The offseason is winding down as the 2016 MLB campaign is set to open up on April 3.

There have been plenty of changes throughout the league as new faces have found new homes.

We've already made our predictions for the NL East, now we'll look at the American League East division in the order of which the clubs finished in 2015.

Here is our team-by-team look at the AL East heading into 2016. To view this in slideshow form, CLICK START at the top right of this page.

Toronto Blue Jays (93-69 in 2015)

The Blue Jays have a lethal lineup, which led them all the way to the ALCS last season, and it looks like another big year is instore for the MLB's lone Canadian representative. Toronto scored an MLB-best 891 runs last season.

The offense is paced by reigning AL MVP Josh Donaldson, who led the AL in runs (122) and RBIs (123) last season, while ranking third in the league with 41 homers.

A full season with Troy Tulowitzki will also prove pivotal for the Blue Jays, while Jose Bautista (114 RBIs) and Edwin Encarnacion (111) round out Toronto's intimidating lineup.

On the pitching front, Marcus Stroman and R.A. Dickey head the rotation. The Blue Jays also brought in Drew Storen to take over the closing duties.

Though it wasn't such a busy offseason for the Blue Jays, their lineup gives the club a great chance of repeating as AL East champions.

New York Yankees (87-75)

The Bronx Bombers are coming in on the heels of clinching a Wild Card berth and subsequent loss in the AL Wild Card Game to the Astros. They'll look for a deeper run this season.

Though they were quiet on the free agent front, the Yankees made two big trades, acquiring Starlin Castro from the Cubs and bringing in Aroldis Chapman, who will serve a 30-game suspension under the MLB's new domestic violence policy, from the Reds.

Chapman will help form a three-headed monster of a bullpen with Dellin Betances and Andrew Miller.

The Yankees do have some questions in the rotation, as Masahiro Tanaka is still dealing with a torn elbow ligament, Luis Severino and Michael Pineada will look to stay consistent and CC Sabathia, who finished last season in rehab for alcohol, may not even make the starting five.

The middle of the lineup s also aging, with Alex Rodriguez, 40, (33 homers in 2015), Mark Teixeira, 36, Carlos Beltran, 38, and Brian McCann, 32, all likely injury risks.

The Yankees should be competitive this season, especially if they have a lead after six innings.

Baltimore Orioles (81-81)

The Orioles' busy offseason included bringing in Mark Trumbo, Pedro Alvarez and Korean defector Hyun-soo Kim, while they also re-signed Chris Davis to a seven-year, $161 million contract.

Davis will be right in the middle of Baltimore's lineup after leading the MLB with 47 homers, but also pacing the league with 208 strikeouts. Davis, Manny Machado and Adam Jones will look to carry the offense this season.

Baltimore also tried to improve its rotation, bringing in Yovani Galliardo to join Ubaldo Jimenez and Chris Tillman at the top of the starting five after Wei-Yin Chen departed for the Marlins. Gallardo went 13-11 with a 3.42 ERA last season with the Rangers.

The Orioles middle of the lineup is strong, but there are a lot of question marks in the rotation as Tillman and Jimenez will look to bounce back from a 2015 campaign that saw both have ERAs over four. It may be a tough road for Baltimore in its attempt to get to the postseason.

Tampa Bay Rays (80-82)

The Rays appear to be a team on the rise, but it could be a tough road to the playoffs.

Tampa Bay brought in Corey Dickerson, Logan Morrison and Brad Miller this season, all of whom are expected to enter the starting lineup. The Rays' lineup is carried by third baseman Evan Longoria, who hit .270 with 21 homers and 73 RBIs last season.

Kevin Kiermaier had a breakout defensive season in 2015, good enough for 42 defensive runs saved, according to Fan Graphs, and he ranked second in the AL with 12 triples.

The young starting rotation should also be a strength for Tampa Bay in 2016, led by Chris Archer, 27, Drew Smyly, 26, and Jake Odorizzi, 26. Archer was fourth in the AL with 252 strikeouts in 2015.

The Rays could be on the rise this season, but may not have enough juice to make it into the playoffs.

Boston Red Sox (78-84)

After a last-place finish in 2015, the Red Sox opened up their pockets to address the issues with their rotation. Boston signed David Price on a seven-year, $217 million pact this offseason. Price went 18-5 with the Tigers and Blue Jays last season, with a 2.45 ERA which ranked fourth in the AL.

Though they brought in Price, there are some real questions over whether the Red Sox have enough juice in their rotation, as Clay Buchholz and Rick Porcello pose some questions.

Another big addition to the team this offseason was closer Craig Kimbrel, who finished third in the NL with 39 saves last season.

On the offensive side of things, the Red Sox didn't make many changes as the club will hope its young stars like Mookie Betts and Xander Bogaerts, who ranked second in the AL with a .320 batting average and 196 hits last season, continue to take the next step.

They'll also hope that Pablo Sandoval has a better season than his first in Boston, where he hit just .245. Another notable storyline will be the retirement of designated hitter David Ortiz at the end of the season.

The Red Sox have some potential with some of their young, developing players, but the addition of Price may not have been enough to help them overcome some woes with their rotation.

The Prediction

Here are our projected standings for the AL East in 2016:

1) Blue Jays (90-72)
2) Yankees (87-75)
3) Red Sox (83-79)
4) Rays (81-81)
