Panerista Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Okay, who voted less than 54? That would make for a great pick, but even the 2012 Cubs won 61 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Apr 1, 2017 -> 03:46 PM) He has a .488 OBP and his OPS is 1.070. Which isn't top 100 in the NCAA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleHurt05 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 1, 2017 -> 03:30 PM) I am interested in seeing how I react. I've paid close attention to every season for a long time. But losing game after game is probably going to be the end of my fandom unless I somehow consider all the losing comical. Since I'm not a draft guy, I don't trust our front office to draft the right guys so I don't care about the draft at all. I do have mlb.com again cause I forgot to cancel the automatic recharging. I do know I hate losing and I am expecting 110 or more losses.  The team has made the playoffs once in 11 seasons, none in the past 8. If you are still a fan now, why would a few more years of losing change anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panerista Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Apr 2, 2017 -> 08:26 AM) Well, to be fair, Rodon. Touche. However, the only way to make Rodon even meaningful is to rebuild something different and more effective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpd9189 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 I'm going with 70 wins. However if they trade Q early in the season then we're looking at somewhere in the mid to low 60's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmarComing25 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 (edited) I'll go with 68 wins. If we do somehow win 75+ hopefully it's because Moncada/Giolito/Lopez/Burdi/Abreu/Anderson/Rodon/Frazier/Quintana are vastly exceeding expectations and not because we got some run differential luck.

southsider2k5 Posted October 1, 2017 Author Share Posted October 1, 2017 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 31, 2017 -> 11:44 AM) 69, just because. Â I am feeling pretty good about this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSox13 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Looks like I had picked the 68-71 range. Pretty close, I'll take it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I said 65-97, and I should have been right, dammit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
