There seems to be a huge potential range of results for the team this year. Anywhere from 60 to 100 wins could be argued. The high end is if the Reds start well, get good fan support, management is willing to pick up some salary at the break. Strong finish.
The low end involves a slow start, Rolen gets hurt, team gets very young, Harang and Arroyo struggle or get hurt, rest of starters mediocre. Team dumps salary at the deadline by trading Phillips (replacing with Frazier) to be able to move one of the higher cost pitchers. Limp home.

I will settle on 87-75.
