I humbly confess that Yuma was the winner every year from 2025 to 2027. We not only didn't predict any winners, we didn't get a single prediction right! That kind of perfection cannot be matched.

Interesting to see peeps jump at this before spring training! I'll wait, though I find some of these interesting, indeed!

Rosters are pretty much settled, save for a few relatively minor moves here and there. I think it's easy for everyone to see the Bears on the rise by now!

Normally there are a couple big injuries during ST which can alter the landscape....that's why I always hold off until the last minute.

And you can see how that strategy has paid off big for me, with that, um....one....victory, back in the 2019 season!

You should listen to the podcast! You might find last year's results interesting and relevant.

Would it be uncouth to update/edit the prediction after ST?

It would be and your time stamp would give away the "uncouthness"

Well fine then ! I stand by all my predictions

YUMA's impeccably researched 2029 predictions, determined after drinking a gallon of Colorado River Water:

Imperial League

Seaboard
1. Manchester
2. Arlington
3. Hartford
4. West Virginia (only because they traded so many star players to Yuma)

Dixie
1. San Antonio
2. New Orleans
3. Charleston
4. Florida
5. Kentucky

Trans Atlantic
1. Amsterdam
2. London
3. San Juan
4. Havana
5. Scottish

Sovereign League

Great Lakes
1. K'zoo
2. Duluth
3. Canton
4. Fargo
5. Crystal Lake

Desert Hills
1. Reno
2. Palm Springs
3. Yuma
4. Bakersfield
5. Aurora (because justice must balance the scales someday!)

Rising Sun
1. Toyama
2. Okinawa
3. Neo-Tokyo
4. Shin Seiki

Postseason

IL Wild Card Winner - Top 3 seeds get a bye
London over New Orleans in 3 games (with the New Orleans stadium flooded by a hurricane, the Trendsetters lose all their equipment and have to borrow a local Little League team's equipment and bus to drive to a high school stadium on higher ground to play their games)

SL Wild Card Winner - Top 3 seeds get a bye
Palm Springs over Yuma in 3 games (none of which are actually played, since Yuma forfeits all 3 games by failure to show up, the result of a major mixup in the front office involving the acting GM being fired, the manager imprisoned, and the owners absconding with the profits; the league tries to reach GM Mayberry in Camarillo State Hospital, but the patient's phone privileges have been suspended because of "inappropriate sexual behavior")

IL Division Series Winners - Top 3 seeds vs. Wild Card winner
San Antonio over Manchester in 5 games (the dry Texas heat causes Manchester's bats to crack)
Amsterdam over London in 7 games (the first all-Europe playoff series goes the distance!)

SL Division Series Winners - Top 3 seeds vs. Wild Card winner
Palm Springs over Toyama in 4 games (Denny's club gets stronger as the weather cools on the Sonoran Desert)
Reno over K'zoo in 5 games (the cold winds blowing down from Lake Tahoe into Reno chill the Badgers' bats)

League Championship Series Winners
IL: San Antonio over Amsterdam in 4 games (Amsterdam's team travel secretary books the club on flights to San Antonio, not realizing the Calzones actually play in Laredo, so the Lions forfeit the first game in Texas, then get lost trying to find a bus to drive them to Laredo, forfeiting another game)
SL: Palm Springs over Reno in 9 games (two games end in a tie! First game called after 18 innings because of a strict curfew enforced in Palm Springs, where the senior citizens insist everyone must be off the streets by the time reruns of Matlock begin; the third game of the series, the first in Reno, sets a new professional baseball record of 34 innings, tied 0-0, and ended only because neither team could field 9 players after the end of the 34th inning)

PEC Winner
San Antonio over an utterly exhausted Palm Springs in 4 games (Denny's players can hardly drag themselves onto the field; they manage just 5 hits in the 4 games, while their pitching staff record an embarrassing 5.67 ERA)

The Calzones celebrate their championship by providing the rest of the league with, what else, a meal of calzones!

Hooray! Bob's picked us over Scottish .. err ... umm ... wait ... doh!

The Maulers winning the division?!?! From your mouth to God’s ears, Bob!
