Braves still have enough pitching. Hard to see them behind the mets but I do like and respect we are making BOLD predictions!

[Dr. Awesome]

Red Sox finish 4th in the AL East.Bumgarner is the best pitcher for the Giants this season.Oakland A's finish above .500

Red Sox came in 5th. I thought they'd be a disaster but I couldn't imagine it would be a mess of this magnitude.Oakland won the division and won 94 games. Bumgarner pitched only 11 innings fewer than Cain and they tied in wins. But Cain had 5 losses to Bumgarner's 11 and Cain also had a much lower era at 2.79 vs. 3.39
