The yearly picks return after a one year hiatus. Gallivanting around Europe will cause that... So we won't even get in to how I did in 2014, but I'm pretty sure everything was completely wrong.
I've managed to not participate in any fantasy baseball leagues the past two years, so haven't been staying up on the sport as much, which means I'll likely ace everything this year.
AL East:
1. Boston Red Sox (91-71)
2. Toronto Blue Jays (90-72)
3. New York Yankees (81-81)
4. Tampa Bay Rays (71-91)
5. Baltimore Orioles (70-92)
The Red Sox bounce back from a horrid 2015 and hold off the Blue Jays for the division title. It's short lived though as they get swept by the Royals in the divisional playoffs.
AL Central:
1. Kansas City Royals (98-64)
2. Cleveland Indians (94-68)
3. Minnesota Twins (87-75)
4. Detroit Tigers (74-88)
5. Chicago White Sox (66-96)
The Royals hold off the Indians in the AL Central, while the Twins and their young studs are a year away yet.
AL West:
1. Houston Astros (99-63)
2. Oakland Athletics (87-75)
3. LA Angels (82-80)
4. Seattle Mariners (74-88)
5. Texas Rangers (69-93)
The Astros are for real as they cruise to the division title only to get bounced by the Indians in the playoffs. Mike Trout's talent is again wasted in LA.
NL East:
1. NY Mets (97-65)
2. Washington Nationals (89-73)
3. Miami Marlins (76-86)
4. Atlanta Braves (71-91)
5. Philadelphia Phillies (62-100)
The Miracle Mets keep up the momentum from 2015 and cruise to the division title. The games best two young players in Harper and Trout both miss the playoffs yet again.
NL Central:
1. Chicago Cubs (100-62)
2. Pittsburgh Pirates (92-70)
3. St. Louis Cardinals (82-80)
4. Milwaukee Brewers (70-92)
5. Cincinnati Reds (56-106)
Is this the year the curse ends? The Cubs cruise to 100 wins en route to the World Series. The Reds are easily the worst team in MLB.
NL West:
1. San Francisco Giants (95-67)
2. LA Dodgers (90-72)
3. San Diego Padres (74-88)
4. Colorado Rockies (72-90)
5. Arizona Diamondbacks (71-91)
It's an even year, so the Giants play well but can't get past the Cubs in the NLCS.
AL Widcard:
Cleveland Indians over Toronto Blue Jays
AL Divisional Series:
Cleveland Indians 3 Houston Astros 2
Kansas City Royals 3 Boston Red Sox 0
AL Championship Series:
Cleveland Indians 4 Kansas City Royals 3
NL Wildcard:
Pittsburgh Pirates over LA Dodgers
NL Divisional Series:
Chicago Cubs 3 Pittsburgh Pirates 2
San Francisco Giants 3 NY Mets 1
NL Championship Series:
Chicago Cubs 4 San Francisco Giants 2
World Series:
Cleveland Indians 3 Chicago Cubs 3 (World Ends before Game 7)
AL Cy Young: David Price
AL MVP: Michael Brantley
AL ROY: Byron Buxton
NL Cy Young: Clayton Kershaw
NL MVP: Bryce Harper
NL ROY: Steven Matz
Assuming the world doesn't end... the Cleveland Curse continues and the Cubs win first World Series since 1908.
