    Mid Season Bold prediction thread

    This is the thread to express what you think will happen that many might disagree with. For example I will start with one I have, and I know many will disagree.

    The Mets will NOT win the NL East.

    Detroit will either not make the playoffs or lose in the ALDS.

    Less bold, considering the standings, but bold nevertheless given their domination in recent seasons, the Cardinals will not win the NLcentral.

    The Yankees will win 8 of the final 9 meetings against the Red Sox, including a sweep of the 5 game series in August.

    The Yanks will miss the playoffs (I REALLY hope I'm wrong about that)

    Jesus Montero since June 1 (286 at-bats):
    .325/.386/.605/.991
    July 1 (182 at-bats):

    The Yanks will go on a tear towards the end of the season and end up winning # 27.

    I would agree with you, especially considering how their rotation is in shambles, but that would mean someone would have to overtake them. As bad as the Mets are going right now, the rest of the division is worse.

    That's both bold and wrong.

    Substitute the Yankees for the Mets and the AL East for the NL East and you have an accurate prediction.

    I disagree unless we do the smart thing which would be to punt this season and then trade Mussina and Sheffield both for top prospects then sign both of them along with Zito again during the off season, along with anything else we might need.

    1. The White Sox will not have a good second half.

    2. Farnsworth will have a better 2nd half than Tom Gordon.
    “I mean, people knew that Brown was out there, and that Randy was ornery all the time. And Pavano is whoever he is. But if you’re their manager, you can’t go out and write about them like that.

    The Astros will not finish over .500

    Clemens will have a 4.50 ERA.

    The Mets will rebound from the past week and win the NL East by more than 20 games.

    I'm going to be random... after all they're just guesses.

    The Twins will make the playoffs

    The Wild Card will not come out of the AL East

    The Mets will win not make it out of the first round of the playoffs

    The NLCS winner is actually competitive in the World Series
