Not sure if this is where I should post this....
We decided to move away from the Sportsbook idea and go with a pick em challenge instead. With no risk to owners, this is an easy way to earn some extra points and a way to get us talking about rl sports. Here we go. Please get your picks into me by the start of game 1 on Friday. For 21 possible points, please copy and paste the following questions and send your answers back to me as a private message. I'm not sure if Chris or Brian want copies in their inbox, I will let them decide, for now just send them to me. These questions are for the entire series, not one game unless specifically stated.
1. Who will win the WS Texas or Arizona (3 pts) TX
2. How many games will the series go (3 pts) 5
3. Who will the MVP be? (3 pts) Seager
4. Will there be more or less than 32 runs for the series? (3 pts) More
5. Will there be more or less than 2 saves for the series? (1 pt) Less
6. Will there be more or less than 30 walks for the series? (1 pt) More
7. Select the winner of each game (1 pt for each correct answer, 7 possible points)
Game 1 TX
Game 2 AZ
Game 3 TX
Game 4 TX
Game 5 TX
Game 6 N/A
Game 7 N/A
Game 1 results: TX wins 6-5. (11) I think Garcia's walk off puts him as an early MVP frontrunner. No save was recorded, 10 BB given up by AZ pitchers with 1 by TX (11).
Game 2 AZ wins 9-1 (21) no save (0) I walk by the Dbacks and 4 by TX (16). Dbacks potential MVP seems like it is all over the place after that game.
Game 3 TX wins 3-1 (25) Leclerc picks up the first save of the series (1). 3 walks given up by AZ and 2 by Texas. (21) García went 0-3 while Seager hit what would be the game winning HR in the 3rd to get himself into the MVP Convo, from my perspective.
MVP update: Breaking: Adolis García is out of the Texas Rangers' lineup for Game 4 of the World Series tonight after exiting last night's game with left-side tightness.
Game 4: TX Wins 11-7 (43) and the over on runs wins. No save opportunity (1). 3 walks by Texas pitchers and 2 by Arizona (26), control has improved over the series. Siemens may have locked up the MVP with a 2/5, 1 HR and 5 RBI night?
Game 5: TX Wins the series in 5 by inning game 5, 5-0. (48 runs total). No save so the saves total was under (1). 8 walks in the game (34) for the over. Cory Seager gets the MVP.
I will get your quizzes corrected and points up today.
