For 2019 your AL predictions are hard to argue with.
NL? Agree w/ west and central. East is wide open. But probably Nats. Phillies will contend as will Atlanta and the Mets. Rockies will get a wc. Whoever is second in east will get the other.
Our big story this year in DC is how well Juan Soto responds after the Harper trade and how well Harper does in Phili and this naturally makes the Nats Phillies matchups more interesting. We invested in pitching and let Harper walk, hard to disagree with that approach.
agreed but what's the o/u? speaking of which , how can the red sox o/u be 94 1/2? they won 108 last year, kelly and kimble are 14 games better than this team ? i don't think so. kelly was a non factor all year until october and kimble reminded me of benetez (sp) when he pitched for the mutts, you never knew what to expect. if i lived in vegas or god forbid nj i'd bet the over on that one
The Sox # going down has alot more to do w them just returning to Earth this year, AND due to fact, that Vegas has to think that other teams will be getting better this year...both of those factors come into play effecting their projected # much more than the losses of Kelly, and Kimbrel.
I'm optimistic the South Siders will finally compete in the AL Central. The 4 year rebuild they have been working on for the last 8 years is coming to fruition.
Picked up Keuchel and Gio Gonzalez to provide much needed innings in the rotation to go with Lucas Giolito. Kopech and Carlos Rodon will be coming back from TJ surgery.
Moncada, Anderson, Abreu and Jimenez is a solid core.
Minor league studs Nick Madrigal 2B/SS and Luis Robert OF expected to be called up.
New additions - Grandal, Encarnacion, Mazara
Reinsdorf has some more money to spend. Puig has been named in the rumor mill. Castellanos would be nice but he probably wants a long term deal that the sox aren't willing to offer.
Still some pieces of the puzzle to fill and unproven young talent, but talent in the pipeline nonetheless.
