Red Sox bets, revisited thus far

http://murbalah-gen.blogspot.com/2009/03/10-days-im-tingly.html

There's the link to my original post.

My thoughts are in (). Looks like I'm gonna hit around 50% on these. Not terrible I suppose...34 games left in the regular season.

PLAYER OVER/UNDERS


Home Runs
David Ortiz 32.5 - Under (only has 22 right now, looks good 4 me)
Jason Bay 28.5 - Over (DING! First hit! J. Bay has 29 already)


Batting Average
Dustin Pedroia .313 - Over (currently just at .298. Pedey having, solid but not MVP year)


Doubles
Dustin Pedroia 40.5 - Under (has 40 right now, looks like he'll easily get more than thought)


RBI
Kevin Youkilis 102.5 - Over (at 74 now, will have to make a push for next 29)


Stolen Bases
Jacoby Ellsbury 49.5 - Over (Dreamboat just broke team record for steals in season, is at 55)


Pitching Wins
Josh Beckett 14.5 - Over (my boy Beckett has 14 now, would be shocked if didn't get more)
Jon Lester 14.5 - Under (Lester has 10 now, arguably been most consistent pitcher all year, should get close to the 14, if not over)
Daisuke Matsuzaka 14.5 - Under (BIG bust this year, only 8 starts and 1 win. He'll be lucky to get 4, much less 14)


Saves
Jonathan Papelbon 38.5 - Under (Paps is at 31 now. Good shot for hitting this mark, but I feel he'll be conserved even more when Sept. 1st call-ups come on Tuesday.)
