Title: MLB 2026 Official Thread
Post by: TraceOneInfinite on February 11, 2026, 08:02:24 AM
Here it is.  2026 MLB Season DUBCC Official Thread.

I hope it is as successful as last season's thread.  Can count on Higheyecue for regular posts and then Sccit and Dogg and some others hopefully sprinkled in.  Let's get it on.  I'll just start my making some predictions for my team, for Dogg and Sccit's team, and for Higheyecues team--since they are the main posters.

------------

Kansas City Royals - 2026 Record -  75 Wins

I got us falling off the map in 2026.  I hate to do that because I do love the Royals.  But I just think the Royals were incredibly lucky last season to finish with a winning record.  I will break down why I think the Royals will have a losing record by a player for player analysis

Pitching:

Seth Lugo - He totally hit the wall and fell off right after he signed his big contract mid-season.  The Royals and Analysts are just acting like as if that didn't happen.  But essentially, they are taking their best pitcher and now he is your worst pitcher.  That's a serious blow.

Cole Ragans -  Will get injured

Noah Cameron - Last years success was a fluke

Michael Wacha - Age has to catch up to him eventually, no way he can continue to be a stud and pitch every 5th day and not start showing wear and tear getting into his late 30's. 

Ryan Burgurt - What a find this guy was.  We picked him up mid-year last year for basically nothing.  He's the only guy I can't say anything bad about (though I do think he will get injured and not make the whole season)

Kris Bubic - Will get injured again

HITTERS:

Jac Cag-  The guy was horrible last year.  He hit like .150 and yet the Royals and Analysts are just pretending like that didn't happen.  Like he will be fine this year and automatically better even though he has never performed in the Pros.  The guy sucks and will tank the team.

Salvador Perez-  Too old, this year he will finally crash out

Vinny Paz - he will get injured

Bobby Baseball -  He will do good but not great.  Not MVP level, but maybe another solid season.

Michael Garcia - Another solid season I suppose

......

Mets -  Mets will narrowly miss the playoffs again because they will not have enough starting pitching.  Especially after suffering an injury or two at starter at some point in the season.

Dodgers -  Win World Series again and Sccit and Dogg still won't give me props for calling it
