I dont get how you all are predicting us to do worse than last year...barring injury that just doesnt make sense to me

Yes but injuries are a very real part of a sport in which there are 162 games.

We're really weak at 1B and there are giant swiss cheese holes in the rotation

After our #1 and #2 this team is ridiculously weak.

[BigGameFish]

and how is that different than last year?!

[Ramp]

so like players can't regress?

we might not do as well in 1 run games?

questions?

[BigGameFish]

Yea thats a legit reason

I guess I'm letting my fan-ness get in the way a bit

85 Wins
3rd Place, practically 2nd with near identical to Braves
+30 run differential
Major set back in 1 run game record accounting for relative non-movement of record.

Randoms
1. Volstad emerges as a solid 4 to projectably eat 200 innings in a Gavin Floyd kind of way (4.25 era/1.35 whip) here on out. Everyone is relatively happy about it.
2. Ross struggles, Cantu and Uggla do not. None are resigned.
3. Robertson does not embarrass himself, Anibal does. Neither are resigned.
4. West emerges as the best of Miller and Vanden Hurk, West looks like the longterm # 5 of occasional dominance, occasional wildness, the others are relievers. They bring Miller back despite the price for one more shot.
5. Maybin goes quasi Adam Jones/Andrew McCutchen on everyone.
6. Gaby Sanchez has a productive .775OPS/15 HR, plays a little 3B out of nowhere, and looks to replace Wes Helms next year when Morrison pushes him out
7. Bonifacio's OPS jumps 75 points, still sucks
--------------------

88-74

Wild Card winner.
