Opening Day is less than a week away, and as the outlook for every team begins to crystalize it's time to the Westgate Las Vegas Superbook for its annual team win over/unders. After looking at projections from FanGraphs and Baseball Prospectus, I've pinpointed a handful of teams that are most likely to exceed or fall short of those figures -- teams that should provide value on the win total market.
Prediction: over 93.5 wins
FanGraphs projection: 96-66
Baseball Prospectus projection: 94-68
The Cubs won 97 games last season and proceeded to splurge in free agency to the tune of $284 million -- the most spent by any team in baseball.
