Mookie Betts could break out this year
Charles Krupa/APBefore I get into this, here's what I had to say about one Mookie Betts in an article for Razzball a few days ago:

Who’s Better, Mookie Betts Or Xander Bogaerts?
In 2014, Xander Bogaerts was the talk of the town, and rightly so. The then 21-year-old Aruban prospect was coming off an impressive showing in the World Series and was the most highly touted player to come through the system in a very long time.
