by Zachary Cohen

Kel'el Ware has stretch center potential, while also possessing a floor as a playable rim-runner, which says a lot about him as a prospect.

The Wolves Owned All 4,700 Basketball Squares

by John Wilmes

Minnesota's defensive effort in Game 2 was a transformative sight. In what appeared to be an effort to become one with their team name, they swarmed, smashed, hounded, snarled, took, and destroyed for 24 straight minutes to start the game. Not an inch of the court was safe.

I will take the over on this as well. The other bunkmates in the division have little to no offense and their pitching is good but not that good.

I'm taking the over as well. This team should be very, very solid offensively and defensively, and I think that alone will be enough to win 81 games, even with mediocre pitching (see Detroit last season). If the bullpen holds up (as expected), and the starters slip to mediocre (also as some predict), you can probably still get to the 87-win level. But I'm betting the starters will be somewhere near the middle of the pack (with a very good bullpen), and that should take us over 90 again.
