The Las Vegas Over/ Under for the Tribe regular season wins is 73.

I'll take the Under.

Starting rotation in September: Carmona, Carrasco, Masterson, White and Pomeranz. Tomlin despite a solid season moves to the bullpen.

September lineup? Too many lefties. We deal Hafner for prospects (??) and rotate others through DH

1. Brantley CF LH
2. ACabrera SS Switch
3. Choo RF LH
4. Santana C Switch
5. Sizemore LF LH
6. OCabrera 2B RH
7. Chisenhall 3B LH
8. LaPorta 1B RH
9. Kipnis 2B LH

Who would take on his salary?

I am supposed to expect my predictions will come true?

Who will take on his salary? We will have to pay 90% of it. But he'll be in demand because of his .900 OPS.

Besides, he'll be leading the league in batting average.

I'm 14 games late, but I figure .500 ball or so.

Masterson will be the next Cliff Lee. The kid has turned the corner, and he really gets "it".

78-84 Unfortunately. The team will score runs. On days when starters leave with a lead, the bullpen will usually hold on. But the starting pitching will be very poor.

By the end of the season the top 2 starters will be Carrasco and Bauer as Tribe rallies past the White Sox to finish in 3rd place. We will end September looking hopefully to 2014 anticipating Dolan will give his GM enough cash to sign a pitching equivalent of Swisher and Bourne to join with the two youngsters for a rotation to match the lineup next year.

So in sum, I guess I am saying, before Opening Day: Just wait until Next Year!
