Predictions

Let's make a quick run through the divisions, I'll pick division winners and a wild card from each league.

AL East- Yanks- Why is noone picking them? They're loaded with pitching, and despite the fact that I hate them, they're going to be good.

AL Central- Indians- this is going to be probably the weakest division in baseball. However, look for it to be extremely competitive. In the battle of the suckies, Cleveland will suck the least.

AL West- another weak division, but like everyone else you've got to pick the Angels.

AL Wild Card- Boston, they're deep in pitching and can Tampa really repeat?

NL West- Giants. Dodgers get all the talk, but they have no pitching. The Giants are loaded with pitching and have an improved line-up.

NL Central- Cubs, duh.

NL East- Braves. Maybe a homer pick, but I really like the new look and pitching depth. If not the division they'll take the wild card, but I can't pick against them.

NL Wild Card- Phils, because I can't pick the Mets. I think the Phils left handed line-up is suspect and so is their pitching after Hamels. Hamels is a young ace, but the next starters have a combined age of 874,699.

The playoffs are a crap-shoot. I'll say the Red Sox eventually win it all. Still would love to see a Braves/Sox Series!

Let's hope its not 1990, you may remember that was the worst portion of the worst-to-first 90-91.
