Smith. I think he'll win over people this year if given the chance. I think he has learned his lesson. I also think the younger coaching staff will actually enhance Dom.
Drew Smith. I think he plays a bigger role than you would think by the end of the summer.
My dark horses are Kyle Regnault, Marcos Molina in the pen and David Thompson to make a debut at some point.
On another message board, somebody said they liked Thompson more after seeing him in the AFL. I think Thompson has a shot at being a fun player and possibly our 2019 3rd baseman.
Dom, unlike some of the others, had a bad babip and might have more upside than he showed batting average wise. He's also got some pop.
I realize its in the direction of silly to believe in rookies like Guillorme, Thompson, Nimmo & Dom to turn this team around, but there's a chance.

Guillorme:
He will be a fun one to keep a track of... He will most definetly start 2018 in AAA but is a likely call up in case a major injury to an INF...
I remember when Ordinez initially came to Queens and I remember how fun it was to watch him dive after a ball that no one could get only to make a crazy high throw... His fielding comp is pretty similar and at a min will improve our pitchers ERA with solid INF defense...
If he catches a bat flip while he’s in the Majors even better
If he doesn't work out he can become the new BAT BOY!
