My 2013 MLB predictions

Baseball – quite possibly the greatest thing invented by humanity.

It’s that time of year. Lush green grass, clay-red warning track and infield, pristine white bases, sizzling hot dogs, icy slushies, the crack of wood. Baseball season.

And today’s opening day. Leyfishafi, there’s only one game today, but it counts. (Most teamsfirst game of the season is tomorrow, April 1st.) Regardless, today is a great day for all baseball fans, including me.

Background info: there are 30 teams in the MLB (major league baseball), and each plays 162 games in the regular season. The teams are split into 6 divisions of 5 teams each. The teams in each division with the most wins, meira 4 wild-card teams, move on to the playoffs.

Many baseball fans and expertsincluding metake this time to predict how many games each team will win this season, as well as which team willwintheir division. Það eru 2,430 games in the regular season, so we just concern ourselves with that for now. Playoff stuff comes later.

I’m a big baseball fan, so I figure this year I’ll chime in with my predictions and picks for who wins the division. I’m just a humble fannot even close to an expertso take my predictions with a grain of salt.

I’ve written down how I think each team will do (wins/losses), plus some analysis that’s loaded with baseball jargon. Avoid the analysis if you don’t know too much about baseball. Remember that the top team in every division (rank 1) gets to move on to the playoffs, so everyone is fighting for that spot.

Og, án frekari fjaðrafok, my predictions & picks.

‘Tis the seasonto not visit websites

Here’s an interesting tidbit from the life of a web developer.

Þú vilt held að fólk myndi fara á netið með því nýjan / brauðrist síma / töflu sem þeir fengu fyrir the frídagur árstíð.

Eins og hátíðlegur andinn fer upp, heimsóknir til vefsíður fara niður.

Frá því sem ég hef séð, þetta virðist vera raunin með nánast hvert vefsvæði og app: heimsóknir eða niðurhal minnka verulega á tímabili frí. Fyrir hvað það er þess virði, things return right back to normal once the new year begins.
