18-15 5 times more or less would get us to 88 wins. Might be enough.

Not only is Spring Training over the regular season is as good as over. This team is DOA! Let the Hunt For A Hundred Loses Begin!

I will stand by my prediction of 85 to 88 wins.

Can see them as an above .500 ( say 84-78) team, but that requires M&M boys staying healthy. I don't see anyone like Cuddy coming along and giving them a boost if Morneau goes down again, and Doumit is not a replacement for a healthy Mauer behind the plate. Hopefully Doumit can be a semi-regular "slow utility" ( C, 1B RF LF) player, and produce like he has durring his career. Still am anxious about who will be the RF, and would rather see Span there, with Revere in CF, just for the defense. Until I see some regular power from the RF position, we may as well use the commodity we have there-speed & defense.
