Tom Brennan - METS' PITCHER 2017 PROJECTIONS

Some folks don't like making projections.  But, c'mon folks,  baseball is only a game, so why not speculate and guess?  Opening day is, after all, TOMORROW!

I'm supremely confident that my projections are spot-on. Even if I end up not even close at season's end! So, here goes:

SYNDERGAARD: 20-6, 2.20 ERA, 240 Ks, 210 innings.  Cy Young.

DEGROM: 20-7, 2.16 ERA, 210 K, 210 IP. CY Young runner up.  The two co-aces.

HARVEY: 14-9, 2.85 ERA, 185 Ks, 200 IP.  Lots more Dark Knight than Gladys Knight.

GSELLMAN: 14-7, 3.20 ERA, 170 Ks, 200 IP.  ROY.

WHEELER: 8-5, 3.40 ERA, 120 K, 125 IP.  Comeback player of the year.

MATZ: 9-6, 3.05 ERA, 160 Ks, 170 IP.   

LUGO: 6-5, 3.75, ERA 90 K, 110 IP

MONTERO: 4-4, 3.80 ERA, 90 K, 90 IP

FAMILIA: 40 SV, 2.03 ERA, 90 K, 76 IP, 3-5.

REED: 10 SV, 2.73 ERA, 80 K, 80 IP, 1-2.

ALL OTHERS: BLEVIN, SMOKER, ROBLES, ETC.: 3.50 ERA 2-5, 3.80 ERA.

FINAL TOTAL: 101-61. Oh yeah.  Reyes said "better than 2006." I agree.

So, my guess is as good as yours (not really, mine is better, but I need to be humble, dudes)!  What are your projections?
