So there you have it. Am I a homer for picking the Red Sox? Yup, but I think they've got a very good team and their pitching depth will carry them. As to the awards, yes I know it's trendy to pick Pujols and Halladay in the NL, but I think both are going to be down for a bit with injuries and it'll allow someone else to step in and take the awards. I expect Lester to take that next step like Greinke did last year and Wainwright had a great season last year and he hardly gets mentioned. I think with Jeter finally slipping....... Texeira will get the recognition he should.
Either way, should be a fun season!

Yes you're a homer, but at least you picked the Red Sox to win it, not the Angels!

Not sure about the Cy Young, but I agree Lester's going to have a good year.
