MLB Preview: A West Coast World Series?

Every sporting web site has their own MLB predictions. This one was rather tough for me because I think St. Louis is even better this year than last and last year they won the World Series. However, I don't think they are going to repeat. It would be nice, but history just says otherwise. So here are my predictions. Feel free to rip them apart, but if you do, you must back them up with predictions of your own so I can rip your apart. Parentheses indicate overall rank and Asterisk indicates winner of Wild Card
