GIG Round 4

August 09, 2024, 05:41:39 PM

Again, sorry for the delay, guys. Gonna keep it simple this month - special thanks to Bob M. for most of these ideas. Also, I'll have some time tomorrow to tally the GIG points and post them.

Deadline to answer Round 4's questions is by Monday morning, August 12, so Rod and Brendt can start running games again.

All questions regard the month of August, not the accumulative stats from the beginning of the season.

1) Pick three teams that will have the most wins for the month of August. 2 points for each correct team named. Put them in order (1-2-3) and if you nail the order, you get 5 bonus points.
2) Which team will be atop the Frick (ties count)? 2 points.
3) Which team will be atop the KML? 2 points.

For questions 4-8, you'll get 2 points for each correct player named. Put them in order (1-2-3) and if you nail the order, you get 5 bonus points each time.

4) Pick three hitters that will get the most HR's.
5) Pick three hitters that will get the most RBI.
6) Pick three hitters that will get the most SB's.
7) Pick three pitchers that will achieve the most W's.
8 ) Pick three pitchers that will achieve the most K's.
