2004 Win Contest. Back on April 4, I posted the entries for my Red Sox Win Contest. Boston won its 97th game of the regular season this afternoon. With two games left, the Red Sox will finish with 97, 98 or 99 victories. Here are the entries still in the running:
                  Wins  Pedro ERA  Manny SLG

Valmoose 99 2.19 .623
Brian Donovan 99 2.37 .575
Alexander Campbell 99 2.60 .582
Naomi 99 2.97 .578

Franco Baseggio 98 2.60 .590

Ben Mahnke 97 2.97 .574
Joe Gionet 97 3.02 .584
However, in case of a tie, the contestant who came closest to guessing Pedro's ERA would be the winner. Martinez's ERA was 3.90 (the highest of the 25 estimates was 3.10), so it's actually down to these three entries:
                Wins

Naomi 99
Franco Baseggio 98
Joe Gionet 97
