Five Bold Predictions for the 2021 MLB Season
#5: No NL Central Team Wins More Than 85 Games
The NL Central is projected to be the worst division in baseball, which considering they were the first team to ever have four teams make the playoffs due to the expanded format in 2020, is somewhat surprising. However, the Cubs lost star pitcher Yu Darvish in the offseason, none of the Cardinals, Brewers, or Reds were more than one game above .500 and the Pirates will be pleased if they lose less than 100 games. This could be the most competitive division in the MLB, as everyone other than the Pirates will be in with a shot to win the division.
