[Mariano_Rivera]

Pick

Worst Case
SP-Randy Johnson fails to be the ace whle Wright and Pavano endure serious injuries failing to bounce back from `05 Mussina, growing older, fails to be consistent and manages only a 4.70 ERA, Small and Chacon do well again but not as well
Bullpen-None of their new Middle Relievers can adjust to the New York media and be as bad as last year, Farnsworth fails to live up to hopes and has a high ERA and Rivera has a average year (for Rivera) but does not do as well as last year
Offense-The offense will be awesome know matter what but A-Rod will not do as well

Best Case scenario
SP-Pavano bounces back and has a great year while Wright fails to and has another bad year Chacon and Small do as well as they did last year and Randy Johnson is a fantastic ace they also acquire Roger Clemens who has his lasst uyear in pinstripes Mussina performs above average
Bullpen- The middle Relievers do not need a year to adapt and Farnsworth lives up to hopes Rivera has an ERA slightly below 1.80 but does not ake the same run at the cy young award
Offense-Their are no major injuries and they destroy records winning way over 100 games and take the division by storm

Predicted Scenario
SP-Randy Johnson is an ace and lives up to expectations while small and Chacon do well. Pavano bounces back and has a big year but wright fails Mussina is an average pitcher with a 4.50 ERA or similar to that
Bullpen-Most of the Middle Relievers will adapt quickly to New York and turn a very good team into a great team (95gms won-100gms won) Farnsworth however does not adapt as quickly and has to rely on a combination of other pitchers to help him out Rivera has a ERA slightly below 2.00 and is fantastic
Offense-This offense will destroy all records and Johnny Damon will lead the charge though several players are getting older (sheffield for example) they are still dangerous A-Rod will not have back to back MVP caliber seasons but will do fantastic anyway

Final Note- please comment and post your own picks but do not critisize mine in an insulting fasion

thats my predicted scenario along with farnsworth having an era below 2.50 and 80 K's.
