BP just released this year's PECOTA projections: http://www.baseballprospectus.com/ar...rticleid=19602
According to their team depth charts, they have the Reds down for 92-70, tied for the 2nd best record in MLB with the Yankees and Tigers. The Dodgers come in #1 at 93-69.
The Cards come in 2nd in the NL Central as just 84-78.
I found the visual depth chart a really cool way to quickly compare teams.
When I put their mean projections in to my projection spreadsheet, I came out with 89 wins.
