Whether it's fantasy baseball players looking for a leg up on the competition in the new season or fans craving the next big thing on their favorite MLB team, I get asked a lot about sleepers this time of year, so let's identify the biggest breakout candidate for all 30 clubs.
I'm defining a breakout season not just as "beating last year's WAR," because picking young players who are growing into more playing time is a pretty easy hack for that. I'm picking players under 30 years old who I think will beat their projected WAR by at least a half-win, using FanGraphs' Depth Chart projections for both playing quality and playing time.
