Picking Joba to win the Cy young makes me question your sobriety more than the Nats for the WC.

*Other predictions:
- The Brewers will finish 4th in the NL Central
- ARod hits 45+ HRs
- The Red Sox won't make the playoffs, and will spend $300+ mil next offseason
- The Royals won't finish in last in the AL Central

I'm sure I have others, but that's off the top of my head.

Not a drinker, but I like some of the offseason moves they made. Plus, deep down, I've kinda liked the Nats since they were born.

Adam Dunn does not make an offseason. Scott Olsen is no better than a #4 SP... I like ATL's offseason more, if you wanted to make a crazy NL East pick :)

Why? He had a 2.60 ERA last year in his mix of bullpen and starting work. 1.26 WHIP isn't great but not bad. Doesn't give up a lot of home runs, strikes out a ton. Has an offense behind him that can get him W's when he doesn't pitch well.
 
AL East Champ - Boston
AL Central Champ - Minnesota
AL West Champ - Los Angeles of Anaheim
AL Wild Card - Tampa Bay

NL East Champ - New York
NL Central Champ - Chicago (because there's no better option)
NL West Champ - Los Angeles
NL Wild Card - Philadelphia

ALDS - Twins, Angels
NLDS Mets, Phillies

ALCS - Angels
NLCS - Mets

WS - Mets

AL MVP - Morneau
NL MVP - Wright

AL Cy Young - Halladay
NL Cy Young - Santana

This, of course, is all dependent on whether the Mets offense does anything the first half of the season, unlike last season...

All of that is true, but This will be the first year were people have really seen his starting stuff before. Last year when he switched to a starter people hadn't seen him yet(yes, they saw him from the bullpen but that is completely different from starting.) I am not saying I do not think he will be a good pitcher, I just don't think that this will be the year he wins a Cy young. Especially with the gaudy numbers the rest of that staff is capable of putting up. If he does win it I will gladly eat my words because he is maybe the only Yankee that I like, but I just respectfully disagree.

You say that as if winning the NL Central means anything this year (they might as well hand them the title and save the division 162 games as no one's going to compete with them this year, and it's not because the Cubs are so "spectacularly awesome")...
 
*disclaimer - a lot of these are total homer picks and I know it*
