Small sample fallacy?

It may be a small sample, but we suck.
Starting pitching will be our problem all year.
75 wins.

Let's see how Miles and Jack do before throwing them all out. Carlos and Michael will be fine (If not injured, but that is all SPs). Luke looks serviceable.
I think 1-6 we're going to have 6 pitchers who can get you a win any game. With our offense that will be good enough. If not major injuries I'll still take a number a lot closer to 100 than 75.
I know I am always an optimist.

6 pitchers who can get you a win any game sounds more like a .500 team to me but I don't see those 6 on our staff.
You truly are an optimist.

Kapler is supposedly the new breed of sabermetric coaches.

He wasn't well liked liked in the Dodger's dugout-and the FO almost gave him the manager's job a couple of years back.

Kapler is absolutely hired to do what the analytics tell him to do. He will keep his job if he does what the analytic guys tell him to do. Albeit also while learning how to get his bullpen guys up.

A position player pitched in March for the first time ever. Nice job, Gabe.

"I also believe this ball club is going to be really good. Like I seriously believe 100 wins is realistic and wouldn't be shocked at 105."
So what number WOULD shock you? 110? How about 75?
Seriously. Who are the 6 starting pitchers that are going to get us to 110 wins? I can't think of a single starter that I expect a sub-3.5 era from. And maybe not any with a sub-4 era.

Cards offense would have to be historically great to sniff 100 wins. Our pitching will be lucky to finish in the middle of the pack.

We're going to need to average 5 runs per game because that's where our team ERA is going to be.
