Top 20 Sleepers of 2006      
3/20/06, 8:20pm
     I agree with all of these sleeper picks, with the exception of Greg Maddux.  He's turning 40 next month and I don't see him putting up one of his usual Cy Young years, but I expect an improvement from last year.  One pitcher that should've been included is Zach Duke, who had quite an impressive showing for the lackluster Pirates down the stretch in '05.  With the improved lineup and management in Pittsburgh, Duke should fluorish this year.  Matt Holliday, Josh Willingham, and a couple of others on the list have been mentioned on the Baseball Geeks Podcast at various points as being possible sleepers.
