Today we reveal the Baseball Prospectus staff predictions for the division standings and the major player awards (MVP, Cy Young, and Rookie of the Year) in the American and National Leagues. Each staff member's division standings predictions may be found later in the article. Here, we present a wisdom-of-the-crowds summary of the results. In each table you'll find the average rank of each team in their division with first-place votes in parentheses, plus the results of our pre-season MVP, Cy Young, and Rookie of the Year voting.

For the MVP voting, we've slightly amended the traditional points system in place that has been used elsewhere, dropping fourth- and fifth-place votes to make it 10-7-5 for the MVP Award, and the regular 5-3-1 for the Cy Young and Rookie of the Year Awards (that's 5 points for a first-place vote, 3 points for a second-place vote, etc.).

Looks like the NL divisional races will be over early!

I think they're right. The NL looks incredibly boring this year.

Thank you Matt Sussman and Stefan Segui.

Being the only unanimous last would've been sad.

In the latest Playoff Odds run, here's the breakdown of the NL seasons which didn't end with *any* of the three "chalk" division winners we picked:

Total 6.46%
ATL,CIN,SFN 0.90%
ATL,MIL,SFN 0.64%
ATL,PIT,SFN 0.44%
(75 other combinations not listed)

Seasons where all three of LAN,SLN,WAS won their respective divisions occurred 18.08% of the time.

Bold prediction from Dan Rozenson about reverting to one WC per league. Take that, Selig!
PeterCollery
3/21
How is it that in none of the consensus divisional standings does the sum of the average positions ever reach 15? Also, how is it possible for the Nationals to be 1.0 consensus finisher with the Nats being 1.9? I'd have thought that the sum of those two would have to at least equal 3.
aidanpalmer
3/22
If I counted right: the Nationals were picked 1st 38 times and 2nd twice, so they should be 1.05 (not 1.0), while the Braves were picked 1st twice, 2nd 37 times and 3rd once, so they should be 1.98 (not 1.9).

I think someone was sloppy in adding up the votes.
statsrath
3/22
Fixed, thanks.
aidanpalmer
3/22
I went back and re-tallied the counts, for anyone who's interested.

1st column of numbers is average place.
2nd column of numbers is the number of 1st place votes (there were 40 voters so there are 40 1st place votes per division).
3rd column of numbers is the number of "wild card" votes (only 79 per league, because Dan Rozenson only picked 1 WC per league).

Red Sox 1.5 23 16
Rays 1.7 16 20
Yankees 3.3 1 5
Orioles 4.1 0 0
Blue Jays 4.6 0 1

Tigers 1.0 39 1
Royals 2.4 0 16
Indians 2.7 1 4
White Sox 4.2 0 0
Twins 4.7 0 0

Rangers 1.7 20 8
Athletics 2.0 14 5
Angels 2.5 6 3
Mariners 3.9 0 0
Astros 5.0 0 0

Nationals 1.1 38 2
Braves 2.0 2 23
Mets 3.5 0 0
Phillies 3.8 0 0
Marlins 4.7 0 0

Cardinals 1.1 38 2
Reds 2.4 2 18
Pirates 2.9 0 12
Brewers 3.8 0 3
Cubs 4.9 0 0

Dodgers 1.0 39 1
Giants 2.3 1 14
Diamondbacks 3.3 0 4
Padres 3.7 0 0
Rockies 4.7 0 0

Chris King picked the Marlins 4th AND 5th (I assumed the 4th place vote was intended for the Phillies) and the Orioles 3rd AND 5th (I assumed the 5th place vote was for the Blue Jays).

Mike Gianella doesn't have Trout on his MVP list?

Isn't that grounds for banishment from the BP team?

Too bad for Atlanta. I wonder what the NL East would have looked like 2 weeks ago.

Mike Olt's graph seems to be a little off unless he somehow managed to receive 6 1st place votes.

I predict that Seattle will win more games than Texas. Angels will win more than both and are my favorite to win the AL West. I hope I'm at least somewhat wrong since I'm an Oakland A's fan.

I can now record up to 6 shows at once thanks to... the Harpuh, from Dish Network.

Bryce to win the first of many!

WOW

I am always amazed at the amount of group think here at BP but this year you guys really outdid yourselves.

Wash 38 (how wrong was this last year?)

St. Louis 36 (I guess the Pirates really have no chance)

LAD 38 (I never recall such a consensus for the Yankees with all that money)

Trout 30 (even when he loses you think he actually won the award)

Why hire 40 writers when you need only 2-3 to deliver the company line?
BurrRutledge
3/23
The Astros make the playoffs in over 1% of the simulations, but I wouldn't put my money on them.

My picks:
AL

4 races out of 13 with a consensus, one of which is just obvious, two that are pretty clear (LAD, STL). What exactly are you complaining about?

The season is over now, and every prediction that you questioned here proved to be correct.

Maybe rather than criticize BP writers, you should try learning something from these guys.

Hosmer and Myers over Cano for AL MVP is.... interesting

And Pedroia, on a team where he's got a lot more competition than Cano does.

***I think it would be fun to see how last years predictions turned out. Also creating a chart that showed which staff members were the best and worst at those predictions. That way it means something.

Here's the number of 1st place votes to win the division from last year.

Nothing to be proud of at all.

Where were your picks again? It's easy to criticize (especially after the year is completed).

It's like you're actually surprised that we can't predict the future of 30 teams in a 162-game season with laser accuracy.

That's really the nature of the data. Looking at what we know today, if you pick against the Tigers, Nationals, Cardinals, or Dodgers, you're making a conscious choice to pick the second (or third) best team in the division. I doubt the guys who selected the Indians, Braves, or Giants would really wager $1000 straight up against the favorite -- and if they would they should hop a flight to Vegas.

Yet despite the obvious CHOICE for 1st place, no one thinks those teams are 100% or even 90% to win the division. But they're all well over 50% and thus near unanimous choices.

Pujols being left off the MVP board will look silly in Sept.
