My 2017 MLB Predictions

[MikeJackets]

I'm going to go with the Athletics in the AL just because that division is loaded and the Reds in the NL (they don't have a pitching staff). Overall worst record will probably be the Reds.

The Athletics will be truly awful it's amazing how quickly they fell to total s**t

That's very true, but I'm always amazed at how competitive they can be with the payroll that they have. This year is going to be a s**tshow for them though.

They're going to be as bad or maybe worse than the were during the horrid 1982-1986 seasons. At least during that time period they had rookies Mark McGuire and Jose Canseco now they have nothing.

Hopefully the Braves hitting will improve because the hitting outside of Dansby Swanson looked awful in yesterday's 6-0 loss to the Mets.

The hitting will come around, however I'm extremely concerned with the bullpen. I knew that it wasn't going to be fantastic, but yesterday was ridiculous.

and Freddie!

Freddie was great also sorry about the omission! I think if the Braves collapse and are out of it by the trade deadline Freddie Freeman could be put on the trading block.

Oh I don't see him going anywhere!

I hope you're correct the Braves would be really,really bad in 2018 without his bat.

 

[ChasonBaller]

If Freeman is traded it would be for 5 top tier prospects maybe even more. I doubt it happens but if someone wants to pull a Shelby Miller off, be my guest

[MikeJackets]

The Cleveland Indians are going to be a powerhouse they've worked over the strong Texas Rangers the last two games. I think it's very possible that Cleveland wins 100 games and i think Texas wins around 95.

 

[MikeJackets]

The Braves got a nice win over the Mets in New York and the Indians look like world beaters so far.

 

[MikeJackets]

The Braves look like they're on their way to 1-6 and look awful. I think this team could wind up only winning around 65-66 games.

 

[Squints]

Who do you think will have the worst record in MLB this year? I was looking at some of the depth charts...wow some really bad teams on paper.
I'll go with Brewers

Padres are going to be teeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrriiiiiiiiiiiiiiibbbblllllllllle.

 

[ChasonBaller]

4 game win streak!!! *whispers we are playing the Padres*
But it was awesome seeing Bartolo throw a 1 hitter

I like what i see!

 

[MikeJackets]

The Braves have won 5 in a row and are now 6-6, I live what i'm seeing with this team.

Going to be interesting to see how the series with the Nats goes!

It's going to be nice if the Braves can take 2 of 3 from the Nationals.
