    how many games into mlb season can you...

    Evaluate the future role of a team as far as going forward

    For example is it 50 games. Is that enough sample to get an idea or more or less?

    Imo I believe you decide on may 20( around 55 games)

    Trade deadline changes everything.

    1st 30 has usually been a good yardstick.
    40 on the outside.

    Best of Luck this season LB.

    The politically correct answer is trade deadline

    players from former ws winners said they knew it in spring training

    really hard to get a straight answer on this

    easily within 40 games. the only thing of material consequence that happens after that is the chance of injuries. the season could be cut in half and still be way too long. baseball has been dead for so long now, but the league still doesn't get it. unwatchable product.
