This is still a very young team and there is some talent that could explode this year. Who are you looking forward to seeing that happen to.

I am going to go with Reynolds since he is the one that was not suppose to be part of this team and to me is the underdog of the group.

Which young D-back am I looking forward to growing this year? Are they like Chia pets that I can grow at home now? Neat!

As far as who Im looking forward to watch grow as a player, Im excited to watch all of them! I don't have one specific guy in mind, I'd love to see them all develop and mature and turn into a great team.

lol Hoover, my Upton chia pet is going to hit 30 hrs this year.

That is a lofty expectation for a player who can't even legally drink yet. I do not expect Upton to burst onto the scene until next year.

I voted for Young... because he can progress even further into becoming an all-star.

I'm excited to see all of them develop (except Montero, I'm not thrilled with his ability to call a game).

Reynolds, Drew, and Young will be interesting. Upton I am more than willing to be patient with. He is so young and was called up too soon IMHO. He has a much higher upside than Quentin (who I never liked) so I am just content to watch him grow in RF.

Although I believe that Reynolds has the potential to become a solid power hitter in time, why does the choice have to be just one?

He and Young and Upton could become real stars in this league. Drew could be solid.

And I'm curious to see if what Jackson predicts for himself comes true. Inspired play and solid fielding.

So I can't vote for just one. Hey, the more that make it, the better for the team.

Drew, Because of the way he came on in the playoffs last year after struggling most of the year. I'm looking forward to seeing him carry that over.

I hope they all continue to improve but I'm really hoping Upton sees a lot of playing time and hits quite a few HR this year. Maybe 30+.

It was close between Upton and Young, but I voted for Young. If he can have 30+ homeruns in his first regular season, and only go up from there... I'm glad he's a Diamondback!
