In 2014, the Cleveland Indians saw a number of breakout performances en route to a decent but disappointing finish to the season.
Players like Michael Brantley, Corey Kluber, Cody Allen and Lonnie Chisenhall all took steps forward and helped lead the Indians to their 85-77 record. Here in 2015, the team is looking like a division-title contender, and it'll need those same players to keep up their performance while also relying on a new crop of breakout players in order to fulfill its goals for the year.
Fortunately, there are several players in the Tribe's spring training camp who could take big steps forward this year.
In this piece, we'll look at three such players and analyze why you should care about them. Hint: They are candidates to "break out" in 2015.
Along the way, we'll visit in on a would-be rookie, a familiar face and a guy I just can't quit on. Let's get started.
