So in this morning's Mug I mentioned needing to compile results from our over-under contests this season. Well, as it turns out I've got other things I'm trying to avoid doing so...ta-da! It actually happened today.

The first set of results is from this over-under contest I posted on April 1, which asked seven questions about the Brewers. Here's how we did as a community, first of all:

14 of the 17 voters correctly predicted that Ben Sheets would pitch more than 150 innings this season.
15 of 17 voters correctly predicted that 3 or fewer Brewers would hit 30 HR (actual total: 2).
5 of 17 voters correctly predicted that Prince Fielder would hit fewer than 42.5 HR.
10 of 17 voters correctly predicted that Eric Gagne would record fewer than 30 saves.
13 of 17 voters correctly predicted that another Brewer would save more than 10 games.
12 of 17 voters correctly predicted that Manny Parra would make more than 20 starts.
15 of 17 voters correctly predicted that the Brewers would win 88 or more games.

Five predictors tied for the lead in this contest, each with 6 correct answers, and since I didn't include a tiebreaker they'll all have to settle for being co-champions:

Grobbins

Congratulations to our winners.

Now, I also have this contest, where I asked everyone to pick five overrated and five underrated teams, based on the Vegas over/under lines for wins in 2008. There were a total of 30 points possible, here are our top 5 scorers:

1) Jcirillo received 8 points for picking winners and 13 points for picking losers, for 21 points.
2) ILostMy4thFinger received 14 points for picking winners and 6 points for picking losers, for 20 points.
3) MolitorFan received 13 points for picking winners and 7 points for picking losers, for 20 points.
4) Griswald received 12 points for picking winners and 6 points for picking losers, for 18 points.
5) Michael received 10 points for picking winners and 7 points for picking losers, for 17 points.

Worth noting, because I like to whine, TheJay and I both had 16 points, and if the Giants and Blue Jays had each lost one more time, we each would have had 21.

For what it's worth, the Rays (+23.5), Twins (+15.5), Marlins (+15.5), Astros (+13.5) and Cubs (+9.5) were the biggest overachievers, and the Mariners (-25.5), Padres (-21.5), Tigers (-19.5), Braves (-12.5) and Nationals (-11.5) were the biggest underachievers.

At any rate, if you're one of the winners listed above, you didn't actually win anything tangible, but congrats anyway!
