Happy New Years, Braves?

Happy New Years guys! Hope everyone had a wonderful time! I sure didn't. One of my resolutions is to start posting more often for you people out there that aren't actually there. Today, I am starting up the prediction series. I have already reviewed the Diamondbacks and today we get to look at the Atlanta Braves.

First off, the Atlanta Braves finished 3rd in their division going under .500. However, they did start off strong and did well for the first part of the season. This season the Braves traded Jayson Heyward who was arguably their best player. He had lots of power when on offense and an outstanding outfielder. Did this one decision ruin their team?

I think it did not, but it will be tough for them to go anywhere in their division. However, the Braves have made positive trades this year. They have acquired Alberto Callapso for one year. With Alberto I think this year they can use him to their advantage and do well. Also, the Braves have good pitching and if they can continue to have good defense and pitching they have a chance.

I think in the 2015 season, the Braves will either win their division or come in second. I think they will make it close and be a competitive team. Will they win the World Series? I don't think so, but you never know. The Braves continue to surprise and they may do well in the post season.

But for me, I think that they will make the playoffs but lose in the first round. Sorry Braves fans, 2015 is not the year!

Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas

Today is Christmas! It has been a great break for me and I have been getting lots of skiing in this break. Today I was given new skis from the old jolly man. I got to take my new skis out for some runs and it was great! The Holidays always seem to be a great time of year.

I may not post for a couple of days because I am going camping in the Uintah mountains and will not have service to post. I am posting this now to talk about the Holidays. In my last post I asked if anyone was doing anything for the Holidays. For anyone reading this, maybe you could comment if you are going to be doing anything or if you have done something you want to talk about. I will respond no matter what.

I will not be analyzing a team today, but I will talk about what I am going to be doing a little more in depth. So, I have already analyzed and predicted the Arizona Diamondbacks and will continue to talk about teams. I was wondering if you guys would like to see it by division or alphabetically. I have started alphabetically, but I can very much switch over.

Doing it by division would make it easier for you guys to understand because I would create a bracket type prediction. As in I would tell what place each team would place in their division. It would be more organized. However, I could also do it alphabetically if that's what you guys would like to see. Let me know what would be better! Hope you guys have a good Holiday season!
