1. Seattle: Erik Bedard and Felix Hernandez could be the best match in Seattle since Jimi Hendrix and his guitar. Big Carlos Silva will gobble up 200 innings (as long as that's the most of anything he eats, he'll be OK). Jarrod Washburn is the No. 4 starter and No. 5 starter Miguel Batista won 16 games last year, for crying out loud. Let's see other teams match that depth. If the Mariners can score more than last year, they'll win. Of course, that means Richie Sexson has to get off his duff.
