Sorry for the delay. I'm kind of a procrastinator, and I didn't want to sit down and look at all the schedules to see who swept. But I did, so without further ado,

Who's here? It's time for the Question 8 Reveal!

Our first team, that I'm calling incorrect for now, is a bit of a controversy. The Milwaukee Brewers had a game @ St. Louis on 5/3 that was postponed due to rain. It was to be made up when the Brewers next came to St. Louis, which was June 13th, for a doubleheader. The Brewers lost the first game of the doubleheader, won the nightcap, and then won the next two games. So the schedule was initially the 3 games from June 13-15, which the Brewers all won.

My position is the makeup game made that a 4-game series, and they're incorrect.

I'll listen to arguments either way, though. For now, I'm calling the Brewers incorrect.

Also, it might be a good idea to double check me, because it's very possible I made a mistake with the answers.

Anyway, our most popular incorrect is the reigning champion Chicago Cubs. They're hanging around .500, looking nothing like the juggernaut that took the league by storm last year.

Our next incorrect was played by 3 people. It must be an odd-numbered year, because the San Francisco Giants look like trash. They haven't swept anyone on the road.

Our next incorrect was played by 2 people. The Toronto Blue Jays shook off a rough start, but they're still towards the rear of a competitive AL East. They haven't swept anyone on the road.

Also played by 2 people, the Colorado Rockies are right in the middle of an entertaining NL West race. They just love Coors too much, because they haven't swept on the road.

Down to the would-be aces, I went homer with my pick, because they were correct last year! Unfortunately, my Atlanta Braves haven't swept on the road. They HAVE hosted sweeps by two separate teams, which will be revealed later. Sigh.

Our final incorrect is the Los Angeles Angels. They look like a AAAA team without Mike Trout, and they haven't swept on the road.

This question's SHEEP answer is worth 6 points. The Cleveland Indians ended the suspense early, sweeping their very first series of the season, @ Texas 4/3-4/5.

Our next-most popular correct answer is worth 5 points. The Los Angeles Dodgers got in just under the wire, sweeping @ the Reds on the final weekend of the question.

Our next-most popular correct answer is worth 4 points. The Washington Nationals swept my hapless Braves, desecrating Sun Trust Park, April 18-20.
