Locked On Fantasy Baseball - Daily MLB Fantasy Podcast

The Atlanta Braves are coming off a 97-win season and have a lineup with few holes that is led by stars Ronald Acuna Jr. and Freddie Freeman.

Their pitching staff might have a few more question marks. If those questions get answered positively, then the Braves should be contenders.

The New York Mets won 86 games last season, their third winning season in the past five...and third winning season in the past 11.

This team looks competitive enough, although they would have been more formidable with Noah Syndergaard in the starting rotation. Nevertheless, Jacob deGrom is a legit ace and first baseman Pete Alonso is coming off a rookie season in which he mashed 53 home runs.

The Tampa Bay Rays won 96 games in 2019, one less than the franchise record. It was the sixth time since 2010 that the team had won at least 90 games as they continue to punch above their weight class in the American League East.

They are taking some chances this year, with quite a few unproven bats in the lineup but their pitching rotation has a chance to be formidable and, if rising star Austin Meadows can get some offensive support, the Rays could contend again.

The Philadelphia Phillies haven't had a winning season since 2011 but the roster does look to be improved enough that they should be in the hunt for a playoff spot.

Star outfielder Bryce Harper, ace pitcher Aaron Nola, and catcher J.T. Realmuto are some of the reasons to be encouraged about Philadelphia's chances but they will need contributions from the supporting cast to get there.

The Oakland Athletics have had back-to-back 97-win seasons and they should be competitive again. At the same time, there are enough questions in the lineup and rotation to believe that this season might be more difficult in the competitive AL West.

Nevertheless, the likes of Matt Olson, Matt Chapman, Ramon Laureano, and Marcus Semien are valuable contributors that could make a difference for your fantasy team.

The St. Louis Cardinals have enjoyed a dozen straight winning seasons but this season's roster does bring some question marks which makes it no guarantee that they are on the right side of .500 again.

Sure, they have the likes of ace starter Jack Flaherty, power-hitting first baseman Paul Goldschmidt and veteran catcher Yadier Molina, but there are a lot of unproven options in the lineup and that brings some risk into the equation, maybe more than in recent seasons.

A team coming off a 67-win season, the Toronto Blue Jays have reason for optimism and it's built on a lineup full of young talent.

That lineup showed potential last season but could be ready to take flight if Bo Bichette, Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Cavan Biggio and Lourdes Gurriel Jr. continue their ascent.

The question will be pitching, and the Blue Jays are turning to four 30-plus starters in their rotation and might be able to get top prospect Nate Pearson into the mix.

The Milwaukee Brewers have had three straight winning seasons and have some star talent in the lineup but question marks in the pitching staff could present some challenges in 2020.

The good news is that left fielder Christian Yelich, second baseman Keston Hiura, and ace starter Brandon Woodruff are all capable of being impact players for fantasy owners.

Typically a contender, the Boston Red Sox just went through a brutal offseason and could struggle to stay competitive in 2020.

They still have big bats like J.D. Martinez, Rafael Devers, and Xander Bogaerts, but Boston's pitching staff is depleted and should leave them out of contention this season.
