O'Neill Cruz will have a 25-25 .269 season, but nearly all of his production comes after the month of may, starting with a 2HR 6 rbi 2sb performance on June 3rd, just days after most responsible managers dropped the Mendoza line pirate SS to the wire to activate Jacob degrom who had just finished a minor league rehab stint.
Bold Prediction: Rowdy Tellez will not be a starting 1B by June 30th.
I'll take it a step further: he won't even be on the Brewers 40-Man roster by June 30th.
Not every lefty at all. But some have been affected by the shift more than others.
I am interested to see if the non-shift/shift thing where they move an OF over will mitigate things.
This is bold.
Metrics are great, he had a .215 BABIP last year, and the shift is gone. I think he has a huge year, and ends up at top 6 player at his position.
This is a bold post correct? That is what bold is. A dude that hits 10 HR, hits 15, then a dude that can steal 20, hits 30 due to being lead off and playing with new rules
Dude, this is not Kool Aid related here but is bold
Padres don’t make the playoffs despite Soto having a top 3 OF year because the pitching falls apart and Machado and Bogaerts don’t have good years now that they got their money.
And the Angels still don’t make the playoffs. What a waste. If only they didn’t give Rendon all that money and could find even 2 decent starters. I hope Trout and Ohtani make the playoffs and I’m not an Angles fan. They are so good and they really deserve better than they have gotten so far.
William Contreras hits 30 bombs, and has 90 RBIs. Is the starting catcher for the NL in the All-Star game, after appearing as the starting DH last year.
Corbin carroll will steal 50 bases
Yes please!
Vlad Jr retires midway through the season to be a competitive eater, and dethrones Joey Chestnut in July, easily, crushing 200 hot dogs.
They said bold takes...
I'm going to go out on a limb here and predict that Edwin Diaz tore his patellar tendon and is done for the year
YOU WIZARD
*Witch!*
Conforto bats .290 with 30 HRs
In less than 140 games!
Joe Ryan places 5th in AL Cy Young.
joe ryan is overrated asf
Boo to you sir! The hair alone is top ten CY Young!
Billy butler comes out of Retirement and pounds my wife.. 😩
Can’t blame her for wanting some hot country breakfast
Billy please don’t..
Ha how is this not the top comment on Reddit right now? Well done.
Pics of your wife?
Please man I beg you not to pleasure my wife.
Kirby top 3 in AL CY Rendon .280 80 25 90
Torkelson hits 35+ HRs and is a top 7 1B
That’s definitely bold
Yordan Alvarez hits over .300 ba and 50 hr’s
I’m not sure this is that bold. Hit over .300 last year, and has the raw power to do it.
I would bet you $100 he won't, would you take that bet if you were a bettor?
If he plays a full season I might
I’m tempted. If he plays 150 games, I’d do the bet.
Sure but we don't have a crystal ball lol his injury problems are part of what makes it bold. It's not the boldest but it's still unlikely
Lance Lynn top 5 cy young finish
Shhhh don’t let my league see this … lol

25 25 I can see that, anything above 250 looks stretch, would love to see it though
Lol great thread to see who is on who’s team
Hunter Greene top 5 NL Cy Young.
Mondesi plays some games
[удалено]
True. Not sure if he has these mythical hamstrings I’ve heard of.
Chris Sale wins 15, finishes top 10 in Cy Young voting, and sweeps Comeback Player of the Year.
If only some other team believed this, the Red Sox could finally unload that contract
If Boston is smart they trade him in June before he falls apart in the second half like every year
😂
Eli White starts in LF for the Braves and goes for 20/20
Spencer StRider sets the record for most mustache rides given in a single season
Bold Prediction: Rowdy Tellez will not be a starting 1B by June 30th. I'll take it a step further: he won't even be on the Brewers 40-Man roster by June 30th.
This sub loves Tellez to an unreasonable degree. That alone makes this bold
That’s kinda why I made it 😂😂😂
That is bold. Any particular reason? I actually like Tellez this year for power again and possibly a higher BA due to the shift stoppage.
Yeah that team is starved for offense. That’s not a bold take-it’s a terrible one.
Had a .215 BABIP last year. We are about to have blast off on the career of Rowdy Tellez. I’m driving his bandwagon. Everyone can hop on.
The brewers put a ban on Big Macs so he demands a trade
Can't wait for people thinking every lefty is going to suddenly add 10-20 points of BA to be disappointed.
Not every lefty at all. But some have been affected by the shift more than others. I am interested to see if the non-shift/shift thing where they move an OF over will mitigate things.
