My guy is only at .333 but it all spends the same.

Fading an 0 for 4.

But I imagine even if I do, eight other players will have picked him.

Charlie Blackmon .. u bearded beauty. . .290 on the nads.. and that's rounding up from .2897

No rounding.

I specified 3 decimal points in the OP, so I guess I'll accept that rounding convention.

He shows up at .290 on my stat sheet

Who's here? It's time for the Question 3 Reveal!

Quote:
3. Name a player with a .290 Batting Average (min 40 PA)
MLB 2017 PEEHS Quote
04-30-2017 , 09:13 PM
I'm here. Technically based on the wording, Blackmon is probably the most correct answer.
MLB 2017 PEEHS Quote

For this question, there were 23 correct answers, and 24 incorrect answers.

We'll start by reviewing the incorrects first

i'm here as well, but expecting my correct to be nowhere close to an ace.

I'm having difficulty with getting updated stats that include today's games. Baseball reference hasn't included today's games, and while ESPN has, it's easiest for me to find and quote stats that don't include today's games.

So I'm quoting through 4/29, but I made sure they didn't qualify on 4/30.

The most popular incorrect was played by 5 of you, Joey Votto. Notoriously tight-lipped about his approach to reporters, Fangraphs noted that he began the season basically swinging at everything in the zone. New approach? Or playing the long con. In any case, his power is back to his MVP year levels, but perhaps at the cost of his average, as he's hitting .247.

Our next most popular incorrect was played by 4 of you, Ryan Braun. He was correct yesterday, but an 0-3 day today dropped him to .287!

Our next most popular incorrect was played by 3 contestants, Miguel Cabrera. He's a career .320/.399/.561 hitter, which is pretty mindblowing, but was only off for a .268 start before hitting the DL this year.

The remaining incorrects are all would-be aces. The furthest from qualifying is probably David Dahl, who hit the DL late in Spring Training and has yet to make his 2017 debut.

Our next incorrect is the speedster Dee Gordon. He just missed this question, at .286 through today.

Our next incorrect is the leadoff hitter for my team, Ender Inciarte. He had a pretty brutal start, though he's been great these last two series. Unfortunately for him, that puts him at .229 on the year.

Our next incorrect is a confirmed homer pick. Gregory Polanco's been stealing bases, but not getting on base as much as he'd like. He's at .243 so far.
