Thread 'Forum brother needs our help and support…'

Aug 23, 2025

Headlessdeadguy… he received some tragic news about his wife. She is in the battle of her life right now with cancer. It’s not looking good and it’s going to be a tough battle. Friends have organized a benefit show and get together for this wonderful woman Tannis. Not sure yet what we can do as far as donating or supporting them but for now if any mid-Atlantic homies can make it out..or anyone for that matter….here’s the details-

Mike is like a brother to me and I love he and Tannis even though we have never officially met. I think if nothing else give your prayers and ask...

The Kids' Real MLB 2025 Power Rankings...............









__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________



The Kids Real MLB 2025 Top 12 Power Rankings Update September 22nd, 2025.......




Based off Total Team WAR, Starting Pitching rotations projections and the WAR-Ratio as a baseline along with other factors and considerations for teams with most likelihood and highest likelihood of making postseason for 2025.......


My Rankings are more accurate and to a lower margin of error when it came to my Regular Season and Post Season Power Rankings in the 2023 season vs the "experts"......they actually reflected performance by teams better than MLB/ESPN/Verlander/The-Ringer.... as good as the "experts" in 2024 and I don't have a full department of people and "professionals" or "experts" like Ken Rosenthal running around a floor of 500 people and a nationwide network of hundreds if not thousands of reporters and journalist..........



It's just me, my WAR-Ratio method and other factors and considerations, basic stats available to everyone and a little bit of calculus along with my Ti-84+ calculator.......thats it......you heard it here first.......





Gaze into the crystal ball........






SEE THE FUTURE.......




1. Brewers



2. Phillies



3. Dodgers



4. Mariners



5. Blue Jays



6. Yankees



7. Cubs



8. Padres



9. Guardians



10. Red Sox



11. Astros



12. Reds

Vs the "experts" at MLB/ESPN/MLB on Fox.......

 

[The~Kid]

Currently beating the "experts" at MLB/ESPN/MLB on Fox at their own game........ and while they think they are matching me....... pretty much just copying and pasting my methodology based on the WAR-Ratio that I developed...... they may be using the same deck/hand as me but they don't know how to really use it or how to play the cards that I invented and developed to their full potential.........



________________________________________________________



7 out of 12 of my picks are postseason ready vs 6 out 12 of the "experts".......





58.33% of my preseason picks are postseason ready overall out of 12 vs 50% of the "experts" at MLB/ESPN/MLB on Fox/The-Ringer top 12 preseason picks and Power Rankings...... Also demolishing PECOTA and their preseason projections for the season....




I'm beating the "experts" and every "expert" on the planet in terms of Baseball on every level regarding my preseason Power Rankings vs the "experts"............ From MLB/ESPN/MLB on Fox/The-Ringer to PECOTA.


______________________________________________________




The Kids' Real MLB 2025 Power Rankings ....... Final top 12......... Will update as the season approaches or move the list around but in general once it gets going that doesn't happen unless something big changes......

[The~Kid]

Nvm MLB/ESPN/MLB on Fox/The-Ringer BS and noise ........ My projections and Real Power Rankings are also beating PECOTA top 12 teams actually making postseason......

 

[The~Kid]

Again......


MVF/Most Valuable Fan......

Alberto......


Simply asking to catch ball with Mike Trout and returning his historic career 400th HR to its rightful owner...... What a guy and what a moment..... This is a moment where the player is truly thankful for such a fan!!!!!



Here is to fans like Alberto and players like Trout....... And moments like this in Americas and the worlds greatest game ^_^

 

[The~Kid]

The playoff picture..... More teams in My Preseason Real Top 12 Power Rankings are actually making it to Postseason vs the "experts" PreSeason Power Rankings at MLb/ESPN/MLB on Fox/The- Ringer and even PRECOTA Preseason Power Rankings ^_^

 

[The~Kid]

This last stretch of the week is crazy....... Over the last 3 seasons doing this.....

I haven't seen a tighter race or as tight or close to this since 2023 and this is even more insane than that and my projections are still holding..... As they have held all season long and at this point they can only get better....



This is so exciting I pretty much already have my Postseason Real Power Rankings worked out an updating by the minute, hour, and day....... Pitch by pitch, play by play, inning by inning and game by day I will update them and drop them as soon as the season is over.



Cheers and to all the fans out there...... Truly cherish this last week and this season...... It really is incredible and Baseball is simply the best...... This truly is one crazy ass season and final week ^_^

I really think the Reds have the potential to be a dark horse if their bats wake up a little bit.

Yeah them and the Royals were teams I said should buy in trade deadline...... There is something there for sure and the energy Eli De La Cruz brings...... He's a real star...... Cincinnati gives him a lot of love and he gives it back with the team.


It's probably one of the best stories in Baseball if they make it and yeah not a team I projected but a real team to believe in...... Wish my Angels made it but short of that the Reds are a great story IMO and what a push at this point win or lose.

 

[The~Kid]

Mike Trout with his team giving thanks after his 400th career HR and getting a little emotional too...... Goes to show that even in Baseball sometimes you do cry and even the best cry...... And it's okay ^_^

Love my Reds. Elly has been down the last few weeks, but yeah, we love him here. He’s electric. I went to his cycle game last season, was probably the coolest experience.

Mike Trout is a national treasure.
