    well here we are, time to start another baseball season. let's here from people. who do you think will win your division ? go to league championship ? world series ? who will get the wildcard ? mvp for your league ? cy young ?

    i see the nl going like this.

    nl division winners -
    east - phillies( barely)
    central - brewers
    west - giants
    wildcard braves

    al division winners -
    east - red sox
    central - twins
    west - a's
    wildcard - white sox

    american league mvp - adrian gonzalez - watch out for this guy. gonna have a monster year.

    american leagure cy young - hernandez

    national league mvp - albert (contract year plus he's already sick)

    national league cy young - cole hamels - i have thinking about hamels situation for a while with the three additions to the starting rotation since last year and i think he may tear it up. that said there will be about 8 pitchers neck and neck for the nl's award. any one of them could take it and not be a bad pick.

    play ball ! :cope:

    NL division winners -
    east - Braves
    central - Cubs
    west - Giants
    wildcard- Phillies

    al division winners -
    east - Yankees
    central - Twins
    west - Rangers
    wildcard - Angels

    american league mvp - Adrian Gonzalez
    american leagure cy young - Peavy

    national league mvp - Tulowitzki (I know, its probably not a fave. but can't count out Pujols, maybe even Heyward of the Braves as a surprise in the running for this)

    national league cy young - I say Hamels or Lowe, either way .. I think it comes out of the NL East.

    Football weather on tap for quite a few games. It has been in the low 40s for the Braves/Nats. Yanks/Tigers cold weather.
