MLB Predictions: Miguel Cabrera and the AL Central Preseason All-Stars

The American League Central division sometimes gets lost in the shuffle with big market teams like the Yankees and Red Sox eating up the national sports headlines.

Still, the AL Central boasts a great deal of talent and is typically a closely-contested division until the final week of the season.

MVP: Joe Mauer, 2009; Justin Morneau, 2006.

Cy Young: Zack Greinke, 2009; Cliff Lee, 2008; CC Sabathia, 2007; Johan Santana, 2006.
