Bold Predictions for the 2022 MLB Season
Who will come out on top?
Opening Day of the MLB season is like a religious holiday for me. The start of a marathon that will keep me company everyday until October. It gets me into a rhythm. The games are a constant presence, even when I’m not watching.
Yet it was only a few weeks ago that I was convinced that the commissioner and league would do everything in their power to kill it. But to my surprise, they presented collective bargaining terms that the players association found reasonable. Game on.
So now we can get to the good stuff. Our bold predictions for the season. Remember, we now have a new playoff format. Following that collective bargaining agreement, this year the playoffs were expanded from 10 to 12 teams (6 from each league).
With that in mind, below you will find bold predictions for the 2022 MLB season, including the final standings, division winners, wildcard winners, and of course, the World Series winner.
Buckle up.
