2015 Giants Prediction Thread

[LHG]

I cant stand 100% pessimism and I cant stand 100% optimism. You cant have any discussions with that. BoB is almost as bad as NN, IMHO.

I don't know all that BoB posted but I wonder if you all were too hard on him. I appreciate that unbridled enthusiasm, even if its misguided at times. However, it can be aggravating for someone not to engage the dialogue on the board.

I predict that there is no prediction. Ride the wind and explore the window of greatness. Magical fucking exploration of the universe..I will continue to throw positive vibes into the milky way. Let a black hole swallow it up..and burp up another Championship. I am hoping for the first repeat WS Champion to come out of the NL since 1975. It's a tall order..but I believe ..and to believe is a magical amazing thing. I am going to ride this ride until the carnival rider stops the ride and tells me to get off and go home.

Go Giants !!

Maybe I spoke too soon. This one is just weird.

If I were able to put him on ignore, I would have been OK with him. But he just made GDTs more of a chore than a relaxing good time.

The GDTs were just about dead here this season, until he was out of town (or something - he was away from the board for a few days, regardless) and the GDTs exploded. That was when I pretty much decided that I was done with him.

Then you and Filo came back, and the GDTs actually touched the levels of where they were back in the disney years and the first few years here.

I was pretty close on the record.

I was almost perfect on our place and games back.

MVP and surprise I missed.

Disappointing was wrong, but could be defended given that there is an outside chance that Panik's career may effectively be over due to the back (my words, not based on anything I have seen or heard).

Rookie, I did not name Duffy or Heston or Tomlinson, but naming Parker, I will take a pat on the back for.

Overall, my predictions were quite... sorry

We drank too much Belt juice

Am I too late to participate?

Predictions
Record: 85-77
Position in West: Second (7 GB of LAD)
Team MVP: Buster Posey
Biggest Surprise: The Giants offense will be one of the top in the league, despite Hunter Pence being down
Most Disappointing: Casey McGeehee/the Starting pitching, but I don't have high expectations outside of Bum
Biggest Rookie Impact: Duffy will make a run at ROTY, but I have a hunch Tomlinson will make an impact
Biggest In-Season Trade: Total shot in the dark here, we'll trade for Mike Leake, but it wont workout
How many games does Pagan play? 130, but the better question is, how many games will Pence, Panik, Peavy, Aoki, Belt...
