AMERICAN LEAGUE MVP

Top Five: Miguel Cabrera (+550), Adrian Gonzalez (+600), Josh Hamilton (+1000), Joe Mauer (+10000) Alex Rodriguez (+1000)
Sleeper: Nelson Cruz (+3500)
Bust: Joe Mauer (+1000)

The Adrian Gonzalez hype train is already out of control even though he hasn’t played a game with the Boston Red Sox yet. Still – I’m driving that train. A-Gonz is leaving a brutal lineup in San Diego and the game’s toughest park on hitters, PETCO Park, to join a stacked lineup in a park that favors hitters. Add up his road numbers the last two seasons and you get 48 homers and 122 RBI over 161 games. That sounds like an MVP season to me.

Pick: Adrian Gonzalez +600

NATIONAL LEAGUE MVP

Top Five: Albert Pujols (+300), Joey Votto (+550), Ryan Braun (+800), Troy Tulowitzki (+800), Prince Fielder (+1200)
Sleeper: Buster Posey (+3500)
Bust: Carlos Gonzalez (+1200)

Super sophomores like Buster Posey and Jason Heyward are intriguing plays. Troy Tulowitzki is as good as anyone when he’s healthy. Prince Fielder will be motivated in a contract year. But there’s nothing scarier than Mr. Albert Pujols in his contract year. I’expect huge things and another MVP award for his shelf.

Pick: Albert Pujols +300

AMERICAN LEAGUE CY YOUNG

Top Five: Felix Hernandez (+350), C.C. Sabathia (+550), Jon Lester (+600), David Price (+700), Justin Verlander (+1000)
Sleeper: Francisco Liriano (+1800)
Bust: Clay Buchholz (+1200)

It’s pretty much a given that Felix Hernandez, C.C. Sabathia and Justin Verlander will contend for the Cy Young as always. Those aces are among the game’s most reliable stars. Price has elite talent and certainly belongs in the elite tier after his breakout in 2010. But, to me, it’s Jon Lester’s time. He’s been quietly dynamite over the last two seasons, averaging 17 wins and 225 strikeouts, and he’ll finally get recognized this season. Sports Betting at Sportsbook.com

Pick: Jon Lester +600

NATIONAL LEAGUE CY YOUNG

Top Five: Roy Halladay (+400), Tim Lincecum (+400), Josh Johnson (+700), Cliff Lee (+700), Ubaldo Jimenez (+1000)
Sleeper: Tommy Hanson (+2000)
Bust: Mat Latos (+2000)

If I listed the top 10 candidates, four of the Phillies’ top five starters would make the cut. It’s enough to make you wonder if the Philly guys will split the votes next fall and open the door for Tim Lincecum to reclaim his crown. However, I still think Roy Halladay will prevail yet again. He’s in his prime and there is simply no one who prepares – or pitches – better than Doc on Planet Earth right now.

Pick: Roy Halladay +400
