5 to watch: Weekend predictions

1. Jack will not win, lose or tie in dramatic fashion.
In what seems like a recurring theme this season, Jack has had incredibly close matches that come down to late Sunday. Against juggernaut Adam, that won't happen.

2. Joe will finish with an ERA above 4.50.
And then he will change his name to "Stock market > Peddlers."


3. Ken will lose big to a manager who is not even in the country.
A big blown opportunity for Ken, who is playing Chris - a manager who is in Italy and not even paying attention to his team.

4. Hal and Adam will remain in first place by Monday morning.
Some close matches and some not-so-close matches. But one thing stays the same: Our first-place teams.

5. A pitcher on one of our fantasy rosters will take a no-hitter into the eighth inning.
We just saw John Lackey do it. I have a feeling there's another one on the way.
