With spring training ramping up, teams across Major League Baseball are just about ready to start playing fake games. For the contenders, the idea will be to prepare to win as many real games as they can.
But how many real games will each contender win this season? We can't put too fine a point on it, but we can at least play around with the over/unders.
Las Vegas has yet to release over/unders for 2016 win totals, but Fox Sports tells us that the Atlantis Casino Resort Spa in Reno has. We'll take a look at the teams pegged for at least 80 or more wins and use projections from Baseball Prospectus and FanGraphs, as well as good, old-fashioned analysis, to decide whether the over or the under is more likely.
We'll begin with the contender projected for the fewest wins and end with the contender projected for the most wins. And because there are 21 teams to get to, it wouldn't hurt to pull up a comfy chair for this one.
