Group 3 Results

I'm going to stick with the same format I used with Group 2.....here we go!

Win Totals

1907
1907 Cubs- 99.....Coming out of the gate in a huge way in their home season...we'll see if they can sustain this
1969 Orioles- 80
2014 Dodgers- 79
1992 Braves- 78
1937 Giants- 77
1957 Braves- 73....Pretty bunched up after the Cubs...no idea who is a real contender

1937
1992 Braves- 88
1969 Orioles- 86....Not dominant, but 2 2nd place finishes
2014 Dodgers- 84
1937 Giants- 78.....So many teams don't really do much in their own season
1907 Cubs- 77.....Big drop is worrisome for them
1957 Braves- 73.....Consistent, but not in a good way.

1957
1969 Orioles- 90.....Might be the front runners now
1992 Braves- 84
1907 Cubs- 84.....Nice to see them recover a little
2014 Dodgers- 82.....Not too bad- probably keeps them in it
1957 Braves- 81....5th place, but no many wins behind
1937 Giants- 65....Hard to recover from a season like this

1969
2014 Dodgers- 90....This thing is still wide open
1969 Orioles- 83....Pretty consistent, but not a sure thing at all
1992 Braves- 80....Need a 90+ season to really have a chance
1907 Cubs- 79....That 99-win first season keeps them alive
1937 Giants- 77.....Probably too far back at this point
1957 Braves- 77.....Also too far back now, but can be a spoiler for sure

1992
1907 Cubs- 89....Didn't expect this...pitching depth not coming into play for them, I guess
1957 Braves- 84
1969 Orioles- 84
2014 Dodgers- 83
1992 Braves- 79....Very surprised with this, but I shouldn't be since it's happened a lot
1937 Giants- 67....Toast

2014
1992 Braves- 95.....Back in it!
2014 Dodgers- 90....Better than many do in their home season
1969 Orioles- 85....Consistency, but is it enough
1937 Giants- 78
1907 Cubs- 76
1957 Braves- 62
