We’re roughly about 10% of the way through the 2012 regular season, which is a pretty small sample size to make sweeping observations about how good or bad teams are. That doesn’t mean that what’s happened to this point isn’t important, because it is. I wanted to see what teams have seen the biggest shifts in their outlooks based on how they projected coming into the year compared what they have done since.

I think unless the Cardinals continue to get a bunch of injuries the division championship is a lock. The Reds and Brewers are nothing special and they're the next best teams in the division, if either of them wins more then 86-87 games I'll be shocked. The Pirates are a below average team while the Cubs and Astros are 2 of the worst teams in baseball.

That looks about right. I can see the Pirates getting to 80 wins and I have no clue with the Reds and their bullpen.

I could also see the Pirates getting to 81 wins. They're not an awful team. The Reds and the Brewers will make a run. We'll have a rough month. I like these new odds and I like that we have a cushion early, but I still think this will be pretty tight.

That might be the worst blog/website design I've ever seen.

That site has the Red Sox still finishing at 83-79. I know the team is potentially better then they've been playing so far but with all the bad things going on with that team to still predict them to finish over .500 screams of east coast bias. They'll need Crawford and Ellsbury back sooner then expected and to both play at All Star calibre to save their season.

I'm guessing that these projections assume that both Wainwright and Carpenter will produce above league average sometime during this season?

Anyone know where I can order a cheap but high quality Red Sox jersey that is small enough for a spreadsheet or a formula to wear?

It's great to win games in April, but I think it's generally meaningless unless injuries occur. I think we all knew this team would hit. Hopefully that continues.
