2012 MLB Season - Quarter Point

We are now a quarter of the way through the 2012 MLB season. At this point only 1 of the 10 teams (Texas) I picked to make the postseason would be in the playoffs. But as we all know, there is plenty of time for things to change. It is unlikely that Baltimore can continue this pace, and teams like Boston, Detroit, and the LA Angels have way too much talent not to turn it around. As well as the Phillies, who I picked to win the World Series. Philly's lineup has been decimated by injuries, but they still have the best starting rotation in baseball. Here is a look at how the season would shake out based on the preseason projections, current pace, and simulations of the remainder of the year.
