Rookies to watch.
Miguel Olivo, C, White Sox
Already blessed a powerful throwing arm and speed that belies his position, Olivo just needs some batting experience. He should develop into a decent gap hitter.
Jose Leon, IF, Orioles
He had a sizzling spring, and the team loves his hitting and his ability to play first and third base.
Omar Infante, SS, Tigers
Infante's speed, range and on-base potential are exciting. He didn't hit well this spring, so he must prove he can handle a demanding position on a dally basis.
Michael Cuddyer, OF Twins
