It’s that time of year again. I go on record with my forecast for the major league baseball season. If you’re a betting person, my suggestion would be that you take my predictions and bet heavily on someone else. Here’s how I see it:
National League
East: Philadelphia Phillies
Central: Chicago Cubs
West: Los Angeles Dodgers
Wild card: New York Mets
NL champion: Chicago Cubs (!)
MVP: David Wright (Mets)
Cy Young: Dan Haren (Diamondbacks)
American League:
East: Boston Red Sox
Central: Cleveland Indians
West: Los Angeles Angels
Wild card: New York Yankees
AL champion: Boston Red Sox
MVP: Grady Sizemore (Indians)
Cy Young: C.C. Sabathia (Yankees)
World Series: Cubs over Red Sox in 6

Don’t count out my Redlegs. Good young arms, and a couple of future stars in Votto and Bruce. Probably a year or two away, but if they start to gel early, who knows?

Cubs over Red Sox in 6 would be so glorious. I love the David Wright for MVP pick. I have him too and bet money on it actually! He’s currently trading on OneSeason.com for around $14/share – which is really valuable compared to other MLB players
