Every year on the opening day of the Major League Baseball season I post my picks for the division winners and wildcard teams. I also pick how I think the playoffs will go.

This year I was especially awful and I thought you might like to laugh along with me at my terrible picks.

Below are my picks with the actual results in BOLD.

I got 2 of 11 correct…

Enjoy.
