My wifi isn't good enough to stream 2 games at once. I usually go with jays on mute and leafs radio

 

Don't have to listen to buck and get to listen to Bowen! good deal

 

Bowen is good, but it's been all CBC for me and whoever that guy is makes me want to cut my ears off.

[o2cui2i]

ok that's it folks.... No more votes. Game is on

 

thanks for playing

LET'S GO BLUE JAYS!!!

[jays_fever]

Thanks for doing this dude, very fun

[Dylan]

Gives us something else to do during this depressing season.. doesn't take much time to do. Hopefully it leads to more stuff on the board.

 

I'm off to a rough start.

[admin]

Damn, I forgot. Probably would have went with Davis.

I agree. Very simple concept and takes no effort on our part to participate. Interactive things are always fun

[Dylan]

I had a few other ideas like person closest to predicting the score, or our own jays beat the streak.

[over500]

Someone actually decided to pick Bonifacio?

[GD]

We all make mistakes. I picked Lawrie lol. But Boni... now there's a reach.

 

Screw it, if he's starting tomorrow, I'm picking Kawasaki.

To keep things interesting I'll be changing how much each player is worth. Some nights I might make bad players worth 6+ points to entice people to pick them!

there should be an option of no one as well. just saying, that will be the right answer at some point. lol

some people still expect Boni not to suck balls, but that's what he does.

[Dylan]

Ya I might add that soon, or bench picks worth triple what they'd normally be picked. Lots of options moving forward

[o2cui2i]

it makes the game a little more fun. it's a great new feature and I'm glad you're doing it.

 

most people here love the team and want them to do well. having an extra thing to root for helps when the game isn't going well.

[GD]

Yeah, I like the idea of tripling bench picks.

[o2cui2i]

this competition has been great. looking forward to another great one!!!

Today’s Matchup - May 9th, (7:10pm EST)

Jays @ Rays – Series 4/4

Opponent Pitcher: LHP Price (1-3, 6.25)

How to play:

Pick a player on the Jay's starting lineup that you think will hit the first bomb during today's game. If you pick the correct player you will earn the corresponding points. Players more unlikely to hit a home run will earn you more points than those likely to knock one out. Below is a list of the points each player is worth today. Points will change daily depending on whether the player is on a hot or cold streak, and bonus points will be available on random days. You can only pick one player, and you can't change once you picked. You must have your pick in before the first pitch of the game. Daily lineups will be posted roughly a hour before the game. I will keep track of points and the board member with the most points at the end of the year wins.

[GD]

Damnit, why isn't Kawi starting? I wanted to pick him.

 

I'd pick Blanco but I hate him, so I'm going to pick Melky.

[Chappy]

I am going with Bautista.

[declan_44]

Screw it, I am riding Melky to hell or high water. MELKMAN!
