Francoeur and Cabrera are not likely to explode like they did this year, but if they stay in shape and "want" to play, they can. Hosmer, Moustakas, Giavotella, and Perez will continue to grow. Butler and Gordon are going to beasts. This lineup will just continually feed off of eachother. That's a good thing to have. Seitzer has done a great job with this lineup. The SP CANNOT be any worse, right? Hochevar's 2nd half was very good. Paulino was very good with the Royals. Does Chen come back? Do they go after a big FA, or make a big trade? Who is going to be the pitching coach? And what is the teams "pitching philosophy" going to be? This lineup is going to be downright awesome next year.

But in reality, there are too many ifs to be a contending team, so I agree with your 'realistically positive' attitude. Does anybody talk about Alex Gordon's 20/20 season? I have heard about Francoeur's, but how many outfielders have had 20 assists and 20 home runs in a season?
