Upton and Sandoval.
Both will be All-Stars this year.
The rest will have good seasons, but these two will have the best (barring injury)

Although I think Upton is going to have a great year, and solidify himself as a true star, Hanson gets my nod for #1. I think this is the year of the Hanson. He has some of the best stuff I have seen out of any pitcher in the last 20 years with very few exceptions. I think last year was for confidence, comfort and control. This year will be a domination! Be prepared for this young man to smoke out 19-21 wins and 250+ K's. And expect a sub 2.80 era to boot. He is going to be the clear Ace of the team by all star break and their only hope to reclaim postseason glory in the near future.
For thoes buying or holding Hanson, this is going to be a very profitable year indeed!
As for Pablo Sandoval, I believe he will have a similar year to last. However, the impact Upton and Hanson will have imo will outshine that.

I like Hanson, and hope he doesnt have a soph slump, as exampled by previous pitchers of the decade.
He reminds me alot of a Brandon Webb that's healthy
At the time I voted, Justin Upton was leading, followed by Pablo. I feel Tommy Hanson is the only choice here. I think Hanson will be a Cy Young canidate, and will lead the Braves to AT LEAST a Wild Card berth. I don't think Upton or Sandoval have a shot at MVP, or taking their teams to the playoffs. Hanson over Upton imo.

My 3rd choice was Cutch, followed by Hanson.
Hanson isnt slated to be the ace of the staff this season, and ive heard he may be the #3 to start the season.
I believe he will have a good season, he just wont contribute the way that Upton/Sandoval or Cutch do to their squads.
Each of those 3 guys is the star of their team (hitting wise), and without them, their teams would not be where they are at.

That's the point.
Without them, they are basically nothing
Their seasons impact the most

??? If that is the point, I am still missing it? The Pirates are last place with or without Cutch! That is my point. He is not that valuable. Same goes for Upton and Pablo. Hanson on the other hand makes the Braves contenders. Without him, they are near the bottom of the division.
