The Backstory

In 2018, a husband convinced his wife to fill out an MLB prediction sheet. She wasn't a baseball fan. But she is competitive.

He picked the Red Sox to win it all that year.

They did.

She's been trying to beat him ever since.

What started as a friendly bet is now a game for anyone who wants to make bold predictions and see how wrong (or miraculously right) they can be.

She's a Diamondbacks fan now, by the way. Picks them almost every year.

Create an account, then build your bracket by predicting:

  • Division standings — Rank all 5 teams in each of the 6 divisions

Submit your bracket before Opening Day and you're in!

Brackets lock at Opening Day — the first official game of the MLB regular season. Once locked, you cannot edit your predictions.

That's what makes it "Way Too Early" — you commit before a single regular season pitch is thrown!

Yes — but only before Opening Day. Make as many changes as you want until brackets lock.

Once the season starts, your bracket is set in stone. No take-backs!
