My predictions:
97 wins, 49 SB for LBJ, and 325 OBP for Tek.
95 wins, 55 SB & 312 OBP
I hope you two have read the instructions...
Amy did.
BFiW has not (yet).
And just for bonus points:
AL CY Young: Josh Beckett
Does the TPIR rule hold for the wins, too? Like, if no one guesses 100 or 101, and they win 101, does the 99 person beat the 102 person? Eh, I'm sure all the numbers will be covered anyway.
Almost everyone is recent years has picked 90+, so I'll be shocked if we are not covered.
But the wins have to be exact.
96 wins, 44 SB and .335 OBP.
99Wins 56SB .336OBP
98 wins, 54 SB for LBJ and 332 OBP for Tek
Some people are not reading this post correctly -- specifically, the stuff in BOLD.
There is only one rule -- but you gotta follow it.
Hey, I got a fourth tiebreaker.
How many games will Drew spend on the DL?
I say 52.
100-62 for the Sox, 45 steals for Jacoby, and Tek has a .300 OBP.
Red Sox will win 96
LBJ will steal 57
Varitek's on-base = .339
