Colby Rasmus Fire Burning in the OF!!

 

 

 

Holy s***, I had forgotten about that f***ing video! My ears!

[kcjaysfan]

Points for each player change daily, so it's best to make your pick before the game (when I post the lineups), if possible. If you can't make it to the next game, I don't mind if you make your pick early. Just has to be after the previous game.

 

I typically try to wait until right before the game. I usually work from school everyday, and when there are evening games, I've already been at school for about 12 hours, so it's about the right time for me to quit for the day. When it's a day game, I sometimes forget that they're even playing, so that's why I made my choice tonight.

Today’s Matchup - June 15th, (4:10pm EST)

Blue Jays @ Texas 3 of 4

Opponent Pitcher: RHP Lindblom (0-1, 5.91)

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 post updated standings and the top 18 members will make the playoffs beginning August 26th. (playoff info to be posted later)
