76-86.

Still about the same team that lost 90 last year.

74 Wins.

Unproven starting pitching, middling middle relief, no bench, and the possibility existing of multiple months with Corey Patterson manning center field all make me cautious about the upcoming season.

80 wins. Dusty holds them back from breaking .500.

I with ya. 80 sounds pretty good to me. Perhaps a tad optimistic.

81-81

But like Pedro said, I think this team has real potential to surprise depending on those young starters.

Even if all the questionable stuff you mentioned goes well, if Harang or Dunn were to get hurt or Phillips and Edwin don't do well, not to mention Griffey who you just can't count on at this point, they could have a lot of problems.

OTOH, look at the roster of the 1990 team and tell me they weren't an improbable story.

Re: Gonelong's 7th annual Season W/L prediction thread ...

89 wins and 73 loses is the rerecord of the new flag ship future Red's. Simple reason. rejuvenated pitching and new found hope that spreads threw out the whole dug out. Votto's 2nd half season Homer's 2nd half season after call up contribution and most of all the unknown wild card addition yet unknown that comes aboard.
