Call Your Shots -- 1984

[spot]

California will finish in the top two in the Porter Division and win the Wild Card.

The only problem I see with this is that the wild card is coming out of the Bock.

[Spectre]

Ray Provencia will be the Fresh New Brew in the DL
Tony Romo will hit over .300

Mississippi will have the worst starting pitching in the DL again, but it will be better than last year.

Here are my playoff picks:
Maine, Sin City, Denver, Pittsburgh WC

Washington, Davenport, Philly, Wilmington WC

I wish you luck as you go for the wild card.

BUMP

Since we're just past the halfway point in games... thought I'd bump this to see how we're doing....

Just scanned the thread but a few real good ones in here...

-- Dani Alvarez for IL RNB -- I think this one is a lock already

-- I called Virginia having two 100 RBI seasons and Harcourt and Nelson are both on pace to do it.

-- Howard Haydon definately on pace for 90+ RBIs

-- Cali coming in 2nd doesn't look good... but they have an outside shot at 3 10 games winners.

[Jistic]

Defying all odds I guarantee that we'll content for the division title.

Now THAT is genius.

[BradleyB]

Now THAT is genius.

or at least it would have been if you spelled contend correctly.

[Clay]

Maybe he meant that he'd just be really satisfied by it???

[Lintyfresh85]

I'll add another to the list.

California will have three 10 game winners this year in the starting rotation.

Bump:

Goal complete!

Jorge Lorral 10-11
Elieis Vizcarra 10-8
Joe Toapanta 10-6

Possible 4th starter with 10 wins after next sim as well!

Oswaldo Escarcaga 9-14 (2 starts in the final sim).

California will lose less than 100 games!

Another goal complete! At worst I can go 69-93, at best 76-86.

California will finish in the top two in the Porter Division and win the Wild Card.

Fail... but I think the team showed some promise this year... hopefully we can contine to progress into next year.

[Clay]

OK... I'm stepping out on a limb for real....

The Virginia Colonials... a team who has had only one 100 RBI season in it's modern history (1979 for IL New Brew Danny Nelson)... however.... in 1984... the Virginia Colonials will have not 1... but two 100 RBI seasons!

Mark it down, Bitches!!!

No chance.

Wasn't "this the year" that Danny Nelson was supposed to hit 30 HRs and 100 RBIs?

I deserve at least partial credit. Danny Nelson has 25 HRs and 86 RBI with a week to go.... and Harcourt will win the IL HR Race and has already surpassed the 100 RBI mark.

Most of my other predictions stunk... although I was a pre-season believer in Dani Alvarez.

Everardo Gremades is finally going to win a DL Stout Slugger. Keppel can eat shit.

fail.

[Guest]

Not entirely. Keppel can still eat shit.

[Guest]

Howard Haydon will have 90+ RBI.

At least I was right on one prediction.

[rubisco43]

Not entirely. Keppel can still eat shit.

well, if that's what you call a "prediction"
