2013 MLB Predictions


The wait is over: the 2013 Major League Baseball season is upon us. Today begins the 162-game journey for 30 MLB teams to attempt to defy odds, live up to expectations, and be the next to hoist the Commissioner's Trophy in the Fall Classic. It is a long journey and with so many story lines, it is sure to be another entertaining season.

Last season, the San Francisco Giants picked up their second title in three seasons, sweeping the Detroit Tigers in the World Series, thanks in part to the contributions of the 2012 National League MVP Buster Posey and World Series Most Valuable Player Pablo Sandoval. Those same Giants are back this year, but will have to fight their way through a very crowded National League. On the American League side, the Tigers are back, returning most of the corp that played their way through October and making a few new additions, and their journey through the American League should certainly be easier than that of the Giants, with the American League considerably weaker.

Who will win the World Series in 2013? Who will pick up the hardware? Who will surprise, and who will disappoint? Alongside several contributors, we will make our best guesses.

The NC State Wolfpack came into the season with lofty expectations and a terrific set of players. Unfortunately, they fell short of their goal of winning the ACC regular season and tournament titles, and had to settle for an 8 seed in the NCAA Tournament. To make matters worse, they were bumped in the first round by the 9-seeded Temple Owls, ending their underachieving season.

Check Out Wake Forest's New Football Helmets


So it goes without saying that Wake Forest football has not had a lot to be excited about since the days of Aaron Curry, and their forgotten appearance in the Orange Bowl. The Demon Deacons stumbled to a 5-7 (3-5) record in 2012 and proceeded to get thumped by Vanderbilt 55-21 in their final game of the season. They may not have a lot to be happy about going into the 2013-14 season in the new-look ACC, but, there is some buzz being generated around the program today, thanks in part to a new look for themselves.
