like Trout and Ohtani withering on a vine year after year.

Patrick Wisdom could hit 40 homers with a full season’s playing time; Jonathan Villar is an above-average player whether you like it or not; toolsy outfielder Brennan Davis, the 2021 Futures Game MVP, could debut mid-season. A veteran rotation of low-strikeout, soft-contact generators — Kyle Hendricks, Marcus Stroman, Drew Smyly, Wade Miley — won’t be featured often on Pitching Ninja but will chew through a ton of innings with below league-average ERAs.
