Baseball Prospectus 2009 Projections

Red Sox: 98 wins.
Yankees: AL Wild Card.
Rays: NOT in playoffs with 92 wins.
Indians win the AL Central; A's win AL West.
Mets, Cubs, D'backs and a WC tie in NL.
See the sage analysis here.

(Remember: It was in these projections a year ago that Nate Silver correctly predicted the rise o the Rays and kicked off what would become the Year of Silver, across sports and politics.)

"Indians win the AL East"

That is quite the bold prediction.

Typo here, methinks..."Indians win AL East"? I think you mean Sox, or AL Central, one or the other.

So Sox 1, Yanks 2, Rays on the outside looking in? I like that...

Just curious: does the projection include Ramirez with any team? I don't subscribe so I can't tell.
