Today’s Matchup - August 9th (7:07pm) EST

A's @ Blue Jays, 1 of 3

Opponent: RHP Parker (7-6, 4.61)

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 19th. (playoff info to be posted later)

[Dylan]

I'm going with Rasmus tonight.

[G-Snarls]

Rasmus

 

3 points vs a RHP? Plus he's hot. Obvious choice is obvious.

[Daniel Labude]

Lawrie for tonight.

1 home run in over a month, even while he has been hot.

[P2F]

Thole!

[G-Snarls]

1 home run in over a month, even while he has been hot.

 

Oh, I hadn't realized how few homers he's hit. So many hard hit singles and doubles I just assumed there had been a few more home runs.

I prefer this rasmus over the previous one though.

[Daniel Labude]

I'm going with Rasmus tonight.

 

In ur todays lineup section u have Lawrie with 8 HRs, he actually has 9...probably doesnt influence anyones pick or point totals. Just want to make u aware.
