2020 MLB Predictions Sure to be Wrong

Baseball season starts tomorrow!!!  Will be an exciting, shortened season.  Let's get in to it.


Well last year's predictions were pretty horrendous. 

Let's see how this year goes...

AL East:
1. New York Yankees (43-17)
2. Tampa Bay Rays (35-25)
3. Boston Red Sox (31-29)
4. Toronto Blue Jays (27-33)
5. Baltimore Orioles (22-38)

The Bronx Bombers will bludgeon the league to death in this shortened season.

AL Central:
1. Cleveland Indians (35-25)
2. Minnesota Twins (34-26)
3. Chicago White Sox (29-31)
4. Kansas City Royals (26-34)
5. Detroit Tigers (23-37)

The Tribe bats better wake up early this season if they have a chance of getting back on top the division.

AL West:
1. Los Angeles Angels (33-27)
2. Oakland Athletics (32-28)
3. *Houston Astros (30-30)
4. Seattle Mariners (25-35)
5. Texas Rangers (20-40)

The Astros will be beaned in to submission this season as they lose the top spot in the west.

NL East:
1. Atlanta Braves (37-23)
2. Washington Nationals (34-26)
3. Miami Marlins (34-26)
4. Philadelphia Phillies (27-33)
5. New York Mets (23-37)

Young Braves roll again.  Look for a big tumble from the defending champion Nats.

NL Central:
1. Milwaukee Brewers (36-24)
2. St. Louis Cardinals (32-28)
3. Cincinnati Reds (30-30)
4. Chicago Cubs (25-35)
5. Pittsburgh Pirates (22-38)

Reds won't finish last, but the hype balloon will be popped early and often and Trevor Bauer implodes.

NL West:
1. Los Angeles Dodgers (44-16)
2. Arizona Diamondbacks (31-29)
4. Colorado Rockies (28-38)
5. San Diego Padres (27-33)
3. San Francisco Giants (25-35)

Dodgers cruise to another division title, should be wrapped up by early September.
