Do I know baseball, or what?

Back on March 1st I took the plunge and made predictions for the coming baseball season, instead of providing you with a link, I'm just reposting the entry in its entirety. Read it and then take a look at the image below from the sportswriters over at Yahoo. It's interesting where the predictions deviate - no one believes the Giants can win the NL West or the Mets can win the NL East. What is interesting is just how many agree with my assessment of the AL standings but look for yourself and of course we’ll see where things fall by November...

NL EAST
Mets
(I’m biased)
Braves
Nationals
Marlins
Phillies
AL EAST:
Red Sox
Orioles
Yankees
Blue Jays
Rays
NL CENTRAL
Cubs
Cardinals
Pirates
Brewers
Reds
AL CENTRAL
Indians
Royals
Tigers
White Sox
Twins
NL WEST
Giants
Dodgers
Padres
Rockies
Diamondbacks
AL WEST
Astros
Rangers
Mariners
Angels
A’s
I’m not going as far as to predict who will be the two wild card teams and who will manage to make it through the playoffs... OR WAIT... SHOULD I!

Okay, what the hell!
NL Wild Card teams:
Dodgers
Braves
AL Wild Card teams:
Rangers
Orioles
Playoffs 1st Round
Giants face Mets
Braves face Cubs
Playoffs 1st Round
Rangers face Indians
Astros face Boston
LCS
Mets face Cubs
Boston face Indians
WS
Mets face Boston
