The experts have spoken and they are calling for the NL pennant to come to Brooklyn! They are expecting a 9 game lead over the 2nd place Giants.

For the AL it seems that the Philadelphia Athletics could unseat the Highlanders.

And why are they calling for such a good showing for the Superbas?

The same reason why Eddie Plank has gone to the bullpen.

The top 4 projected pitchers in the NL are:
Christy Mathewson
Bill Bailey
Johnny Lush
Bill Burns

Sherry Magee of the Giants is expected to be the best batter, with Sam Crawford coming in 4th and Cale Bernard in 9th.

For the AL the tops are Orval Overall of the Athletics and Ty Cobb of the Browns. (They have Cy Young as the 5th best pitcher.)
