1. Admitting accepting never done this in a division at any level, Greg Bird hits over 30 Home Runs this season.
Talk about a boxy bolus to swallow, this was a abortion (especially through the aboriginal bisected of the season). I aboveboard captivated on to him in my alliance able-bodied into July afore auctioning him until he came aback in backward August hitting a admirable .253 over the additional bisected of the division with his K% bottomward from 30.6% to 20.4% hitting 8 home runs over those 29 amateur (which, extrapolated over a abounding division would accept put him over 30 home runs). I AM bullish on him to do able-bodied abutting season.
Verdict: Wrong, maybe due to that abiding bottom abrasion but absolutely wrong.
2. Jameson Taillon finishes in the top 3 in National Alliance Cy Adolescent votes.
At 160 IP he avalanche aloof abbreviate of best qualifiers to accurately analysis his relatability in this class adjoin his adolescent starting pitchers. He accomplished the division with 8 wins and 7 loses with an ERA of 4.44 and a WHIP of 1.48, hardly advancing with Clayton Kershaw, Max Scherzer and Stephen Strasburg, all who had sub 2.55 ERA’s, all had sub 1.05 WHIPs and all had 15 wins. Part of his constancy was batty as he underwent anaplasty for his testicular cancaer in May of the season, there is no abstinent his dust and action to assignment through a actual absolute mid-season scare.
Verdict: Wrong, partially injuries but still wrong.
3. Mark Trumbo hit 47 home runs aftermost year, arch all of MLB for the 2016 season. This year, he hits beneath than 25.
Mark accomplished with 23 home runs, I don’t assurance the bendability in him as a player. He hit beneath than HALF of his 2016 home runs admitting arena alone 13 beneath games. His career has apparent trends of this which is what makes 2018 arresting as I could see him eclipsing 30-35 home runs abutting year (maybe a pocketed adventurous anticipation for abutting year?).
Verdict: Correct.

4. Jose Peraza is in the top 3 in the alliance in steals this year.
Well it was a admirable division for Jose Peraza’s steals as he came up with 23, acceptable abundant for 17th in MLB; about he landed absolutely bisected way to 46, the cardinal that 3rd in the alliance - Trea Turner had with his 46 steals (Billy Hamilton was 2nd with 59 and Dee Gordon was aboriginal with 60).
Verdict: Wrong.
5. Jon Gray accomplished 19th aftermost year in absolute strikeouts with 185 K's beyond 168 innings pitched. This year he finishes in the top 5.
I knew the minute he went bottomward for over a ages with an abrasion in his bottom beforehand this year that this auspice was in trouble. He concluded up casting aloof 110 innings, he did column an absorbing 112 k’s over those innings. Had he been able to angle 200 innings at that pace, he would accept landed in the top 20 but accustomed his limitations he feel badly short.
Verdict: Wrong, injuries.
6. Mike Zunino finishes not alone aloft the Mendoza band but aloft .250 batting average.
This was candidly aggressive, but Mike, who led all catchers in strikeouts with 160, accomplished the division with an boilerplate of .251. For those bad at math, I’ll breach it down, he accomplished .01 aloft my prediction. This came bottomward to the wire and he acutely bigger his career band for batting average.
Verdict: Man do I feel acceptable about this one, I ability breach my arm patting myself on the back.

7. AJ Reed comes up to alter Yulieski Gurriel and gain to hit 20 home runs.
He did NOT appear up to alter Yulieski Gurriel who was absolutely accomplished and captivated his own during the year (batting 2.99 with 18 home runs and 75 RBIs). AJ Reed came up for aloof 2 amateur (6 absolute bowl appearances) and not alone had 0 Home Runs but 0 hits on the season. Instead some guy called Rhys Hoskins came up for the Philadelphia Phillies hitting 18 home runs and blanket all the “First Base Prospect” barrage accomplishing absolutely what I had been assured AJ Reed to do.
Verdict: Dead wrong.
8. The San Diego Padres denticulate 686 runs aftermost year, acceptable abundant for 20th in the league. This year, they are in the top 10 in Runs Scored.
I knew this was a bit too much, I abhorrence that by this point I acquainted I had not gone adventurous abundant with a aces and absitively to booty a adamantine appropriate about-face and booty the ‘bold prediction’ car appropriate into the alone timberline in a abandoned prairie abounding of accessible land. Honestly, what was I cerebration with this, of advance the Padres with all of their adolescent aptitude would not go the way argumentation would dictate. They didn’t accomplishment 20th, they accomplished 30th, REGRESSING by 82 runs scoring aloof 604 runs, abundant worse than aftermost year.
Verdict: As far amiss as one can be.
9. David Price. He accomplished 2016 with 17 wins, 3.99 ERA and a 1.20 WHIP. In 2017 -€” he finishes with 20 wins, 4.30 ERA and a 1.50 WHIP.
Those annoying injuries, David absolutely took a hit casting aloof 74 innings this year, the atomic of his career. Some bend ache landed him on the DL assorted times this year. He accomplished the division with aloof 6 wins, a 3.38 ERA and a 1.19 WHIP. I anticipate he chock-full afore the bend affair bedeviled him and the breadth of a division can booty their assessment on a pitchers numbers, due to the beneath division he was accustomed to accumulate his numbers low.

Verdict: Wrong, I’m blaming this on injuries.
10. The Arizona Diamondbacks casting agents had one bullpen with bifold chiffre wins aftermost year: Zach Greinke. This year they will accept 3.
The Diamondbacks were a affable abruptness to abounding this division activity from 69 wins aftermost year to 93 wins this year and now arena in the aboriginal annular of the playoffs in the NL adjoin the Los Angeles Dodgers. Not alone did Zach Greinke accomplishment with 17 wins, Robbie Ray with 15 wins and Patrick Corbin with 14 wins but they came abutting to two added with Taijuan Walker with 9 wins and Zack Godley with 8 wins.
Verdict: Correct.
Final account on Adventurous Predictions:
Correct – 3
Wrong due to Injuries – 3
Wrong – 5
I would accept admired to accept some of the “really wrongs” be afterpiece to true, but such is the way with Adventurous Predictions, I will attending to advance abutting year.
