    Here are mine, plenty of boring picking of favourites and one homer pick.

    NLE - Washington
    NLC - St. Louis
    NLW - Los Angeles
    ALE - Boston
    ALC - Chicago
    ALW - Seattle
    NL WCs - Pittsburgh, Miami
    AL WCs - Baltimore, Cleveland

    AL MVP - Cano (Mariners)
    NL MVP - Stanton (Marlins)
    AL Cy - Sale (White Sox)
