Even from abroad, it's time for my annual horrific attempt to predict the year's MLB standings. Let's have at it, shall we:

American League
AL East
Yankees 98 64
Red Sox 94 68
Rays 91 73
Orioles 75 87
Blue Jays 73 91

AL Central
Twins 84 78
White Sox 83 79
Tigers 78 84
Indians 77 85
Royals 72 90

AL West
Rangers 83 79
Mariners 81 81
Angels 80 82
Athletics 77 85

National League

NL East
Phillies 89 73
Braves 87 75
Mets 80 82
Marlins 79 83
Nationals 72 90

NL Central
Cardinals 89 73
Cubs 82 80
Brewers 80 82
Reds 79 83
Pirates 74 88
Astros 67 95

NL West
Dodgers 88 74
Rockies 87 75
Diamondbacks 84 78
Giants 81 81
Padres 66 96

Hopefully the math is right - it should be, but sometimes I realize I don't know how to add or use a calculator - let's see if this works out better than previous years - I feel like I've gone less out on a limb for the most part, with the exception of maybe picking the Angels to not win the AL West again, which seems like always happens anyway. But maybe this is the year...
