For our SHEEPs for this question, we have 3 answers that are worth 4 points apiece. Clayton Kershaw only made 27 starts this season, but 20 of them were quality starts. He went 18-4, if that's your thing.

Question 24 closes with one lone ace. As mentioned before, Carlos Martinez put together a big year and took a step forward to be considered an ace of a staff. He managed 20 quality starts on the year.

dropped from 15 to 16 and I'm guessing (based on the wide variance of final question answers and low sheep total) i won't move more than 1 or 2 spots even though i'm correct.

Thanks for running this TJ....it's lots of fun and i know it's a ton of work for you.

See that's why the last question is so great

It's fairly easy to be CORRECT,

but there are plenty of teams you could speculate on and take RISKS

And there's always the question of how chalky the bad teams are,

and then you've got your total surprises like the Twins and Brewers

So who knows how it'll turn out?

Tune in Sunday to find out!

A recap of my last 48 hours:

7 pm Friday night, get to the card game. Run it up as high as +$1100, but then I decided to play AQ soooooooted out of position against a 3bet, with predictable results. Tread water for a while, and eventually quit at 4 a.m. +$420. A little disappointing, but I've been priding myself on making good quits when the game gets bad, and I'll take any quit in the black.

4:30 a.m. Saturday morning: victory breakfast at Waffle House

Home, shower, shave, and at the hospital at 6:15 a.m. sharp Saturday morning. I'm in nursing school, and one of my clinical rotations this semester is all day Saturdays at a pediatric hospital. Put in a 12 hour shift at the hospital.

I have a huge paper due Tuesday, and was gonna work on it all weekend, but I find out that I got a reprieve and we get a whole extra week to do it!

Clearly I should celebrate by playing more poker on no sleep. Get to another game Saturday night at 8.

Buy in and reload for as much as in for $800. Get as low in chips as a measly $160 in front of me, but the game is great. Stay patient, FINALLY make some hands, and run it up to $2,120! Quit at 5 a.m. Sunday +$1,320, and +$1,740 on the weekend, having not slept since Thursday night/Friday morning.

6 a.m. Sunday victory breakfast of the righteous at IHOP

6:30 a.m., home, getting pretty tired now.

So I'll do the Final Reveal first thing when I wake up, but it might not be during the early NFL games today. Might even go to a card game Sunday evening after the reveal.

Really hope I wake up in time to watch the Falcons kick the Patriots' teeth in.

So it's mature, responsible decisions like these which is why I have a hard time living up to reveals when I say I'm going to do them, lol

For this question, there were 35 correct answers, and 12 incorrect answers.

We'll do this review a little differently. Let's take a look at the top of the standings:
