    2015 Pre-Season Win Predictions

    Interesting looking at the pre-season projections ahead of the 2015 season.

    I see one Las Vegas list of over-under for wins that had the Royals at 81 and the Astros at 76. And of course the gnats at 94 wins.

    Here's a link to BP's pre-season choices.

    So maybe JS isn't so crazy when he says we might compete in 2016 or 2017.

    Interesting how wrong they were on so many teams. Also how they were pretty close on some individual performances, yet way off on others. Love how the Nationals were so highly predicted for success, and yet fell quite short.

    Even professionals get sucked into who won the offseason and/or who spent the most money.

    It's very optimistic, but weirder things have happened. Lots of things would have to break right, but I could see it happening with our current roster if we have a few key breakouts and some of our guys return from injury in good form.

    People are so idiotic when it comes to the Nats and completely overvalues them.
