PECOTA projections released, forecast National League-best 97 wins for Brewers

Every February, Baseball Prospectus releases their annual PECOTA projections. On February 18, they unveiled their projected standings for each division in Major League Baseball.

This time around, the projections come with added caveats. The forecasted records for each team are for a 162-game season, but due to the ongoing lockout, there is no guarantee that a full season will be played. Furthermore, the league-wide transaction freeze has prevented many teams from making finishing touches to their roster. The rosters which PECOTA is working off of could look dramatically different on Opening Day. Baseball Prospectus plans to make updates shortly before the season actually gets underway, and those predictions could look a bit different.
