Bet your bottom dollar...

I gave some baseball predictions just before the season started. Here's how I faired.

American League East: Yankees (CORRECT!)
American League Central: Tigers (WRONG! White Sox)
American League West: Angels (CORRECT!)
American League Wild Card: Minnesota (maybe the Red Sox?) (HALF-CREDIT)
American League MVP: Pudge Rodríguez or Hideki Matsui (WRONG! Alex Rodriguez)

National League East: Braves (CORRECT!)
National League Central: Cardinals (CORRECT!)
National League West: Padres (CORRECT!)
National League Wild Card: Astros (maybe the Marlins?) (CORRECT!)
National League MVP: Albert Puljols (CORRECT!)

All Star Game Winner: American League (CORRECT!)
All Star Game MVP: Derek Jeter (WRONG! Miguel Tejada)

Other noteworthy predictions:
Jim Thome will hit 50 home runs. (WRONG! he only played 59 games due to injury)
Phillies will make a run at the wild card, but fall short. (CORRECT!)
Pedro Martinez will only win 11 games. (WRONG! 15)
Ken Griffey Jr. will hit 40 home runs. (WRONG! 35)
Ichiro will end the season with an average over .370 but not more than .400. (WRONG! .303)
