The Phillies are going to be better than people think.

AL East - Toronto, NY Yankees, Baltimore, Boston, Tampa
AL Central - Royals, Twins, White Sox, Tigers***, Indians,
AL West - Astros, Rangers, Mariners, Angels, Athletics

NL East - NY Mets, Washington, Miami, Philadelphia, Atlanta
NL Central - St Louis, Cubs, Pittsburgh, Milwaukee, Cincinnati
NL West - Los Angeles, Arizona, San Francisco,San Diego, Colorado

WS - Royals (unfortunately) vs Cardinals. Cardinals win it all. WRITE IT THE **** DOWN!

***They just can't score. But hitting is offense. Well part of it. I mean if you exclude actually crossing home plate and running and stuff.

I just looked up the projected depth chart to see if I was missing something.

I wasn't. I don't see any route to 70 wins for this team.

73 wins.

This again. There's no way you believe that. Only runs scored determines how good your offense is. Just like saying Carolina had the best offense last year. They scored the most points even though they were outside the top 10 in yards/game.

You're retarded. Not even like Rainman.

I honestly think you guys are the retards. Saying Detroit isn't even a top 10 offense because of runs scored even though they were top 5 in nearly every offensive category is stupid. Because of bad luck and bad base running, they go from a top 3 offense to barely making top 15 according to y'all. There's no way you guys seriously think that. You guys are just arguing for the sake of arguing.

Dude. I'm not saying Detroit - didn't - have a good lineup. Obviously they did and do now. Its just that your statement that they were 'the second best offense in the majors' is a patently false and ridiculous statement. They did have a good batting average. But that average was lucky and there wasn't a lot behind it. Average walk rate. A K rate that wasn't very good. Pedestrian BA/RISP. Horrible base running. And of course the aforementioned result of these stats - the failure to score runs given the BA.

Thats all I'm gonna say about it from here on. Talking about Detroit as a top two 2015 'offense' is like talking about Donald Trump as a 'statesman'.

Truth is, Detroit has/had some good hitters. They didn't put it together. Therefore, 2nd best offense is bullshit. It just is. Homers say "Well, maybe top 10." Retards say "2nd best."

Fact.

Anyways here's my predictions:
AL East:
Blue Jays
Red Sox
Rays
Yankees
Orioles

AL Central:
Tigers
Royals
Indians
Twins
White Sox (worst record in AL)

AL West:
Rangers
Astros
Mariners
Athletics
Angels


NL East:
Nationals (this might finally be the year and ESPN will be all over it)
Mets
Marlins
Braves
Phillies (worst record in baseball)

NL Central:
Cardinals (like always)
Cubs
Pirates
Reds
Brewers

NL West:
Giants
Diamondbacks
Dodgers
Padres
Rockies

AL Wildcard:
Astros beat Royals

NL Wildcard:
Cubs beat Mets

ALDS:
Rangers beat Astros
Tigers beat Blue Jays

NLDS:
Cardinals beat Cubs
Nationals beat Giants

ALCS:
Tigers beat Rangers

NLCS:
Nationals beat Cardinals

World Series:
Tigers beat Nationals

AL MVP: Miguel Cabrera
NL MVP: Andrew McCutchen

AL Cy Young: Sonny Gray
NL Cy Young: Max Scherzer

Don't hate. Watch it happen.

Wow. I think someone just predicted the Tigers won the World Series.

Sit back, and watch it happen

OK, Corky.
