Is there some sort of contest for the Derby today?

[Dylan]

I wanted to do a bonus or something but others wanted it to be just for the jays. Lots of people don't care about the HR derby or watch it too

[vdubmvp]

you're a loser brah....

 

You took Lind because I picked him first.

 

Oh, for sure. It definitely had nothing to do with the three home runs Lind has against Feldman.

I wanted to PM you about that possibility but I came to the same conclusion as you, not fair to the other people to miss out on points because they don't care about this non-Jays event.

 

By the way, good job with keeping up day-to-day with this! You're doing a much better job than me at that! Great job

Thanks, but your GDTs take more time than this! Keep up the great work

 

Things might get a bit confusing this weekend since I'm not here Thurs-Sun. I'll do a major update Sunday night.

Today’s Matchup - July 19th-21st

Rays @ Jays Series

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)

LET'S GO BLUE JAYS!!!

[Dylan]

I won't be on till Sunday night, so if someone can close the picks at the start of each game that would be great. The points above will stay the same for all games this weekend. There will be no bonuses. I'll do a big update Sunday night, hopefully this won't get too confusing. If someone can post the points each day so people don't need to search for them that would be awesome.

 

Have a great weekend guys!
