Box-Toppers picks Yankees over Nationals in 2020 World Series

Shawn Plank March 18, 2020

Box-Toppers picks the New York Yankees to beat the Washington Nationals in the 2020 World Series.

Box-Toppers projects the Yankees will have the most wins among all teams—110—and will be the only team with more than 100 wins this season.

Of course, these projections are made with the assumption that each team will play a complete 162-game schedule. That is thrown into doubt now that Coronavirus precautions have prompted baseball to suspend spring training and delay the start of the season.

Tracking who most helps their teams win the most games, based on box score stats. A method to measure & compare baseball's top players.

Box-Toppers tracks who most helps their team win the most games. Using standard box score statistics, Box-Toppers uses a simple formula to determine a Player of the Game for each Major League Baseball game played. That player is the person who contributed most to his team’s win. Players earn Box-Toppers points for being named Player of the Game and can earn bonus points for being Player of the Day or top player or batter in their league for the day.
