2019 Bold Predictions thread

[TheHurl]

Gurriel leads the offense in fWAR - Damn close

Vlad Jr has 3 IR visits - Fanbase blames the Front Office. Comes back from the 3rd Visit down 20 pounds in the Best Shape of his life. Fanbase blames the Front Office for not forcing it sooner. - Just one visit. and is in the best shape of his life in November

Stroman starts the All Star game, gets injured at the game - fan base blames the Front Office wrong but Stroman does blame the FO for a lot

Elvis does not leave the team - Fanbase blames the front office every time he gets blown up #clearlynotready kind of happened just not enough cared

Jays trade 5 outfielders in 2019 - Fanbase loses it on the Front Office they don't have 5 OF's that teams would take in trade

There is a major issues in the dome forcing the Jays to play a series in Buffalo instead Buffalo came to the Dome to play

Anthony Alford has multiple on-field altercations with teammates actually appears to be one of the more loved players

 

Rest of the League

 

Franmil Reyes leads the league in HR's mid-season He was 9th

Josh Donaldson hits 6 HR's in the first 10 games before injuring his hammy - Blames the Jays front office. Injury free season I was wrong

The NL has 12 teams within 3 games of .500 on August 1st. they had 12 teams within 8 games of .500

Yelich is not in the top 40 OF'ers despite the injury he was 2nd...bad fail

One of the AL Power Four ends up 10 games under .500 - red Sox squeaked in with 84 wins

Soto has a sub 110 wRC+ (originally I wrote 100 but changed my mind) - yeah not close

San Diego competes for a wildcard. Nope still sucked

First firing of the season is Clint Hurdle - I think he actually was

Rays start 3 -12 again. - Not even close

Corey Seager wins NL MVP - won't get a vote, but had 540 PA's. I still believe he's got a huge season in him

Josh Hader becomes the first reliever to hit 4.0 fWAR since Gagne. - Hader was a disappointing 2.3. Hendricks just missed getting to the 4.0

Matt Boyd receives several Cy Young votes - this one looked good for about 2 months

MLB has it's second ever k-rate higher than 40% with at least 200 PA's - 6 over 35% and Keon Broxton getting to 45.6%
