It should be noted that Shoeless was overlooked and emitted from the published table of contents, as he provided at least half of the effort put into the BBA Glossary of Terms.

Wanted to call him out for much deserved credit, as well as take some of the expected backlash. :)

Excellent work again, men! Aaron and Justin did their usual sparkling jobs on the previews, and I loved Sean’s piece on Don Smith and the BBA glossary (even without Doug’s byline, you could see his influence). If I haven’t mentioned something, it’s because I’m still reading. Well done, all!

Well if there's one good thing I can take from your predictions, is that at least my win total lands on 69.....



(Phenomenal job on the guide!)

I vehemently disagree with the San Fernando projection and predict I will exceed it by at least 10 games if not more.

I have no problem with this disagreement, but I feel to do that you'd have to develop a major league pitcher. Any one major league pitcher will do.

i think barton and cortez can be solid mid-rotation guys this year (cortez when healthy of course), and i think guevara will be above average this year.

And that would be the whole list, yes. You have correctly pointed out you have two #3 starters, an intriguing question mark, and a tire fire.

The highlight is clearly the BBA Glossery of Terms! Outstanding work on that Joe. Loved it!!!

And good prediction for Portland. I'd love to see the team push for .500 but even my own WAR prediction shows the team just around the mid 70s mark. A bullpen and a power bat are sorely needed.

you asked for one i gave you 3 :D In all seriousness, if i can carry a dumpster fire of a staff to nearly .500, then even a slightly less burning dumpster fire should give me a shot at .500.

That's how I analyzed it, yes.
