Thread: Prediction Game: Your team's pitching rotation (RESULTS)?

Does anyone remember my prediction game I started at the beginning of the season? Well, here are everyone's predictions (who took part in the game):

I gotta say I was way off. Check to see if you answered this question, and see how well you did. If you didn't play then, check to see how wrong everyone else was. It's pretty interesting how preseason expectations differ so much from actual results.

Also, please star this question as well. I want this question to spread around Y!A, so everyone who played my game gets a chance to see how well they did.

BQ: Which teams do you think will advance to the NLCS/ALCS?

I answered this question under EMC when you asked it 8 months ago, but I got a new account.

I said that CC sabathia would have a record of 19-8- it was 21-7.
He did better, but I was kinda close ,, I also said his ERA would be 2.99, and it was 3.18.
For A.J Burnette, I predicted he would go 14-8, and he went 10-15. Not as good as I hoped.
His ERA was 5.26, and I guessed at around 3.70.
For Pettitte I guessed 16-11, he went 11-3. His ERA was 3.17, while I predicted 4.00.
For Javi I said he'd go 11-12 with an ERA of 4.99. This year he went 10-10 with an ERA of 5.32.
I was pretty close on that one, haha
And Finally for Joba I said he'd go 13-6 with an ERA of 4.09. He wasn't even really in the starting rotation this year, haha.

Wow, so glad you did those, it's fun looking back! Mine were definitely off, Dice-K Matsuzaka and John Lackey had worse seasons and while Josh Beckett was on the DL for a while so did he. Jon Lester and especially Clay Buchholz had better seasons than I predicted for them! Buchholz was a great surprise this year, never expected him to have the season he did.

BQ: I think Phillies and Giants in the NLCS and probably Rays and Yankees in the ALCS

Can I use ketchup while I am eating crow?
BQ: Giants over Braves, Phillies over Reds.

Twins over Yankees, Rays over Rangers.
