Braves: 2021 MLB Predictions from Tomahawk Take Staff
By James Kunkle
Samuel Peebles
- AL MVP- Mike Trout. Until he proves me wrong, I will never not pick him. Did you know he averages 9.79 WAR per 162 games played? Soto averages 5.69.
- NL MVP- Juan Soto. Mookie and Acuna will probably have better seasons from a body of work, but, voters love offense, and tend to overlook baserunning and lack of defense.
- AL Cy Young- Kenta Maeda. Making a bold prediction here. His peripherals are fantastic and he is bound to look great at some point.
- NL Cy Young- Jacob deGrom. Very similar to Trout, how can you bet against this guy?
- AL Roy- Nick Madrigal. He has elite contact skills and a microscopic swinging strike rate of 3.3. He could be a better version of Markakis.
- NL ROY- Ian Anderson. He obviously has the stuff and the composure as well as he demonstrated in the playoffs.
- AL East- Yankees
- AL Central- White Sox
- AL West- Astros
- NL East- Atlanta Braves
- NL Central- Cardinals
- NL West- Dodgers
- AL Wild Cards- Athletics and Indians
- NL Wild Cards- Mets and Padres
- Disappointments- Marlins and Rays
