Pop Quiz

Here is another prediction thread because there's never enough predictions to go around at this time of year. There are 25 questions below. Some are multiple choice, some true/false, some over/under for the wagering types among us. All questions refer to games taking place from Opening Day to April 30 only. I think the first pitch of game 2 will be the cutoff for entries.
