2013 Awards
NL MVP - This one is going to be a little controversial, since many believe he is being drafted too high and expect a let down this year, but I believe this year will be a "Mike Trout" type of season, from the National League's version, on the team that will win it all this coming season, the Washington Nationals:
Bryce Harper
AL MVP - This one is easy... the best player in baseball makes it 2 in a row.
Miguel Cabrera
NL Cy Young - I could be a homer and give it to the best young pitcher in the National League (Matt Harvey), but I am going to be realistic and say that 70 wins does not allow your team to have the Cy Young award winner, 2 years in a row, so giving it to the best pitcher in the National League who will be allowed to pitch 200+ innings, it is a no-brainer
Stephen Strasburg
AL Cy Young - This is just a hunch... It would be easy to say that Verlander can do it again and he probably will put up enormous numbers, this guy, pitching on the eventual AL champs, will follow up last year's great season:
Jered Weaver
NL Rookie of the year - I have been in 10 drafts this year and have yet to snag either Adam Eaton or Oscar Taveras early enough. They both have rediculous talent and have a chance to put up huge rookie numbers: But I am going with the guy that is capable of hitting 30 HR's and possibly starting at second base
Jedd Gyorko
AL Rookie of the year - CORRECTION - Billy Hamilton, will not be traded and is in the NL...This one is more of a toss up. I don't like the rookie talent (as far as stats for this season), like that of the National League, although if I knew they were going to start all season, I would give it to Dylan Bundy or Jurickson Profar. Revised - So, even more of a toss up, I like Trevor Bauer to have a breakout season with the Indians.

NL Manager of the year - This guy will lead his team to 100+ wins and a World Championship:
Davey Johnson
AL Manager of the year - Sorry Yankee fans, but making the playoffs is going to be tough this year.. the Jays are much improved, the Rays will be in it, but the Orioles have a lot of talent and the best manager in baseball:
Buck Showalter
Fantasy MVPS - Obviously, I believe Miguel Cabera is tops on the list, again. The guy never gets injured. In addition, I think a 23-3 season is not out of the question for Stephen Strasburg.
Busts of the year -(Aside from Kate Upton) I see 2 guys looking at disappointing seasons : Carlos Gonzalez on an absolutely horrible Colorado Rockies team and YES, I am saying it, and obviously I don't want it to happen, but it always seems to happen to the Mets, David Wright.
