I beat the "experts".......


At MLB/ESPN/MLB on Fox/The-Ringer 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"....... And actually made Postseason and October Baseball.





58.333% of my preseason picks mase Postseason and October Baseball 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 demolished PECOTA and their preseason projections for the season which only got 5 out of top 12 picks right at 41.666% vs my 7 out of top 12 picks at 58.333%......





I beat the "experts" in 162 games of the season......






At MLB/ESPN/MLB on Fox/The-Ringer to PECOTA this season on every level *_*

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 Kids Real MLB 2025 Top 12 Power Rankings Update March 14th 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. Dodgers




2. Phillies





3. Astros




4. Mets




5. Braves




6. Red Sox




7. Mariners

So happy for the Blue Jays....... Congratulations and no one really saw them making it to Postseason other than me and my projections..... What a team and amazing group of players *_*



 
What a game! Right down to the wire! Blue Jays all the way!
Shit was absolutely wild....... For me it was either the Blue Jays or the Mariners making it to the World Series and an AL team winning it all in Postseason.

I mean these guys just have the bats..... Pitching wins Championships yes but you can't win if you don't hit and the Blue Jays bring elite hitting. It's going to be tough going up against the Dodgers but I feel the Blue Jays can give them hell and take it.


I did rank the Mariners higher but I ranked the Blue Jays higher than the "experts" did and #2 overall even above the Dodgers as IMO the Blue Jays are just a more balanced team. It's really a coin flip at this point as all these teams are elite but yeah I believe the Blue Jays have an edge in the coming World Series especially with HomeField Advantage at Rogers Stadium.


It's going to be one hell of a World Series in 2025 and both these teams are going to bring world class Baseball win or lose.

Reasons I believed an AL team will win the WS this year is that IMO the AL was just more competitive...... You only had one batter hit above .300 AVG in the NL really with Trea Turner and in general for me that means that the NL pitching staff didn't really face much competition relative to AL pitching staff......



IMO the AL has just been more competitive and the Blue Jays came from one of the most competitive divisions in the AL East and in the AL in general vs the Dodgers in the NL West and the NL in general......



It's anyones game really but IMO the Blue Jays have the edge :dunno:

The Blue Jays take the edge with HomeField Advantage in the 2025 World Series...... 2 at Toronto.... 3 in Los Angeles and 2 back in Toronto if there needs to be a game 6 or 7.......


This is where the regular season record makes a difference and HomeField Advantage is a real edge for the Blue Jays and Toronto starting off the 2025 World Series at Rogers Centre in Toronto Canada...... It's not everything but it's an undeniable edge.

Props to the Mariners making it this far....... Not many thought they could or would....... Here is to the 2025 Mariners......


 
When it comes to the quality of teams the Dodgers had to face in the NL compared to what the Blue Jays had to face in the AL..... Nvm respective divisions......


Dodgers have had to play against JV teams for the most part aside from the Phillies all season long and in Postseason...... In a league where the NLs batting average is below league wide average relative to the ALs batting average...... Pitchers and teams in the NL haven't really been all that competitive or faced real competition within their own league let alone division....


The AL this season contrary to popular belief has just been more competitive in regards to batting and pitchers having to face real bats relative to the NL bats..... Races in the AL were so competitive that multiple teams just depended on the tie breaker to clinch a postseason spot or clinch their division for example till the end pretty much.


iMO the pitching and hitting in the AL relative to the NL was just better this season and being a product of a more competitive league and their environment in the AL I believe that gives the Blue Jays an edge as well aside from HomeField Advantage to start of Game 1 and Game 2 of the 2025 World Series :dunno:

This game brings joy...... And it brings heartbreak and that's just the way the game is and life is...... You just gotta roll with the punches...... And make the most out of it either way......


 
OMG...... And after all this Pujols and Torri Hunter talk..... Don Mattingly too...... Arte Moreno does the impossible and gives the Angels and fans in Anaheim another loss..... Even when the team isn't even playing actual games and the next season hasn't even begun....... A complete fucking MLB McDonalds team:dunno:


No one will really take the job and since it would be even weirder to have Trout be Team-Manager/DH/OF.........

This move to get Suzuki won't improve the club and it's just cutting corners and cheating out...... And doing more of the same shit that has led to 10+ years of failure, losing seasons and not making Postseason for the Angels...... You out shit in..... You get shit out and the Angels organization is simply a shithouse and shit show and in the business of producing shit it seems for 10+ years now :dunno:



John Carpino President of The Angels should resign or Arte should just fire him outright at this point he's the one in charge of 10+ years of failure in Anaheim and he just keeps doing more of the same or essentially bringing nothing conducive to a winning culture in Anaheim........ John Carpino has done nothing else but run this organization and the Angels to the ground doing nothing over 10+ years.


While other organizations actually have real President of Baseball Operations that actually produce winning teams and teams going to Postseason John Carpino simply uses the Angels as a piggy bank for his own self serving interest while the team and city lose year after year after year......


Arte should just fire his ass or if Carpino has any dignity he should resign.
