SIGN UP HAS ENDED !

I don't think we will get to the 30 mark, so we will go with TWO teams each for the 15 players who have singed up already.
Will wait to hear from everyone as to which scenario they prefer.

So far:
Scenario #1 . . . 2 votes
Scenario #2 . . . 0 votes
No preference . . 3 votes


Dammit, Jim.....

Any chance of being an alternate if there are any dropouts? I "might" be able to come up with a decent 5er x2 despite my love of "Bur's 1-Buck Smokes"

d'oh!

Jim,
If you can talk someone out of one of their teams, I'll make the appropriate edit.

If you'd like, you can have my Royals. It's a risk on my part though since jespear was getting close to caving one the combined game/score request. I could sense the wavering

And hey, still tied for 3rd and not far out of 1st.

Not take advantage of the offer and seem ungrateful, or get an up and down AL team.


Wait, AL team, they get the designated hitter and score runs.

I'm in if it's ok with jespear and Palama.

And yes, I meant the Star Trek reference too. May the Force be with you all.

I'm okay with it as long as Sunoverbeach is . . . and he seems to be agreeable, so you're in, Bur.

And yes, I meant the Star Trek reference too.
I completely missed that
Thought you forgot my name.


May the Force be with you all.

even though I don't have them, I'm rooting for the Dodgers to be the first to fill the rack of numbers...crossed 12 off on opening day by hitting 8 dingers....

GO DODGERS!!!

my assigned teams...Braves and Orioles............not so much...

You came close yesterday, as did theosprey and AKDAVE.

Something about the grid that I didn't notice before . . .
On games that are "in progress", their current score flashes.

My biggest problems, I believe, are the Marlins scoring, and the Yankees getting shut out.
If I remember correctly, the Bronx Bombers were one of the last teams to game shut out the last couple of seasons.

Quick update:

Three teams tied for 1st place with 6 slots checked off.
AKDAVE (Seattle)
Palama (Boston)
Stinger88 (Los Angeles Dodgers)

Sunoverbeach jumps up to a 17 team tie for 2nd place with 5 slots checked off.

Five teams have 4 slots.

Five teams have 3 slots.

On a side note . . .
Ewok may be in trouble as the Phillies have scored 8 or more runs in their first five games.

Mariners and Dodgers have charged out of the gates...this may not take long...

if jespear approves, I propose to add a bonus fiver to the player who guesses, or who comes closest to, the date the first team completes the grid...

OK...bonus game is on.

I'll send a "decent fiver" to whoever, of the current players in this contest, guesses the correct date that the first team completes the 13 run grid. Only current players are eligible; one guess per player; all guesses must be in by this time, next Saturday, 4/13/19.

stinger ----------- 5/4
RMAN4443 ------- 6/1
theosprey247 ---- 6/11
