Let’s play over or under. Below you’ll see the PECOTA projections for the upcoming season: just say whether you would take the over or under on the projections per team. No explanation necessary, but feel free :)

AL Central:

  1. Minnesota -> 89.0 wins
  2. Cleveland -> 83.0 wins
  3. Detroit -> 75.3 wins
  4. Kansas City -> 70.9 wins
  5. Chicago -> 65.6 wins

  • Minnesota: under, although not by much. I think 89 wins is going to be tough, but they got a deep bullpen and if they can be healthy this year they probably do well.
  • Cleveland: under, unless their rotation can be more productive and throw more innings.
  • Detroit: equal or under. I think they'll take a step forward. Especially Torkelson and Skubal and hopefully we'll see Jace Jung this year. But they're leaning a lot on Baez, Urshela and Vierling to fill the left side of the infield.
  • Kansas City: over. With upgrades to their bullpen and rotation they should at least be better than their 56 wins last year. And I think Witt will find another level and Paquantino will take a step. Maybe it's more a hopeful 'over' though
  • Chicago: under. A lot has to go right for this team to be better than last year and I think they'll trade Cease (maybe more) at the deadline, if not earlier.
