The other "starters" wouldn't start for most big league teams. Rotation is a joke. Bullpen is the only thing that makes the rotation look semi-respectable. And that’s not a compliment. It’s like saying, “Next to the asteroid taking out our planet, this whole COVID thing ain’t half bad.” (Bonus points if you have “killer asteroid” on your Hunger Games 2020 Bingo card). Like I said...20-40, but I honestly think it will be closer to 17-43. If everything breaks wrong, and let's be honest...when DOESN'T it break wrong with this team...they could lose 45.

Well, we may lose 45 games, but at least Cherington will get to see what he has.

Glad you're starting to see the light.

I’d like to revise my prediction. There’s no way this team wins 20 games. No chance. 15-45. Even that might be pushing it. I honestly don’t know if they’d win the International League. They’re going to finish ST, or whatever we’re calling it, 3-18. How in the *^%# do you go 3-18? Even not trying, you should still lick your way to seven or eight wins. In a full season, this team would be an absolute lock to lose 100.
