Apparently the Wadifo phase has already been completed.  Leaked pic from the lab below.

If everything goes okay and Wadifo's ears and jaw don't fall off by next week, they'll bring Velazquez in for the second phase.

I'd rather the storyline be about how the Angels finally found a sustainable winning recipe and defied the annually inaccurate ZIPS, versus the Angels perform as expected.

It'll make victory that much sweeter.

1.8% chance of winning the World Series??? They might as well give us the trophy now.

[Hubs]

These are garbage. 

They have three spots offensively that could go over 7 WAR.

Yes they have three spots that could be under 1 as well.

Their rotation will be better than this for sure. Bullpen too.

And they're not done.

I would love to hear one of them explain to me how a club that won 77 without Trout or Rendon still only wins 81?  only 4 games better?
And thats before any other changes?
Make that make sense...

ZiPS is fucking retarded.

I feel like there is some new stat acronym that shows up every year so I imagine some are completely useless

So, in these standings, shouldn't all teams be tied at 0-0?  I mean, if these are lockout-specific projections...

The idea is that when you account for Trout and Rendon being hurt, they think last year's team played over it's head.

This actually sounds reasonable

The projections are for the current roster. The roster with no SS, no catchers, and a number one starter coming off TJS.

So pretty much the same as last year?

Now hold on there. We had a Shortstop, one of the best in the game. 

We didn't have a 3rd baseman, 2nd baseman, left fielder, catcher, backup catcher, pitchers...

But F Yu we had Pujols!

If he's real, I look forward to all the ways his name is unintentionally misspelled.
