At the end of March, we called up the writers to come up with an exact figure for the number of D-backs wins this season. They responded. The average estimate came in at 89.8 wins. The 2018 D-backs came up just a bit short of that. :( This year, no-one nailed the actual 82-win result, but one of the current writers did peg the 81-83 range, in which the final tally occupied the middle spot. There were a total of ten votes, out of the 184 cast at the time, which got the range right, so if you were in that group, reach over your shoulder and give yourself a pat on the back.
