Breakout Candidate: Tomas Mateo

Tomas Mateo needs to have corrective eye surgery to address that eye.  I suspect his struggles versus righties is all caused by some visual problem caused by that lazy eye.

His minor league numbers are great.  So far his major league numbers are good and considering his age further improvement is likely. 

The big question is whether he can play full time and maintain those numbers over a season facing the tough right handers in the league.

Breakout Candidate: David Bonilla

David Bonilla was Tampa's candidate for breakout performer.  So far I am am struggling to see why.

23 games into the AAA season and he has played in 3 games and only gotten 13 at bats.  He looks like a star in the makings but with no opportunities it may never happen.  Get the man some AB and get him to the show!
