    Re: 2018 Predictions

    Since Prov is going into full on rebuilding mode, the NL is going to be either the Mets, Astros, Cubs, or me if I can manage an upset.

    The upset would involve a lot of 2-1 and 1-0 victories, though.

    more like semi-rebuild, but I shouldn't be going too far in the playoffs if I get there. it all depends on if I can move more people.

    Either way, I'd like to thank you for improving my chances for going anywhere in the playoffs, even if those chances remain slim.

    Re: 2018 Predictions

    Modified to Reflect the Seattle-Cin trade

    AL East:
    1) Tampa Bay- Reloads bench with some nice FA signings
    2) Boston- Needs a CF but should remain strong
    3) Baltimore- Also needs a CF, this team can leapfrog Boston if they get that piece
    4) NYY- Not good enougth for this loaded division
    5) Toronto- Rebuilding process is nice, but lack of GM will cause organizational instability

    AL Central:
    1) Minnesota- In Saber I trust
    2 CWS- now that their ownership is back will they actually be good or do they go for the WS?
    3) Cleveland- Not that good but better than the last 2
    4) KC
    5) Detroit- Might be a sleeper in race for #1 pick

    AL West:
    1) Angels- This division is his to choke away
    2) Seattle (WC) - Going to give ANA a run for his money
    3) A's- Looking good, but will they stay healthy?
    4) Texas- The resurgence will begin this year...and still be last


    NL East:
    1) Mets- I accurately had them in the playoffs last year, and this year they will be in the WS
    2) Florida- By default cause nothing below them is good
    3) Philadelphia- If shadow does something, he'll finish 3rd
    4) Atlanta- If General does something, he'll finish 3rd
    5) Washington- If LJ does something, he'll still be in last place... in hunt for the #1 pick

    NL Central:
    1) STL- Duh... but prov will not make the WS
    2) CHC- rest of the division sucks so I'll take a guess
    3) Pittsburgh- if Witlon ever did anything...
    4) Houston- Pitching is terrible but not as bad as...
    5) Cincinnati- Young hitting specs are up at the MLB level but SP is HORRENDOUS... provs AAA rotation is 20x better, favorite to land #1 pick

    NL West-
    1) SD- Leo should do well
    2) Arizona (WC)- call it a gut pick
    3) Colorado
    4) San Francisco

    ALCS: Min-BOS with Min winning in 6
    NLCS: NYM-STL with NYM winning in 7

    WS: Min-NYM with MIN winning in 7

    Re: 2018 Predictions

    I still won't pick against the cardinals. He's traded away pieces, but if you've been in tssl a long time, the cardinals crank out talent like Angelina Jolie cranks out babies. Harden and Street won't die that fast, his top four hitters are 30 and under, he has a great looking catcher in the wings if he doesn't deal him, and then there's still Boatman, Hernandez, and Cambra. A great core of talent can easily tear through the postseason.

    I think he will take a slight step back but that would be the LCS.

    Nope, you never did. You won the division when I wasn't even in the league, and after I traded away Vlad, Utley, Bay, Harang and didn't bother resigning Colon, etc.

    Don't the two go hand in hand? Bad teams that go for the WS usually spin the wheels. Believe me, being a Sox fan for years, I know that all too well.
