2013 World Series Projection, October 1

St. Louis over Boston

If there's any truth to these projections, I guess I should have been rooting for Tampa Bay over Texas last night, since a weaker field cascades to the Cardinals' chances increasing. I wasn't, though. I've got St. Louis at better than 20% now.

Team	Strength	LDS	LCS	WS	Win
STL	0.6228	100.00	61.68	36.46	20.08
BOS	0.6184	100.00	63.85	34.31	18.92
DET	0.6100	100.00	53.33	28.74	15.31
ATL	0.6030	100.00	60.09	30.41	15.38
OAK	0.5930	100.00	46.67	23.38	11.55
CIN	0.5774	53.47	22.03	10.78	4.84
CLE	0.5541	51.92	19.61	7.72	3.16
LAD	0.5499	100.00	39.91	15.58	6.06
PIT	0.5432	46.53	16.29	6.76	2.54
TB	0.5350	48.08	16.54	5.85	2.16

I've got Cincinnati favored 53-47 over Pittsburgh, but with the game in Pittsburgh, that might as well be a toss-up. We'll see how it looks tomorrow.
