Mutineers! This first round of questions will focus primarily on all ten opening 3-game matchups to start the season April 5.
1) Pick the 10 winners of the opening series'. Some GREAT matchups here.
Just pick the winners here in question 1. I've got other questions related to the series' below. 1 point per correct prediction.
ACLs @ Garden Hammers
Argos @ Blues
Rougarou @ Rum Runners
Miners @ Sweets
Kraken @ Robots
Bums @ Dogs
Winds @ Rattlers
Landlubbers @ Madmen
Honey Badgers @ Auk
Brewers @ Koi
2) OPTIONAL: Call up to TWO sweeps from the above matches. If you call a visiting team to sweep, you get 3 extra points for that call. If you call a home team to sweep, you get 2 extra points. If the team you pick doesn't sweep, you get ZERO TOTAL for that match.
3) Let's have some fun with a few matches that feature pre-season favorites for the Cy Young award. Obviously there are other Aces not among the six I'll feature, so no offense to anyone. Guess the total runs scored for the first game in each match. Just enter your runs-scored number after the "=" sign. If you nail it, you get 2 points. If you're within one run, you get 1 point.
ACLs (Urias) @ Garden Hammers (Lynn) =
Argos (Alcantara) @ Blues (Wheeler) =
Honey Badgers (Ray) @ Auk (Fried) =
4) Pick any player from any team to hit a home run in the first game of the season. 3 points if he runs into one.
5) Pick any player from YOUR team to hit multiple home runs in Round One (13 games). Three points.
Good luck, boys!
