Very nice, now answer the question.

 

Most Over/Under attempted:

 

23 Darth Wicket

22 Primbud

11 Nomaa Jedi Piarra

 

*uses simple Math to steal some superstatistician thunder*

 

Yours should be 25 ... you forgot to add the 3 in your ties column.

 

I'll say over for the Major League leading HR hitter.

 

RBIs for Major League leader in the coming year - 150

L1138 : Over

NL Team Wins = 4

L1138 (1-0)

Prim : # of 20-game winners this yr.: 4

# of 20 game winners = 0

DW (1-0)

DW : Number of World Series games this year - 5.5

Prim : Over. That's tougher than I thought. What did you have in mind for that one, the AL dominance??

Number of World Series games - 5

Prim (0-1)

DW : Number of no-hitters thrown this year in MLB (I don't think there has been one yet this year) - 1.

Prim (0-1-1)

DW : O/U - Runs scored in the All Star Game - 10

Runs scored in All Star Game = 5

Prim (0-2-1)

Derek Jeter in RBI for this season, at 98.

DW : Over...he'll finish with 99.

Jeter RBI = 97

DW (1-1)

DW : O/U - Number of pitchers with 250+ K's this season - 2

Prim : I'll go with the under, injury the rationale.

No of pitchers with 250+ K = 0

Prim (1-2-1)

DW : O/U - Palpebon's ERA this season - 1.00

Prim : Over. I can't trust any so-called superclosers unless I see them in action for a long time.

The Trevor Hoffmans and Mariano Riveras are few and fare between but the Brad Lidges are not.

Palpebon's ERA = 0.92

Prim (1-3-1)

Prim : Mark Texeira home runs this season O/U 23 - he's at 9 right now.

DW : Under...he seemed to drop off really big from the last two years. Is he injured or something?

Texeria HR = 33

DW (1-2)

DW : O/U MLB leader in saves this year - 54

Prim : Under. I say 52.

Saves leader = Francisco Rodríguez with 47

Prim (2-3-1)

DW : Number of games won for NL Wild Card Winner - 88

Prim : Over. 90 or 91.

NL Wild Card winner = La Dodgers with 88

Prim (2-3-2)

Prim : # of 100-win teams this year in MLB - O/U 2

NJP : Over, prolly 3 (Det / Chi / NYM)

# of 100 win teams = 0

NJP (0-1)

NJP : Teams over .500 in NL West: o/u 3

DW : Over...everyone except Arizona.

Teams over .500 in NL West = 2

DW (1-3)

DW : Teams under .500 in NL East O/U 3

Prim : Under. I think everyone except Washington will do some good and approach

the mark in their own gutless way.

Teams under .500 in NL East = 3

Prim (2-3-3)

Prim : Aubrey Huff home runs as an Astro thru 2006 at 14

DW : Under...but just barely.

Aubrey Huff HR as an Astro = 13

DW (2-3)

DW : Number of 5 game division series plus 7 game championship and

world series this year (out of 7 total series) - 3

Prim : Over, but that's an interesting one.

Number of 5 game series + 7 game series = 1 (Mets vs Cards)

Prim (2-4-3)

DW : Number of awards won by NL East and AL East teams this year

(out of 8 total - MVP, Cy Young, ROY, and Manager of the Year) - 3

Prim : Under, but only a little over half the regular season's over so my

decision isn't as solid as it could be.

# of awards by East teams = NL MVP, NL ROY, NL MOY (3)

Prim (2-4-4)

Prim : Ichiro Suzuki O/U 225 hits this year

DW : Over.

Suzuki hits = 224

DW (2-4)
