2013 ROY candidates?

Anyone want to take a guess at who will be the Rookies of the Year this year? My early picks are:

AL: Aaron Hicks (homer pick as I'm a Twins fan)
NL: Zack Wheeler

Who do you think we'll all be expecting a big sophomore season from at this point next year?

Will Anthony Rendon be playing 3B for the Nats this year? I figured with Zimmerman there already that Rendon potentially have to move across the diamond?

He will start the year ala Harper in AA. If he hits well, he will get a May callup and probably play 2b.

But Aaron Hicks hit a trio of home runs the other day. One of the homers was off of Cliff Lee. He is having an excellent spring!
