Baseball Predictions 2007

I wanted to get this on record before the season starts so you can make fun of me later.

As always, I will be completely biased and pick the Cardinals to win it all. It worked last year.

AL East: Red Sox. The Yankees' string of winning the division ends. Dice-K proves he can do it in the states.
AL Central: Tigers. Last year wasn't a fluke
AL West: Angels. Why not?
AL Wild Card: Yankees. The Yankees' string of making the playoffs does not end.

AL Champs: Red Sox.
AL Cy Young: Daisuke Matsuzaka. Yes, he'll be that good.
AL MVP: Alex Rodriguez. And Yankees fans will still hate him.

NL East: Mets. They'll eek it out over the Nats. By about 50 games.
NL Central: Cardinals. Duh.
NL West: Diamondbacks. I never really know who to predict in the NL West, so this is just a guess.
NL Wild Card: Brewers. I predicted a Brew Crew wild card last year too. Didn't happen. Maybe when it doesn't happen this year, I'll predict it again next year.

NL Champs: Cardinals. They'll win it again despite their drunk manager.
NL Cy Young: Chris Carpenter. Why not pick a Card for Cy Young too?
NL MVP: Albert Pujols. Let's make it a trifecta.

Your 2007 World Champion St. Louis Cardinals. Come on. Don't look so surprised.
