Let the Games Begin

Today is Opening Day (at least for 26 Major League teams) and all the drama of America's pastime begins anew. Ryan Zimmerman started the season with a bang, blasting a walk-off home run to win the first game at Nationals Park. If that 2-out, bottom-of-the-ninth shot is any indication, this season will be a very exciting one to behold.

We'll take this opportunity to offer our predictions for this year's superlatives:

AL MVP
Wilson: Miguel Cabrera
Bishoff: Miguel Cabrera

NL MVP
Wilson: Mark Teixiera
Bishoff: Ryan Howard

AL Cy Young
Wilson: C.C. Sabathia
Bishoff: Erik Bedard

NL Cy Young
Wilson: Brandon Webb
Bishoff: Carlos Zambrano

AL Rookie of the Year
Wilson: Joba Chamberlain
Bishoff: Evan Longoria

NL Rookie of the Year
