Every single day for the next month, I plan to post my predictions about which teams will win and lose each and every Major League Baseball game of the 2024 season, whether that is Spring Training, the Regular Season or the Postseason.
If you haven't heard yet, Major League Baseball Spring Training just started twenty two days ago (if you are reading this on Friday, March 15th, 2024), on Thursday, February 22nd, 2024!
All of my predictions are subject to change without notice before game time, but I am still very much looking forward to seeing how many games I correctly pick (especially with my first/original predictions to win and lose) over the course of Spring Training, a 2,430 game Major League Baseball regular season and the postseason/playoffs!
To see my predictions and the results for the 14th of each month, click on this story on my website.
Overall won-lost record on March 14th: 7 wins 7 losses 1 tie
Overall won-lost record in the entire Major League Baseball season in 2024: 145 wins 137 losses 18 ties

My predictions for Monday, July 15th, 2024 (Predicted on Thursday, March 14th, 2024)
Home Run Derby in Arlington, Texas: Prediction to win: Mike Trout, Los Angeles Angels
My re-predictions for Monday, July 15th, 2024 (Predicted on Monday, July 15th, 2024)
T-Mobile Home Run Derby in Arlington, Texas (The Texas Rangers ballpark/stadium).
8th place: Teoscar Hernandez
7th place: Alec Bohm (I still think Bohm could actually win the whole thing especially if J.D. Vance is named Donald Trump's Vice President tonight).
6th place: Bobby Witt Jr. (He could maybe win with his connection to Texas).
5th place: Gunnar Henderson (I don't really think he has a real shot to win, but I like his chances to actually win simply because a lot of people don't really know who he is unlike basically everyone else in this Home Run Derby Field).
4th place: Adolis Garcia (The hometown team for the Home Run Derby, I just can't pick him to win simply for that, because it rarely happens and I really don't think it will happen as only the mega superstars get to win the Home Run Derby in their home team's stadium and Garcia isn't close to being a mega superstar in MLB yet).
3rd place: Pete Alonso (I wish he would just win today's Home Run Derby so someone else can get a chance to be in the Home Run Derby in the future and then just go away immediately forever!)
2nd place: Marcell Ozuna (The All-Star Game is in Atlanta next year, and I just don't see Ozuna winning it all when he has a chance to win it in his home ballpark next year! I know I sound like a hypocrite compared to Adolis Garcia but Ozuna seems like he is pretty close to a mega superstar with how hyped up/promoted he is all the time.)
1st place: Jose Ramirez (I like Cleveland's chances to win twice in one year, the Home Run Derby and the World Series in October/November. So that's why I'm picking Ramirez to win! If you ask anyone outside of Cleveland, I believe he is probably the least-liked player in this derby maybe other than Teoscar Hernandez. I like Alonso, Ozuna, Bohm and Henderson to win, and in that order, if I can't pick Ramirez to win!)
My predictions for Thursday, August 15th, 2024 (Predicted on Thursday, March 14th, 2024)
Prediction to win: New York Mets, Detroit Tigers, Milwaukee Brewers, Atlanta Braves, Boston Red Sox, Philadelphia Phillies, Minnesota Twins
My re-predictions for Thursday, August 15th, 2024 (Predicted on Wednesday, August 14th, 2024)

Predictions to lose: Oakland Athletics, Seattle Mariners, Milwaukee Brewers, Atlanta Braves, Boston Red Sox, Washington Nationals, Minnesota Twins
My predictions for Sunday, September 15th, 2024 (Predicted on Thursday, March 14th, 2024)
Predictions to win: Pittsburgh Pirates, New York Mets, Los Angeles Dodgers, Washington Nationals, New York Yankees, Toronto Blue Jays, Detroit Tigers, Cleveland Guardians, Minnesota Twins, Chicago White Sox, Chicago Cubs, San Diego Padres, Houston Astros, Seattle Mariners, Arizona Diamondbacks
My predictions for Tuesday, October 15th, 2024 (Still to be predicted and determined)
Predictions to win: I plan to post my predictions sometime between March 22nd and April 21st, 2024, when I have a much better idea in approximately a month from now about which teams will be in the MLB Postseason or MLB Playoffs in October 2024. If there is a game that could be even be played on October 15th, 2024!
Predictions for Tuesday, October 15th, 2024 (Predicted on Saturday, October 12th, 2024)
ALCS Game Two (2)
Prediction to win: New York Yankees
Prediction to lose: Cleveland Guardians
