That's hedging bets!!! I say if someone says Jose and not Bautista or Reyes that their vote doesn't count for that day. Sorry, not saying you'll do this but a person could say they meant the other Jose...

 

Wow I'm suddenly taking this too seriously. Need to lighten up. LOL.

Today’s Matchup - July 1st (1:07pm EST)

Tigers @ Blue Jays 1 of 4

Opponent Pitcher: LHP Alvarez (1-1, 3.78)

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 2 hours 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)

Going to the game

 

Arencibia

JP dhing today? I'm guessing

 

Reyes SS

Jose RF

Edwin 1B

Davis LF

Rasmus CF

Thole C

JP DH

Izturis 3B

Boni/Saki 2B

[ElNik2013]

The fact that Thole is hitting ahead of JP is telling here, patience is wearing thin with Gibbons.

[bowld]

Rasmus

[jays_fever]

Il go Davis

That's my lineup, real one isn't out yet

[ElNik2013]

Reyes

[jaysblue]

I'll go with DeRosa if he's in the starting lineup today. If not, then I'll go with Bautista.
