Below you’ll find the updated win totals for every team in Major League Baseball. These are the projected number of victories for each team.
More specifically, they are the number of triumphs each team is expected to have by the sportsbooks. Of course, they are also influenced by public perception.
In the tables below we’ve broken out each team in their respective divisions. This allows us to show what the projected final regular season standings would look like if every team hit their total exactly.
This differs a bit from the odds to win the World Series. The team with the most expected wins each year isn’t necessarily projected to go on and win the championship.

Baseball Projections: Regular Season Averages & Over/Under Wins
Taking all of the data we have since 2004, we can then look at the averages for each team and try to see which teams out-perform or under-perform their predicted records each year. This could also give us some insights into which teams the public over/under values as win totals are based heavily on public perception.
We have also included how many times these teams have gone over or under their win projections, as well as how many times they landed right on their posted number.
From the data we have, the Seattle Mariners and Arizona Diamondbacks tend to have the most optimistic projected records on average, while the St. Louis Cardinals and Texas Rangers appear to be often under-valued before the season starts.

Fewest Wins in a Season: Worst MLB Teams of All-Time
In the modern era of baseball, there is a short list of teams that might be considered some of the worst of all-time. The 1916 and 1919 Philadelphia Athletics are widely considered the worst teams ever managing just 36 wins in each of those seasons. Since 1935, however, no teams have won less than 40 wins, meaning the metric for a team being truly bad these days has shifted a bit. In more recent years, anything less than 50 wins is considered an awful season. Most recently, the 2019 Detroit Tigers won just 47 games. Historically this does not put them in the category of “worst ever”, however, only three teams have won less than 50 games in the 2000s.
