I know that spring training is yet to get under way, but with the "big-ticket" FAs mainly done and dusted I thought it might be interesting to get some opinions on who everyone thinks the main contenders are.
Perhaps when people have a chance they'd take a few minutes to look over the rosters and contribute their views on the following?
Who do you think will win the West?
Who do you think will win the Central?
Who do you think will win the East?
Who do you like to win the whole thing?
What are your hopes for your own team this season?

Who do you think will win the West? This should be a good fight. I think the Diamondbacks' offseason spending possibly nudges them just above the Rangers, who in turn are just above the Marlins.
Who do you think will win the Central? I didn't realise how tricky this would be when I asked the questions! Right now I like the Angels to edge out the Indians, with the Orioles not far behind.
Who do you think will win the East? With three teams seemingly rebuilding, I think that that my Rockies have a good chance at overturning the reigning champions.
Who do you like to win the whole thing? If it clicks for any of the 6 teams in contention in the West or Central I think they're in the driving seat. Today, I'd take... the depth of the Angels.
What are your hopes for your own team this season? I'd like to win the division, but having looked through the other teams a bit more closely I'm not sure I have a legit shot at the title.

West - Dbacks Central - Indians East - Dodgers Whole thing - Indians My team - Mets will likely struggle, but if some guys come back healthy who knows. So you're telling me...

West-Dbacks The Rangers do have a ton of star power. I think my Dbacks have a little better depth, though. I'm hopeful that depth is enough to stay ahead of the Rangers. This should be a close race. I'm not gonna bet against myself, so I like the DBACKS.
Central-Indians The Angels probably have the best overall depth in the league. I like what the Orioles have done and if they can get bounce back seasons from a few guys they should be in the thick of things. Having said that, my pick is the INDIANS. They have top 5 players at every infield position, except maybe SS. Plus they have a couple 20/20 Types in the OF. In addition to all that, the quality pitching depth they have is quite ridiculous. Gotta go INDIANS.
East-Rox I do like the Dodgers but they look to still have a couple holes to fill. I feel like the Rockies have a very complete team. I pick the ROX
Champs-Indians I think there's 6-7 teams that look fairly strong. Attrition will likely play a big part in which teams are in contention. Having said that, my pick is the INDIANS.
My Team- Division title/Championship This will be my first full season in a roto dynasty format. I'm probably overly optimistic but I'm really hoping to make a run at a championship. I've dealt a ton of young upside players for guys that I believe will help me in my quest for a championship. I still have some work to do but I think with a couple additions and a little luck, the Dbacks will be extremely competitive.
