Division Winners and Wildcard: NL West: LAD NL Central: STL NL East: ATL NL WC: NYM
AL West: OAK AL Central: CLE AL East: NYY AL WC: TOR
Divisional Series: STL over NYM. ATL over LAD. OAK over TOR. CLE over NYY.
League Champion Series: STL over ATL. OAK over CLE.
World Series: Oak beats STL in 4.
Awards:
NL MVP: Albert Pujols NL Cy Young: Carlos Zambrano NL ROY: Conor Jackson NL MOY: Bobby Cox
AL MVP: A-Rod AL Cy Young: Johan Santana(I'd pick Harden if I knew he was going to be healthy because of advantage in Wins) AL ROY: Jason Kubel or Francisco Liriano(who ever gets more playing time earlier) AL MOY: Ken Macha
Random Predictions:
-Oakland wins over 100 games easily. -Harden goes down with unjury and misses significant time, but Sarloos and Kennedy fill the void and OAK dominates anyways. -Liriano and Kubel get PT and heat up around the ASB and get twins into the Wild Card hunt with Santana leading the way, but it isn't enough because they are so bad in the first half. -Beckett has dominant record(12-3,13-2,10-2 being possibilities), but misses over 10 starts and BOS misses playoffs. -Soriano fails to make All-Star team, while Brad Wilkerson plays. -Chris Young posts a sub 3.3 ERA, but wins less then 12 games.

I didn't put team names after the players there...I copied and pasted from the post above me just to get the categories down. Guess I didn't do a good job of deleting all the extra info.

Here are my predictions of each team with the number of wins in brackets. The numbers don't add up, I don't care.
AL Least Bos [92] NYY [91] Tor [88] Bal [76] TB [71]
AL Central Min [94] Cle [94] (Wildcard) Sox [88] Det [72] KC [60]
AL West LAA [91] A's [84] Tex [79] Sea [72]
NL East Mets[94] Atl [90](Wildcard) Phi [85] Was [79] Fla [65]
NL Central Stl [99] Hou [85] Mil [84] Cubs[83] Reds[77] Pit [68]
NL West SF [85] SD [76] LA [76] Ari [69] Col [68]
Min v. LAA - Twins win; Bos v. Cle - Tribe wins. Stl v. Atl - Cards win; Mets v. SF - Mets win.
St. Louis vs. Clevland... St. Louis wins all.
AL MVP: ARod NL MVP: Bonds AL CY Young: Johan Santana NL CY Young: Pedro Martinez AL ROY: Chris Ray NL ROY: Mike Jacobs AL Comeback POY: Cory Patterson NL: Bonds, who becomes the all-time HR leader in late September in Colorado. All the haters can kiss his ass.

Damn scribbner's error, that was DET [94] wildcard in the AL Central ;)
Not bad if I do say so myself. Overestimated the Red Sox, Cleveland, St. Louis, and the Giants. Seriously underestimated the Marlins but no one imagined their year. Overestimated the NL completely. The Pedro-less Mets are about equal to the A's in my mind, the rest of the NL field is abysmal.
Worst prediction: J thinking Morgan Ensburg for NL MVP. Snicker
I still can't believe the A's won the West. Take the Mariners out and Oakland finishes 72-67, the Angels 79-63. Play this season 10 times and the Angels win 8. Billy Beane with his smoke and mirrors. The Twins are going to go all Bruce Lee Enter the Dragon on that act.
