As many of you already know, Baseball prospectus released their depth charts for the year, as well as the pecota based team projections.  

They listed the A's as first with 82wins, the LAAA's at 79.  I remember lots of people predicting that the A's are a 85 win team right now.  What say ye now?  

I don't know a lot about other projections, such as the bill james, CHONE and zips and zits, but I do know that BP delivers year in year out.  

IF the angles add dunn, and he is a two win increase, then the a's would be still up one game, which is well within the margin of error; it will come to how much grit the A's have and how mexican chavez is, I guess.
