95 wins

We are better than last year but that isn't always reflected in wins, especially without Felix. I'm thinking around 95-67.

I'll say 92-95 wins. A lot has to go right to win 100 games but they'll be close. Then again, they have to stay relatively healthy to pull that off.

Can we wait until mid May and see if Means and/or Bradish are going to be able to pitch?
92-70
Fall Projection:
Second in ALE.
Win WC matchup.
Win ALDS
Win ALCS
Then we'll see.

94 wins, enough to win the division.
Posted 25 March 2024 - 09:31 AM
91-71

I think some of y'all are being pretty conservative with your estimates. There's going to be some regression, but 10+ games worth with an objectively better lineup and adding a true ace?

Burnes is somewhat mitigated by losing Bradish for who knows how long. BP is a question mark. I see a big variation for them: they could be good or they could be awful. Really depends on Kimbrel and Cano.
I agree, offense should be good. Probably about the same as last year.

90-72 feels like a solid 50th percentile outcome

I agree they are better. Pythagorean was 94 last year. If I recall correctly the hitting was especially timely and the bullpen was generally very good at protecting leads. I think either or both of those could be worse just due to randomness, and plus no Felix. Also adding an ace could be a wash if Bradish is out longer term or loses effectiveness. For me, teams just don’t win 105 games that often so expecting to have better results than last year is just asking to be disappointed, so I’ve tempered expectations. I wouldn’t really be shocked by 90 or over 100 wins. 80some would be surprising.
