MLB predictions for 2016: Divisions, postseason, World Series, awards – CBSSports.com
The 2016 Major League Baseball season is just a few days away, so it’s that time again. Our staff of CBS Sports baseball writers are here to provide you with our predictions for the upcoming season. It needs to be noted that the sport is inherently unpredictable, so much of what you see below is bound to be incorrect. That’s just how it works with injuries, trades, overperformances and underperformances.
Still, it’s great fun to get a snapshot of how we think it’ll go down this season. Then a bunch of people get to complain about how “no one ever believes in (insert favorite team)” — or this can be used to prove those complaints false.
Picks come from senior writer Jonah Keri and Eye on Baseball scribes R.J. Anderson, Mike Axisa, Dayn Perry and Matt Snyder. Definitely join in on the fun by making your own picks in the comments section. Or you can be a coward and just say these picks “suck” without making any of your own. Your choice.
