2009 MLB Predictions -- Predictable

I always say when I pick Boston or New York, I HOPE I'm wrong. If I pick them and they fail miserably and someone comes back to me at the end of the year and says, "See!", I'm perfectly fine with that. With that said, I will try not to let my hatred of the Evil Empires stand in the way of my sure-to-be-off predictions:

AL East
1) New York
2) Boston*
3) Tampa Bay
4) Baltimore
5) Toronto

AL Central
1) Cleveland
2) Minnesota
3) Chicago
4) Kansas City
5) Detroit

ALDS: New York over Oakland, Boston over Cleveland

Hope I'm wrong!
