Baseball is around the corner - predictions time

Name your final record for your team and where they place


Cubs 91 wins and National league Central Champion, goes to the playoffs and loses in the second round to the Phillies

 

[Tre4ISU]

Mariners will the AL West and make it to the World Series

 

[SC Cy]

The Pirates will not win the NL Central, they might not even reach .500, but they will lay some serious groundwork that will make people pay attention in 2011.

I think recent history would say that a 1st round sweep is in order for the cubs, but i hope you're wrong.

 

[Final42b]

Cardinals 94 wins NL central champs. Lose to Phillies in pennant.

There's a hilarious commercial out there where they put up this "Hope Springs eternal" thing, with all these teams' fans saying stuff like, "World Series baby!"

The Pirates fan in the ad said, "We're headed in the right direction"...it wouldn't have been as funny if everybody else didn't talk about championships and stuff.

NL West - Rockies
NL Central - Cardinals
NL East - Phillies
NL WC - Braves

AL West - Rangers
AL Central - Twins
AL East - Yankees
AL WC - Red Sox

That's pretty much exactly what I'm thinking.

and for those NL East fans
Cards
Reds -9
Brewers -11
Cubs -14
Pirates -16
Astros -25

Sad thing is, the AL East has the three best teams in the AL (3 of the top 5 in all of baseball) and only two can make the playoffs.

 

[RhoadsRage]

Twins.....90 wins, AL Central champs, lose to the Yanks again. :sad: If we had Nathan, maybe 94 wins, still same result????

[milrtym]

Royals, only 93 loses this year and stay 1 game ahead of the Indians to stay out of last place. Grienke 20 wins! (some how)

 

[tccoach]

My Baltimore Orioles will win 75 games...remember the name Brian Matusz...AL ROY this season...Will be a Cy Young winner for the O's in seasons ahead.

 

[CloneIce]

Royals win 74 and finish 4th in the Central.

Mets win 80, 4th in the East.

Another tough year but I am pumped for baseball to start!

That would be the NL CENTRAL and you are off your rocker to think the Cubs will finish 14 games behind the Cards.I would love to set up a side with you if you really believe that.PM me any ideas if you really believe what you say.

Matusz could be a stud.

Who is #3? The Rays?

You do realize the Cubs were tied for 1st on 8/6 of last season and ended up finishing 8 back correct?

Twins win yet another tie-breaker game to win the division against the Tigers after Guerrier losses his last four games as the closer. They then go on to beat the Rays and then lose to the Angels in the ALCS.
