Opening Day is a week away which means it's time for this guy's annual(ly wrong) MLB predictions. My 2014 guesses weren't terrible but 2015 was a whole different beast. I had the Nationals beating the White Sox in the World Series (neither team even made the playoffs) and I had the Cubs and Astros in the basement of their respective divisions (both teams won the wildcard). I only got one AL playoff team correct. Oops. On the plus side, I got 3 out of 5 NL playoff teams right and nailed the NL ROY award only because it was almost as obvious as picking Mike Trout for the AL MVP in 2014. And I sort of predicted Cole Hamels would be a Ranger. Regardless, the 2015 season is in the books and it's now time to take a close look at the 2016 teams and make educated guesses about how this upcoming season is going to play out. Play Ball! (Division winners bolded, wild card teams in italics) AL East: Rays , Blue Jays , Yankees, Red Sox, Orioles AL Central: Indians , Tigers,
