i like these too. But I think pitchers will have more decisions because hitting is better this year and bullpen is pretty good. i think matsui decision is right on.

Hopefully Matsui has a better average then that. Hopefully he came into his own last year. I know that his home/road splits were rough, but he is a quality hitter.

berkman will hit at least .290. he had an off year last year and still managed .278 34 hr and 102 rbi. he hit 45 hr and 136 rbi two years ago and he isn't declining yet. berkman .295, 95 runs, 35 hr, 115 rbi with an ops around .950 if he stays healthy.

matsui is right on, wigginton is a guarantee to give 20 hr power. bourne will hit .275 with 90 runs, 2 hr(no power), 40 rbi, and 35 sb if healthy
