Major League Baseball 2010.

The Major League Baseball season is upon us, and here are my picks to win it all.

National League East:
1. Philadelphia Phillies- could in division by double digits.
2. Atlanta Braves- Wagner in pen, Heyward making big splash.
3. Florida Marlins- Ramirez is a stud, pitching staff is a question mark.
4. New York Mets- Most disappointing team this year? Will Santana stay healthy? Don’t bet on it.
5. Washington Nationals- Strasbourg, Strasbourg, Strasbourg. When will he make the debut?

National League Central:
1. St. Louis Cardinals- Pujols will once again threaten for the triple crown.
2. Milwaukee Brewers- Braun and Fielder will hit a lot of homeruns. Can the pitching staff keep up?
3. Chicago Cubs- Will they EVER win another World Series? Not this year.
4. Cincinnati Reds- Fun young team, still not enough to threaten top dogs.
5. Houston Astros- Remember when they played in the World Series a few years ago? Me neither.
6. Pittsburgh Pirates- Man, could it get any worse? Quick, name 5 Pirates players….

National League West:
1. Colorado Rockies- Very underrated team. Could be surprise World Series team.
2. L.A. Dodgers- Could challenge Rockies for top spot in West. Good young squad, with Manny.
3. San Francisco Giants- Lincecum is fun to watch, their offense..not so much.
4. Arizona Diamondbacks- Young team, forgotten in the desert. Hopefully Webb can get healthy.
5. San Diego Padres- Not much offense..come to think, no much pitching either.

American League East:
1. Boston Red Sox- surprise pick? Maybe, but I think they get it done this year.
2. New York Yankees- Last year’s champs try again. It will come down to the wire between the Yanks and Sox.
3. Tampa Bay Rays- fun young team, might make a push towards the Wild Card.
4. Baltimore Orioles- Wieters is a fine young talent, but not much else is going on in Maryland.
5. Toronto Bluejays- Adam Lind was a breakout star, but Jays will need tons of pitching help. No more Halladay.

American League Central:
1. Detroit Tigers- Pitching staff is solid, can the offense come around?
2. Minnesota Twins- Loss of Nathan hurts, but Twins always find a way to compete.
3. Chicago White Sox- Interesting team, could challenge Twins for 2nd.
4. Cleveland Indians- Young team, give them a few years.
5. Kansas City Royals- Best AAA team in the majors. Greinke is lone bright spot, maybe Billy Butler.

American League West:
1. Texas Rangers- call me crazy or a homer, but these guys are due. Harden helps pitching, lineup is set.
2. Anaheim Angels- Favorite to win the West, injuries may slow them down.
3. Seattle Mariners- M’s made a lot of moves this offseason. Can Ichiro keep it going? This will be a close race.
4. Oakland A’s- Scrappy team that doesn’t have the talent. Will win some series they shouldn’t.

National League Playoffs: Phillies, Cardinals, Rockies, Dodgers
American League Playoffs: Red Sox, Tigers, Rangers, Yankees

World Series: Rockies vs. Red Sox (Red Sox in 6 games)
