20 Mostly Ridiculous Predictions for the 2011 MLB Season
On February 16, 2011 I wrote this list of MLB season predictions and posted it at Fanshots.com. At the time I was pretty sure about 7 of them as being serious. Now I’m not even sure which 7 they were. But looking at the list I’d say I’m doing alright. Check it out and let me know what you think about my prognosticating skills!
This list is mostly ridiculous. I say that because there are 7 things on this list that I genuinely believe will happen this season. I’m not going to tell you which 7 things they are. But it’s the truth!
