1970 Pre-Season Predictions
The pre-season predictions for the 1970 WPK season have been published, and as they did last year, the prognosticators foresee a second place finish for the Brewers, behind the Phoenix Speed Devils.
While they see Denver as once again being the best team in terms of keeping the other team from scoring (with the best team ERA and pitcher strikeout totals in either league), the believe them to be under-powered offensively. (Which is a fair argument.)
The big difference this year is that they see Phoenix as having improved on the defensive/pitching side and actually finishing second to the Brewers in fewest runs allowed while still having a pretty potent offense.
Brewers management maintains that they are happy to be under-estimated and the team will prove, once again, that they are the team to beat in the MGL.
It's Opening Day! Time for the Brewers to begin their defense of the MGL pennant.
