Reviewing My 2009 MLB Predictions

So the baseball season is over. Let us take a quick look at my predictions...


I was pretty close on a lot of teams but pretty atrocious on others. The worst of the worst were the Mets, whom I blame mostly on injuries, and the Indians who gave up midway through the season when they traded Lee and V-Mart. The only team I nailed perfectly were the Reds, which umm, was just a number.

If I did the calculations right than I finished respectable in comparison to some of the experts tabulated by Vegas Watch.

I got 5 of the 8 playoff teams right, which is kind of mediocre. I picked the Yankees to win it all, which sounds like a homer pick, except I haven't picked them at any time before this past season.

Numbers On Steroids: Bret Boone

Numbers on Steroids is a look at baseball players during the 90s to see if anything screams out at you. Mr. Boone was once the best power hitting second baseman in the league. How questionable was his success? Averages Say: Why the extra plateu in his mid 30s? At Bats Per Home Run Says: Lowest at Bats Per Home Runs at 37? Hmm.... Explaining It Away Yeak, this one is tough. Umm, late bloomer? He showed potential power early in his career and he just liked playing in Seattle a lot more than everywhere else? And umm, his career was kind of like a running backs in that it just all of a sudden fell off the map? Any of these convincing you? The Verdict Guy never hits more than 24 home runs in a season and then in his age 32 season he hits 37? And in SafeCo a pitchers park to boot? And he follows that up with 24, 35, 24 homer years still at SafeCo? And then he completely falls off the map in 2005 never to be heard from again? We've got a Screamer... Man Get Big Muscles In 30s. Hm...
