WHICH TEAM IS BEST RIGHT NOW? The Cardinals. They have more wins than any other team.
Which one is worst? The Cubs. They don't have any wins yet and they have more losses than any other team.
The Twins play at noon today against Detroit. I decided to check what others are saying about the Twins chances this year. I guess I'm not alone in my belief that the Twins aren't going to have much success this year. For example:
Sports Illustrated picks the Twins for last place and 67 wins. ESPN.com
picks the Twins for last place and 68 wins. Baseball Prospectus projects
the Twins for last place and 71 wins. Bovada sets the Twins' over/under
win total at 72.5. FanGraphs projects the Twins for last place and 74
wins. Grantland picks the Twins for last place and "under 75 wins." CBS
Sports picks the Twins for last place. Yahoo Sports picks the Twins for
last place.
You get the idea.
One game at a time, I guess. One game at a time.
We're tied for the second best record in all of baseball right now!
With so many last place picks there will be no disappointment this year when they come in last last place.
ReplyDeleteFYI the worse team ever in the modern era of baseball (1900-present)
1935 Boston Braves, W- 38 L- 115, win % .248, GB 61½
Lets just hope that we can have a better record than this.
Well...IF we finish last in our division anyway, we might as well go for the record. What's another 20-25 losses among friends?
