Predicting win totals in December is like trying to call the World Series winner in April...wildly premature but always entertaining. For me, it’s less about accuracy right now and more about seeing where Vegas is optimistic or skeptical. Teams like the Nationals at 69.5? That feels like an easy over to me. What’s your biggest over/under lock?
If Atlanta doesn’t make another move but everyone they have stays healthy, they’re easily 95 wins. If they do more, potentially 100. They’re still one of the big dogs. People seem To have forgotten,
Dude! Milwaukee lost Adames as well! Where are those 112 RBI's going to magically come from? I watched his highlight reel from last year and he single handedly had 5 game-winning walk off hits broskie.
NL East doesnt matter the standings. Division winner just ends up complaining about the bye. I do see Philly as the team to take a step back. Cubs or Giants will get WC ahead of them.
⚾⚾⚾Tigers will go up only if they improve at first and third, but we'll do it. So many injuries last year during our slump. They came back, but Bregman and Sazaki would help us greatly improve. PLUS ❤️ we got Cobb! 🤷
You do realize the Braves still have a top 5 rotation in baseball, right ? And Riley will Be there. Harris. Ozuna. Acuna at some point. Olson. Albies. All healthy right now. Idk how you can say That
Im taking Dbacks: over A’s: over Braves: over Orioles: same opinion because its 89.5 I’m taking under but it’s 89 Red Sox: nailed it again with 84 But with the Red Sox I’m going over Cubs: nailed it again lol I’ll take the over with the Cubs White Sox: over Reds: over Guardians: over Rockies: over Tigers: over Astros: under Royals: over Angels: under? I thought I was gonna have the over what is this o/u
@zlo2889 yanno what, then anyone can have a channel stating what their gut says. You think baseball sites like Fangraphs, BR, and the rest pull numbers from thin air as their predictions? Also, rosters haven't been set for 2025. Or is he factoring in player movement as part of his prediction. This is a stunt worthy of Jays Digest, not him.
Phillies are better than thwe Mets in every way. Starting rotation, Bullpen, and Lineup. Mets got hot that is it! Were the Diamondbacks better than the Dodgers last year? Senga, Peterson, and Clay Holmes heading a rotation is one of the most mediocre pitching rotations I've ever seen and they have a lineup that includes Tyrone Taylor who shouldnt ever be a starter on a ML team. Jose Siri will probably get 500 at bats on his team. Mark Vientos is now highlighted on a scouting report. Starling Marte blows. I'm betting under 86 wins and I'll win that bet for sure.Mets are going to Met and thats written in the rock that is the foundation of destiny's house.
An aging core including a 34 year old catcher and desperately trying to trade an all star 3B? Wheeler is not going to have the year hes had prior and the Phillies dont have a bullpen that really scares me. This team has peaked and they're stuck in bad deals. Gimme 85 for Philly 91 for Mets who aren't done adding.

Braves got 89 wins with all the injuries. 93 is low. I promise you they’ll be over .
All that to finish 3rd 😆🤣 they won't finish above Philly or the Mets
Toronto 76.5 feels like a very easy over. Unless they completely tear it down at the deadline I don’t see them being any worse than 2024

To have forgotten,
Get those likes up please! Support Jim!
Padres didn't have Musgrove or Tatis for most of last year. I can absolutely see them winning 94 games
Remember that the O’s just signed a top 3 pitcher from Japan.

What's with the AL central lolll, they have the Twins, Guardians, Royals and Tigers at 82-83 wins each....
I think they are giving the AL central, up ranks because they play the White Sox alot
Im taking
Dbacks: over
A’s: over
Braves: over
Orioles: same opinion because its 89.5 I’m taking under but it’s 89
Red Sox: nailed it again with 84
But with the Red Sox I’m going over
Cubs: nailed it again lol I’ll take the over with the Cubs
White Sox: over
Reds: over
Guardians: over
Rockies: over
Tigers: over
Astros: under
Royals: over
Angels: under? I thought I was gonna have the over what is this o/u
So you're predicting the wins not using any predictive algorithm of your own but using your gut?
Why not it’s his predictions

Houston could easily win over 95 games
Braves will win 80!

That graph is from October and a lot of changes in November and December.
Braves fan here...unless we add a good SP I'd say 89 wins is about right. Sale and Lopez regression. .Strider health and replacement for Fried???
Brewers lost Adames. Thats a big deal for a team that’s garbage offensively.
