MLB Season Preview

Before we get started, make sure you didn’t miss my latest “Scoop” (I say this because I’m making a rare two posts in one day).

N.L. West

1. San Francisco Giants
2. Los Angeles Dodgers (wild card)
3. Colorado Rockies
4. San Diego Padres
5. Arizona Diamondbacks

N.L. Central

1. Cincinnati Reds
2. Milwaukee Brewers
3. St. Louis Cardinals
4. Chicago Cubs
5. Houston Astros
6. Pittsburgh Pirates

N.L. East

1. Philadelphia Phillies
2. Atlanta Braves
3. Florida Marlins
4. New York Mets
5. Washington Nationals

A.L. West

1. Texas Rangers
2. Oakland A’s
3. Los Angeles Angels
4. Seattle Mariners

A.L. Central

1. Chicago White Sox
2. Minnesota Twins
3. Detroit Tigers
4. Cleveland Indians
5. Kansas City Royals

A.L. East

1. Boston Red Sox
2. New York Yankees (wild card)
3. Tampa Bay Rays
4. Toronto Blue Jays
5. Baltimore Orioles

World Series: Phillies over Yankees

AL MVP – Alex Rodriguez

NL MVP – Albert Pujols

AL Cy Young – Jon Lester

NL Cy Young – Clayton Kershaw

AL ROY – Jeremy Hellickson

NL ROY – Brandon Belt

Over/Unders:

(these are all bets I actually placed at normal -110 juice at the Las Vegas Hilton)

New York Yankees over 91.5

Los Angeles Dodgers over 83.5

Philadelphia Phillies under 96.5

Tampa Bay Rays over 84

Toronto Blue Jays over 76.5

(Others I like include: White Sox over 84.5, Royals under 69.5, Reds over 85.5, Astros under 72.5 and Padres over 75).

I also took the Reds at 5/2 to win the NL Central and have the Brewers to win the World Series at 40/1.

I also have Jay Bruce (30/1), Carlos Quentin (100/1) and Justin Upton (100/1) to lead MLB in home runs.

By the way, these aren’t for entertainment purposes only. These are all for serious cash, and I need a comeback after this recent epic fail.

    How bout dem A’s for the west? No Braves for Wildcard? More Wins bet $50 Dodgers vs Braves DDD?

    The A’s are definitely sneaky. Wouldn’t surprise me if they won the West.

    No on that bet. I flipped a coin b/w the Braves and LAD (or COL or MIL or STL) for the WC. The Braves are legit. They could win the NL. That would be a bad bet anyway since Vegas o/v for LAD is 83.5 and it’s 87.5 for ATL.

    Also, doesn’t there seem to be too much groupthink going on with this year’s predictions? Seems to me like the same teams are all generally being picked to make the playoffs, and then everyone has BOS over PHI. Or something close to it.
