Lock in your predictions before Opening Day.

Welcome to the UEFL's pre-season Prop Predictions, a chance to earn extra points in the UEFL standings. As stated in UEFL Rule 4-6, Prop predictions are forecasts of what might occur during an upcoming season, series or game. They may be numerical (e.g., "On what date will the first ejection of the MLB season occur?") or objective (e.g., "What umpire will finish the season with exactly 10 ejections?").

The following 10 questions serve as this year's prop bets ahead of the regular season. Submit your predictions via the accompanying form (available via "Read More" / scroll down) prior to Opening Day (before April 2) to lock in your picks. Predictions filed after 12:01 AM on April 2, 2017 will not be accepted.

*NOTE: In the event of a statistical tie (e.g., Umpire A ejects Manager X in Game 1 while Umpire B ejects Manager Y in Game 2, both games played on the same day, regardless of the time or inning of these two ejections), the tiebreaker procedure shall be as follows:
> Tiebreaker 1: Whichever game's scheduled first pitch occurred first.
> Tiebreaker 2: Whichever ejection occurred during an earlier half inning of the respective game.
> Tiebreaker 3: Whichever ejection occurred with fewer outs during said half inning.
> Tiebreaker 4: Whichever ejection occurred during an earlier at-bat (e.g., batter 1 vs 2 of the inning).
> Tiebreaker 5: Whichever umpire or team person, as applicable, has fewer seasonal games ("G").
> Tiebreaker 6: Whichever umpire or player/manager, as applicable, has more career games worked.
