2017 MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL PREDICTIONS
PRIME SPORTS REPORT REAL EXPERT BASEBALL PREDICTIONS
Unlike all sports websites PSR actually has experts who have played at an elite level of baseball. Elite level defined as university and higher. No sports website has any ‘sportswriters’ who have played an elite level of baseball. In fact, they have not played sports at all. They are all liberal arts graduates who have lived sports lives vicariously through games. That, supposedly, makes them ‘experts’.
PSR actually knows what it is like to face a major-league pitcher, play with and against pros, hit a curveball, and manage a team of elite players. You will not find this on any other sports website. PSR has the same expert level of experience in all the major sports. That is why our analyses, opinions, and commentaries are the only ones’ worth reading.
For the 2017 baseball season, we have made our picks for the regular season and expectations on who would make the playoffs. It is senseless to predict beyond that because of the length of the season, injuries and trades. We will make playoff predictions when that time comes.

It will be a roller coaster ride season – injuries to fragile pitching staffs and trades of players at the end of existing contracts will change the landscape in a big way. An additional factor will be the call up of top prospects who are on the cusp of making it to the Bigs. These will be THE stories for 2017.
