I predict...

Eric Milton will be on the DL to start the season. Hey, I'm right!

Prediction: Griffey goes on the DL sometime this season.

Heh

Even before the season last year, I was telling the Mets to suck it. I really hate the Mets.

what???

D-Rays finishing ahead of the Yanks? Man, that's harsh. The Jays, I could see, but the D-Rays? o_O

:-P

If the Yanks are even close to finishing behind the D-Rays, Torre will be fired in mid-season.

Bold statement

I know but do you think anyone had the Tigers in the world series last season before it started.I like Kazmir,Fossum,Shields,Corocorn.I like Even Longoria,Upton,Baldelli,and Zorbist.

Cubs over the Indians in 6 games...

Too many people are picking the Dodgers who I hate more than the Nun and Slyde hate the Mets/Yanks.
I think there'll be some Piniella magic this year for the Northsiders, which says a lot since I'm a Cubbie hater, too.
But right now the Reds are in first!

I got some splainin to do

I'm a little embarrassed to have my picks thrown up on the front page. I'm not crazy about the Dodgers, but I really like their depth all the way into the upper minors (basically the same reason I picked the A's last year). I ended up with some trendy, yet somewhat unlikely teams in the playoffs (Brewers, Indians) and I didn't want to pick the Yankees so I went with Dodgers over Red Sox. Old teams, seems classy. I really have no idea this year.

I want to amend my NL bounceback to Adam Dunn.

because baseball IS played with numbers

The Diamond Mind simulations are in. We've got a 9.9% chance of making the playoffs and are averaging more wins than Milwaukee. No one averages 90 wins in the NL.

They have the Red Sox finishing third behind the Jays again.
