Predictions For the 2010 Season

I would like to initially thank Brandon C. of Pinstripe Alley, who, in turn, thanked Bless You Boys, for the inspiration behind this idea, but the concept here is pretty simple. 50 questions, and the objective is to give the best prediction you can for it (hence "predictions". I'm a genius). Questions are worth 2 points each, and the person with the most points wins. Questions follow after the jump.

Star-divide

1. Who will win the AL East

2. AL Central

3. AL West

4. NL East

5. NL Central

6. NL West

7. Who plays in the ALCS (first team)

8. Who plays in the ALCS (second team)

9. Who plays in the NLCS (first team)

10. Who plays in the NLCS (second team)

11. Who wins the World Series

12. Who wins the World Series MVP

13. Who will win the AL MVP

14. NL MVP

15. AL Cy Young

16. NL Cy Young

17. AL Rookie of the Year

18. NL Rookie of the Year

19. AL Manager of the Year

20. NL Manager of the Year

21. Number of home runs Bartlett

22. Home Runs Burrell

23. Home Runs Pena

24. Home Runs Longoria

25. Home Runs Upton

26. Home Runs Shoppach

27. Home Runs Zobrist

28. Home Runs Joyce

29. Stolen Bases Crawford

30. Wins Shields

31. Wins Garza

32. Wins Niemann

33. Wins Price

34. Games Started Sonnanstine

35. Games Started Davis

36. Games Pitched in Sonnanstine

37. Games Pitched in Davis

38. Saves Soriano

39. Games played Desmond Jennings (MLB)

40. Stolen Bases Desmond Jennings (MLB)

41. MLB Games Pitched in Jeremy Hellickson

42. Home Runs Navarro

43. First manager fired

44. 2nd place in AL East

45. 3rd place in AL East

46. 4th place in AL East

47. 5th place in AL East

48. No hitters/perfect games thrown MLB

49. Home Runs Jonny Gomes

50. Wins Edwin Jackson

For reference:

 

For all the categories, if the player gets traded it doesn't matter the stats still count (ex: Sonnanstine is traded midseason, gets 14 appearances overall, 2 with Rays....14 would be correct number, not 2)

changing AL ROY from Davis to Brignac

he might not start right away but will find his way in the line-up sooner rather than later and becomes this years Chris Coghlan, with much better defense.

Can we get robots for umpires and a computer to make in game strategy decisions? I'm sick of inconsistently bad umpiring and Joe's pitiful in game management. Oh and Navi (and BJ) need some PED's. BenZo, Bartlett, and Pena do not.

PETCOA has updated their predictions again, and are now predicting the Rays and the Sox to finish with the same record and the Yankees to finish 3rd.

I was unaware of this

also, from what I can recall, I can’t remember BP changing up their projections this much.

This has to be at least the 4th version of their projected 2010 standings.
