You need to list how many runs the team will score. And you can't say how many they'll score in 2050.
We will give extra credit if he correctly predicts the 2050 runs.

_Hey Bobster, how many $$$$ is the credit worth and when can I get it. Don't kick the can down the road.

The credit is worth an 8 x 10 glossy of Ben Cherington and a copy of his soon to be released book, "I Took This Job Just to Piss Off Shedman."

I don't know what kind of voodoo math they're using by I sure can't see 61 wins. Have they looked at the roster?

I think that it's one of those things where the math isn't adapting quickly enough. There's a strong presumption that teams are trying to improve, and that when things get bad they'll flail about and try to fix things, and that some of those things will work out. I don't think that the models have adapted yet to teams that have decided not to come up for air.

Good point. Hard to quantify when teams are working in the opposite direction of trying to win.

I think this would be 2 games not played. No matter, I was getting a little sad that at 56-106, mine was looking like the most optimistic projection!
