Own it Prediction for wins.

Stand up and guess the wins the Ms land with. Do a exact number. See how close you are.

Ms 90-72

 

[Crizilla]

Healthy 90
Not healthy 80

 

[NoGain]

Yeah, health is going to be the big concern for us. I mean, it's always a concern, but we have too many guys vulnerable to health issues on the team as it is.

So 90ish + or - wins sounds about right if we remain reasonably healthy, closer to .500 if not.

 

[sutz]

Hoping for health and saying 92-70.

 

[Shanegotyou11]

I thought more predictions as so many knowledgeable people in here.

 

[hawkfan68]

Since Dipoto said their goal is to win 54%, that equals about 88 wins over a 162 game schedule. I’ll go with 88-74.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

89-73. And they'll ALMOST make the playoffs, yet again.

That's the spirit!!!!

 

[ivotuk]

93 - 69

 

[CostaRicaHawk]

98-64

 

[bileever]

98-64

You have just won the award for Optimist of the Year!

 

[SoulfishHawk]

If they win 98 games, I'll be you not just a pint, but TWO pints

 

[Hawker]

91 wins. 2nd in the division. Wildcard berth.

 

[Chapow]

They're relying on not 1, not 2, but 3 guys with long and significant histories of missing a lot of time due to injuries to be major contributors this season. That's a helluva gamble and seems unlikely to work out very well for us, IMO.

82 or so wins seems about right to me because I very much doubt all 3 of Polanco, Haniger, and Garver will miraculously all stay healthy.

 

[Crizilla]

If DMo does what he's doing in spring training during the reg season....would be huge.... seriously this has gotta be his last chance

 

[Maulbert]

77-85. I literally can't believe in the Mariners.

 

[cymatica]

89-73. And they'll ALMOST make the playoffs, yet again.

That's the spirit!!!!

54.9% winning percentage. World Series here we come

 

[bileever]

I think the pitching is going to be solid this year, maybe even better than last year with another year under their belts for Woo and Miller. Not feeling great about the lineup, but I do like that we got rid of a lot of strikeouts and have a new hitting coach.

Mariners were 5th in the league in run differential last year, which is better than you would have thought. Could we do better than that this year? I'm just not sure we are going to be able to score any more runs than last year.

But I'm counting on them to have a minor improvement offensively, and that they will win 93 games as a result.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

I would love to be wrong. Just going to be very cautious in my optimism.

 

[bobsuncle]

78-84

Pitching will be solid when healthy. Bullpen is a concern. They did cut back on strikeouts, but too many key players just aren't that good. Other than JRod and Cal, they don't really have anyone in the lineup that has "star" written on the back of their baseball card.

 

[86Hawk]

83-79. Just don't see us scoring enough runs. We've had great starting rotations in the past with the same results. Hope I'm wrong.
