Explanation / Answer

The teams ATL, CIN, NYY, TEX, WSN are expected to win in 2012. Because, those teams get more WINS and less Errors.

The team COL is predicted by the model to have the worst record in 2012, since it has highest error rate and low win rate.

The team NYY is predicted by the model to have the best record in 2012, since it has lowest error rate and highest win rate.
