Might as well start with yours truly, tied for our most popular incorrect answer. The Atlanta Braves were tied for 9th place in walks, just 5 BB short of being correct.

Also played by 2 players, our next incorrect is the Oakland Athletics. Moneyball may still be alive and well in the Bay, as they're 13th in BB for this question.

Our next incorrect is the Chicago Cubs. Who's left on their team to draw walks? I don't know. But anyway, they're now 17th in MLB at drawing walks.

Our final would-be 2-pointer is the Los Angeles Angels. Pitchers definitely fear Mike Trout, and now have good reason to fear Shohei Ohtani, but for this question, they come in at 28th in BB.

The remaining incorrects are would-be ace hunters. Up next we have the Toronto Blue Jays, who lead the league in team batting average. They're only 23rd in drawing walks, though.

Our next incorrect is the Arizona Diamondbacks. I was somewhat surprised to see that they're 12th in walks.

Our next incorrect is the freefalling New York Mets. Jacob deGrom can't come back soon enough, and there are real questions about their offense. The NL East is shaping up to be quite the race!

Our final incorrect is the most painful, tied with my Atlanta Braves for 9th in walks for this question, the Cincinnati Reds.

This question's SHEEP answer was played by 5 contestants. The Tampa Bay Rays are certainly a resourceful club, finding ways to navigate their small market and payroll by doing more with less. They're 5th in BB.

Question 15 closes with two aces. Say what you want about Booker, but he's in tune with the AL Central. He correctly picked the Chicago White Sox, who are 7th in MLB in walks. Maybe next year his Tigaaaaaaaaz will be correct and he can go for the homer play.

And our final ace IS the homer play, the Houston Astros. The squeak in just under the wire, at 8th in MLB for drawing walks!

I think by now any correct that I get will be a sheep or close since I did my entry in roughly five minutes. Probably don't need much runbad to catch me

Yankees surprisingly only 9th in the league in batting strikeouts. Also surprising Rays are at the top of the list with the most. Astros all the way at 30th with the least(still don't think this team can win the WS).imo
