Preseason Predictions
We're about an hour away from Opening Day, but before then, here are the in-game Preseason Predictions. Obviously, I'm thrilled with the predictions, but we still have to actually play baseball games before I can crown myself a pennant winner. The CA looks to be separated into three close groups, the bottom feeders (Wolves, Foresters, and Saints), the one piece away group (Stars, Kings, Sailors, and Cannons), and the (hopeful) champion Cougars. We have more top position players (4) then any other team and the same amount of top pitchers (3) as both Philadelphia teams. We're predicted to finish first in the CA in runs scored (848) and second in runs allowed (651) which would be a good recipe for success.
Honestly, as much as I love my team and think we are the best in the league, I do not expect us to run away with the division. There are a lot of good teams in the CA and I'm expecting a closer pennant race then the game projects. Not only that, injuries can happen at any time and every other CA team has a better farm system then me, including the #2 system in Baltimore. Regardless, I like our chances and so does the game. One thing I am certain is that I can't wait for fake baseball to return!
