Good thing it's called the Guessing Game

I closed my eyes and picked at random for about 80% of the list.

Cespedes is coming back to the Bay Area, guys.

What of Nick Punto?

Maybe add Byung-ho Park and Kenta Maeda to the list, I guess?

I did the thing. All the pitchers are BoSox and all the bats are Giants. More or less.

I am, as always, cursed to select the correct answers through the power of number crunching.

I used a random number generator. Apparently the Reds are rebuilding their rotation with Greinke and Zimmermann, and the Brewers are getting Heyward and Price.

I actually tried to make educated guesses this time instead of picking via gimmick like last year so i will probably do way worse

Half attempts at serious reasoning and half completely random guesses. Watch me completely tank on everything. Given that this isn't a bracket where we're limited to picking one result per team I feel like a more risk-averse strategy would be to pick 1-2 teams for each in need of infield, outfield and starting pitching and just load them all up. Yes, the Cubs will sign Price, Cueto and Grienke. Yes, the Giants will sign Heyward and Cespedes. Also yes, I picked St. Louis to sign Grienke and Heyward. In my perfect world the Cards re-sign Heyward, pick up Grienke and then deal Lance Lynn for prospects. Spend some of that money from the TV deal, Mo.

This is fun, I thought about looking up needs for each team and which teams are rebuilding so will avoid any FAs and then I realized the more research I do the more I will be wrong.

I don't like Kevlar's nightmare future where everyone stays where they are except the Cubs sign like six pitchers, plus Jason Heyward.
