Re: 2010 - Gonelong's 9th annual Season Ws prediction thread .
83 wins. And I think that's conservative, as:
Better offense 10 Rolen > 09 EdE et al. 10 Stubbs > 09 Taveras 10 Cabrera > 09 Janish, AGon 10 Bruce > 09 Bruce 10 Phillips = 09 Phillips 10 Hernandez/ Hanigan = 09 Hernandez/ Hanigan 10 Gomes, Dickerson < 09 Gomes, Dickerson 10 Votto < 09 Votto Better defense 10 Rolen > 09 EdE et al. 10 Stubbs > 09 Taveras 10 Gomes, Dickerson > 09 Gomes, Dickerson 10 Bruce = 09 Bruce 10 Phillips = 09 Phillips 10 Votto =09 Votto 10 Hernandez/ Hanigan = 09 Hernandez/ Hanigan 10 Cabrera < 09 Janish, AGon Better starting staff 10 Cueto > 09 Cueto 10 Bailey > 09 Bailey 10 Chapman/ Leake/ Wood > 09 Owings/ Lehr/ Maloney/ Wells 10 Arroyo = 09 Arroyo 10 Harang = 09 Harang If they stay healthy, this team has a chance. If not, they don't. Pretty simple.

Re: 2010 - Gonelong's 9th annual Season Ws prediction thread .
80 wins. The pitching gives me concerns. I'm comfortable with Arroyo and Bailey right now. I'm not as comfortable with Harang, Cueto, and Wood. I also think the bullpen could slide back.
The offense should be a little better, the defense solid again. If the starting pitching holds up better than I expect, then the team could contend in the division. Hope it does. I'm very positive on the organization over the next several years, just skeptical about 2010. |

Re: 2010 - Gonelong's 9th annual Season Ws prediction thread .
Well I guessed 78 last year and hit it on the head however relative health would have resulted in 2-3 more wins at least i'm guessing. So with that in mind and some general optimism about the progression of the unit as a whole I am gonna go with 85 wins. This what my mind says, my gut says somewhere in the 87-88 range. But I'll stick with 85.

Re: 2010 - Gonelong's 9th annual Season Ws prediction thread .
Wow, I thought I was being optimistic with 80.
If this team wins, say, 84 games, it will still be a mediocre team with no chance at the playoffs. But it will be the first winning season in a decade and the team will use it as a reason to keep Baker, and the cycle of mediocrity will continue. So I am HOPING for 94 or 74 and really not much in between. God, I have been a fan of this team too long.
