For some reason I decided it would be a fun (but extremely time consuming!) exercise to go through every MLB team, study their roster, and make semi-educated predictions on how the players will perform during the 2011 season. I have completed a large portion of this task and I am proud to release my predictions to you in groups based on each division. The first group will be the American League East. I hope you enjoy this installment, and I look forward to the next group. Until then... I give you the AL EAST.

I'll just comment on the team I know best: my gut tells me Snider is going to have a bigger breakout than that and hit 25+ homeruns with a higher average. I also see Bautista being a bit closer to last years numbers (40+ hr and 100+ rbi) and Lind will be closer to his 2009 numbers. I definitely think they're pretty good predictions though.

I do, however, think the pitcher projections are quite a bit off. It's probably just because I obviously think the Jays are better than you do, but I think the win/loss totals will look a lot better than that.

Thanks for the comment. I think it is definitely possible for each of those players to do what you predict, I just think it is more likely that they will progress towards their average. That's why it is an average after all. And as for the pitching, I think the main difference in our opinion is just as you stated. I see the Blue Jays as a 4th or 5th place team in the east, but if they win more then I predict then those W/L totals will obviously reflect that.
