    Nope

    I'd argue the Braves, but they have played a tough schedule (Nats, Cards, Dodgers and Mets) and have better offensive production and a better run differential. The Reds are bottom 5 in almost every metric. Their bullpen and offense are especially woeful.
  • Azubuike24
    22nd in OPS, 28th in ERA, 28th in OOPS and last in run differential. The offense isn't the worst, but over 30% of their runs for the year have been scored in 2 games, and given how this offense performed in consistency as a team in categories like hitting with RISP, BABIP and other stats the last few years, I wouldn't think these things will continue to be inflated.

    Not buying it. They aren't the worst. They just aren't. We'll see how it goes.
  • SportsAndLady
    They're not going to have the worst record. Just stop buike.

    Vegas they're like 10th from last to win it all. I'll take that over these "predictors" of yours.

    Wrong. Updated right now.

    Phillies 50K:1
    Braves 50K:1
    Padres, Brewers and Reds 15K:1

    And I conceded, the Braves are probably worse.

    Brewers will win 75+, even in the brutal central. 57 games vs Cubs/Cardinals/Pirates

    I'll predict top 4 worst, and that's what we should root for. Again, I never said they were the worst, but the numbers put them close. Braves are worse. Padres are probably worse. Phillies and Brewers, we'll see. It may come down how well those head to head games go.

    Anyone thinking this is a legit .500 team, well LOL. They are playing over their heads and it isn't sustainable.

  • Azubuike24
    You think they are? 81 wins? That's a bold prediction.

    They just beat, arguably, the best team in baseball 13-5.

    Give it a rest.

    It's a discussion about the whole season. We don't have a thread for that. It's a legit question. How many do people think the Reds win?

    Can we please get Simon off the team?
  • Terry_Tate
    I don't understand why Simon is getting any starts over Stephenson.
