In seven months, we will know everything that happened in the 2016 season. If you're too impatient to wait, we'll tell you right now what we think will happen. Here are Baseball Prospectus' staff predictions, considered by many to be the gold standard in Baseball Prospectus staff predictions.

Individual awards votes are assigned on a 5-3-1 basis—five points for first place, one point for third. Below the vote totals are each of our 38 individual ballots. Otherwise, little in the way of introduction or caveat is needed. The unpredictability of baseball precedes us.

And here’s how those picks performed:

2005 - Boston - 95 wins, tied w/Yankees, 2nd place (WC)
2006 - Boston - 86 wins, 3rd place
2007 - New York - 94 wins, 2nd place (WC)
2008 - Boston - 95 wins, 2nd place (WC)
2009 - Boston - 95 wins, 2nd place (WC)
2010 - Boston - 89 wins, 3rd place
2011 - Boston - 90 wins, 3rd place
2012 - New York - 95 wins, 1st place
2013 - Tampa Bay - 92 wins, 2nd place (WC)
2014 - Red Sox - 71 wins, 5th place
2015 - Red Sox - 78 wins, 5th place

We’ve absolutely blown it the past two years, and we have not shied away from that. But I don’t think you’re going to get us to feel terribly guilty about the five instances in which we incorrectly picked a division winner that made the Wild Card anyway. I get that this is your favorite thing to do and I remember when you posted this last year. Like Sam said, it looks like we’ve learned. But maybe chill on trying to make us look like idiots for liking a Red Sox team that averaged 92 wins from 2005-2011.

The AL East is incredibly tough to forecast for this year, I haven't looked at BP playoff odds but I think the projections are too high on TB, and 4 teams have a 15+% chance of winning the division
tearecrules
4/04
I find it interesting that no one picked the Astros to win the WS. In the staff predictions they make the playoffs more than everyone but the Cubs (all but two staffers have them as the division or WC), and it's not like they're a "lock" because the AL West is a pit of despair.
mshopoff
4/04
I was going to comment on this as well - and I think if you look at the Cy Young ballots, you get an idea why. Only 4 votes (zero first) for the defending Cy winner? Looks like they're expecting some level of pitching regression that will hurt in the playoffs.
tearecrules
4/04
But then 5 staffers have the Rangers winning the WS (seriously, the Rangers are the BP staff's second most likely WS winner?) and only 2 with the Dodgers? It looks to me a lot more like they're buying into a whole lot of hype on a very good Cubs team. And apparently that Cubs domination extends to the rest of the NL. Out of, what, 38 writers 29 of them are picking a NL team for the WS?

It looks like every NL team, except the D-Backs and marlins, predicted by a staffer to make the playoffs also wins the WS, but quite a few AL teams thought to be playoff bound (Houston, KC, Detroit, the White Sox, Rays, Yankees, and Mariners) are not. I'd love to see the writers pick who their AL and NL champions would have been because there is an awful lot of faith being put in Arrieta, Baumgartner, Kershaw, and Harvey that is not being put into Keuchel, Sale, or Archer.

I'd love to see the AL and NL champs for each writer form their predicted slate of teams.

I had Mets/Rangers in my WS.
TheArtfulDodger

That said, I think you're winnowing this down to one starting pitcher for no real reason?

Mets have Syndergaard, DeGrom, Matz and maybe Wheeler behind Harvey.

Bumgarner has Cueto behind him, and a pretty solid lineup (assuming healthy)

Kershaw, well...the dodgers are kind of a mess, but incredible deep even if that depth is being tested. I'd argue it's more about lineup with them than pitching.

Arrieta has Lester and Lackey behind him plus an incredibly deep lineup.

Sale has the best argument of the guys you mention because Quintana and Rodon are really solid rotation-mates and that's a much improved lineup overall. Still, there's little depth if something goes wrong in the rotation or the lineup.

The Rays offense has been anemic and it's unclear if the recent additions (Dickerson, Morrison, etc) are enough of an improvement.

Keuchel is great, but the rotation behind him right now isn't especially appetizing with McCullers on the mend. The lineup is good, and they should be competitive, but I think overall you're making a lot of assumed statements based on consensus data that comes down to a lot of individual preferences/cascading effects of how each person thinks the divisions/playoff teams actually shake out.
tearecrules
4/04
I wino we'd it down to a pitcher because I was responding to another commenter who suggested it. Is a rotation with Keuchel/McHugh and the Astros projected line-up really that much worse than Baumgartner and Cueto and the Giants?

Honestly, I don't actually care that much, it was just something I thought was kind of weird that one of the teams projected to be one of the better teams in the AL was not predicted by almost 40 experts to win.

The Twins will have a tough tightrope to walk, what with having the top three ROY candidates (and four of the top ten), and still having to finish last in the division.
BenC22
4/04
Well, part of the reason we think they'll have so many ROY candidates is the rest of the team isn't very good, opening up opportunities for young players.
Deadheadbrewer
4/04
Tough crowd today (-1)! :)

I hear ya', Ben--I live in MN, and don't think the Twins are all that good, but it would be interesting to see how teams did, record-wise if they had the top two ROY players. And even more interesting to see if any team has ever had the top three ROY players, and then how that team performed.

My first comment was just pondering the balance between having many good rookies and still finishing poorly. I could see it when the team was a 100-loss disaster without the rookies, but the Twins could probably easily finish .500 if those three rookies performed well. I'm banking all my Opening Day optimism on it!
