This is a pretty fun contest. Thanks for doing it.

[Angrioter]

[Dylan]

You got Jose, and a +2 bonus today. Which bonus are you talking about?

[Angrioter]

ok thanks

[dmrich28]

you could always start...just to make more homeruns meaningful...just a thought. 2nd hr worth 1/2...3rd worth 1/3..4th 1/4 etc ???? leave it up to you

Sounds like a lot of calculating, I just wanted to make this game simple and non time consuming. Maybe in the summer when I have more time I'll add in that.

Today’s Matchup - May 14th, (7:07pm EST)

Giants @ Blue Jays – Series 1/2

Opponent Pitcher: LHP Zito (3-1, 2.75)

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.

[declan_44]

I have to change it up, give me Lawrie please.

So Blanco is the answer ?

 

Would be huge if he does win it for ya!
