We enjoy Scoresheet baseball, but we’re not monsters. In this episode, we take a break from the post-draft grind to talk about real baseball teams for a long time. We preview the season ahead, as two of the Outcomes make predictions for the season, pushing each other off the Vegas line “Name-that-tune” style until we’ve sewn dissen for every team in the league.
As a parting gift, the third Outcome is adding one under-owned prospect worth tracking for each team. For some, a strong start in 2016 may plant them firmly on the Scoresheet supplemental draft radar, and for others, this may be a final chance to remain fantasy-relevant in this format. Want to know which is which? Listen to the episode, or check in with the comments below.
The teams are listed in the order they are discussed during the podcast; from worst-to-first according to Vegas in each league. No PECOTA projections were harmed in the making of this discussion.
