2022 Team

[Butcher]

I guess it depends how many pieces get traded at the deadline. If Contreras, Hendricks and Stroman are all traded (which I could absolutely see happening), 100 losses is definitely within the realm of possibility.

I'm going with 72 wins. That said, I think this season will be a lot more fun than 2021 especially once Davis, Kilian and Velasquez are called up.

[Butcher]

I'm going to revise my bleak prediction. 100 losses is a catastrophic season. This team will likely be just mediocre and since the NL Central isn't exactly a powerhouse, they'll probably win more than 62 games. I'll go one game over rok's prediction. 73 wins.

[funkster]

Mediocre seems more likely.  I dont think this lineup is really that bad.

[rok]

I may go as high as 78 wins if this keeps up.

[Butcher]

Im revising my prediction to 98 wins and the division.

Someone tweeted Gleyber's numbers over the last three years....guessing that we're no longer sad to have lost him.

[Butcher]

The Yankees fan who used to say, thanks for Torres every time I saw him has stopped. So I just assumed hes fallen off a bit.

[rok]

I’m surprised he’s still a Yankee. That said, he’s still only 25. I’d take a chance on him.

[funkster]

Kind of feel bad for him tbh.

Can basically say the same for Eloy honestly, he hasn't been much a world beater either.

[rok]

You’re 100% right. Add in his terrible OF defense and he really has been a disappointment. Can’t stay healthy either.

[funkster]

Bad for them, but certainly takes my bitterness away.

[rok]

Still hate that trade though. Losing Cease alone for a few years of Quintana makes my balls retract.

At the risk of saddening everyone, Paul Blackburn (he of the first Theoyer draft class) is currently sporting a 1.46 ERA starting for the A's. Cant believe he's still in baseball let alone dominating.