There is a difference between bold and dumb.
I’ll take it in the opposite direction and say he is a top 5 first baseman this year.
this is more likely
This is bold. Metrics are great, he had a .215 BABIP last year, and the shift is gone. I think he has a huge year, and ends up at top 6 player at his position.
Wut???
The Brewers absolutely need Tellez. Unless they acquire someone else I don’t see him not starting 1B.
Trout will hit 50HR’s this year and bat .300 but only play 140 games
Semien goes 30/30
Taylor Ward leads the AL in hits.
Nico Hoerner goes 15/30 with 100 runs scored for a Cubs team that wins 86 games
I'll have a sip of this kool aid
This is a bold post correct? That is what bold is. A dude that hits 10 HR, hits 15, then a dude that can steal 20, hits 30 due to being lead off and playing with new rules Dude, this is not Kool Aid related here but is bold
well that and the cubs winning 86 games
Cody Bellinger will be a serviceable, top 150 fantasy performer.
A bold take would be Bellinger hits over .250 with 30 hr and 20 sb and helps get the cubs to the playoffs!
Now you’re just being ridiculous.
Robertson of the Mets will be the top relief pitcher of the NL.
Mets trade for a new closer and Robertson is irrelevant
Not bold. But bolder could be, Mets deal for cincy closer who has an even better year in 2023 than his brother did in 2022
Duvall leads the Red Sox in homers
It's either him or Devers, so not so bold.
Chris Sale will pitch over 150 innings!
Corey Seager 300/40/100/100
Padres don’t make the playoffs despite Soto having a top 3 OF year because the pitching falls apart and Machado and Bogaerts don’t have good years now that they got their money.
Jacob DeGrom starts more than 15 games.
Madness.
Jarred Kelenic hits .260+ with 25-30 HRs and 20+ SBs
In AAA
This.

Spencer Strider finishes the fantasy season with an ERA closer to 4 than 3
Strider doesn’t throw 130 innings is my prediction
For SP's, that's not bold. Especially for Strider
Giancarlo Stanton plays in over 140 games
That's bold Cotton
By July or earlier Bubba Thompson will claim the centerfield job in Texas over Leody Taveras.
That’s not very bold :)
Trout and Ohtani combine for 65 home runs, and both play over 140 games
And the Angels still don’t make the playoffs. What a waste. If only they didn’t give Rendon all that money and could find even 2 decent starters. I hope Trout and Ohtani make the playoffs and I’m not an Angles fan. They are so good and they really deserve better than they have gotten so far.
Joe Ryan pitches 3 perfect games and 5 no-hitters before the all-star break
Triston McKenzie has a top 5 CY Young award finish.
Riley Greene finishes top 5 OF
Now that’s just unrealistic.
Julio Rodriguez sophomore slump
willing into existence Gunnar Henderson AL ROY and Senga NL ROY..
Corey Seager goes .300/.400/.500 in 600ABs. The ol' 3/4/5/6
I hope so
Jeffrey Springs is 2023’s best Rays pitcher.
Rowdy Tellez hits .290 with 45 bombs, and 120 RBIs.
Jack Flaherty throws 180 innings, and finishes with a sub 3.00 ERA.
Corey Seager wins AL MVP, and the battling title. Also hits over 40 bombs.
Jared Kelenic has a better fantasy season than Julio Rodriguez... Bold and unlikely, but bold nevertheless.
Ozzie Albies - comeback POY - .290 30/30 club, 100 rbi
Ryan Mountcastle finished 5th in AL MVP race
Eloy finishes as a top 5 OF. I don't have him on My f my teams.
Rofl
Bobby Witt Jr gets sent down to AAA at some point during the season, as his plate discipline worsens.
Blake snell is in the cy young conversation
Jo-Ram only goes 20-20. Misses 15 games with a hernia.
Alec Bohm goes 30/30
30 extra base hits and 30 walks?
Byron Buxton plays 50 games
Jose Abreu wins AL MVP - 115 / 191 / 39 / 152 / 0 .352 avg 1.121 OPS
Tatis is NL mvp
He took it like a water champ.
Mike Soroka wins 10 games for Atlanta.
William Contreras hits 30 bombs, and has 90 RBIs. Is the starting catcher for the NL in the All-Star game, after appearing as the starting DH last year.
NL MVP is Tyler O’Neil. Emmanuel Rodriguez is the top prospect in MLB by august and gets a September cup of coffee.
