If you do not pick a team for the first day of the contest, you can't join midway through, you'll have to wait for the next game to start. Look for the word *NEW* in the thread title. 2. Anyone can join, just pick which team you think will lose, you cant pick that team again for 2 weeks. 3. When a new game starts your prior picks are erased and you can choose from any of the teams again. 4. Once you pick a winner, you're considered a loser, please leave ;) 5. Your pick must be in before that particular game starts, you may change your pick as long as your original picks game hasn't started yet. 6. If you do not submit a pick for a given day, it will be counted as a loss, errr, a win, and you will be eliminated. 7. If your game gets rained out, you will be allowed to change your pick to a game that hasn't started yet. Otherwise, a rainout is as good as a win, meaning, you're out! 8. If there is a day with less than 3 games on the schedule, we skip that day and pick things up the day after. 9. Once we get to the final 2 players, a couple of new rules are thrown in… a. Your pick cannot be posted more than 24 hours before that game starts. b. The two finalists cannot have the same picks, first come first serve. -Tiebreaker - Amongst the teams you've picked, sum up their losses on the season. That is how you get your tiebreaker number. The lower the better, it rewards you for picking better teams and staying away from the bad teams. If there is ever a day where everyone picks a winner, the tiebreaker will eliminate every remaining player who doesn't have the lowest number (there may still be 2 or more people with identical tiebreakers, so they'd keep playing another day) April 15, 2009 Chicago White Sox at Detroit Tigers, 1:05 pm (R) Jose Contreras (0-1) vs. (R) Armando Galarraga (1-0) Cleveland Indians at Kansas City Royals, 2:10 pm (L) Aaron Laffey (0-0) vs. (R) Sidney Ponson (0-1) Colorado Rockies at Chicago Cubs, 2:20 pm (R) Jason Marquis (1-0) vs. (R) Rich Harden (0-0) Boston Red Sox at Oakland Athletics, 3:35 pm (R) Tim Wakefield (0-1) vs. (L) Brett Anderson (0-1) St. Louis Cardinals at Arizona Diamondbacks, 3:40 pm (R) Joel Pineiro (1-0) vs. (R) Jon Garland (1-0) New York Yankees at Tampa Bay Rays, 4:08 pm (L) Andy Pettitte (1-0) vs. (R) Andy Sonnanstine (0-1) Houston Astros at Pittsburgh Pirates, 7:05 pm (L) Mike Hampton (0-1) vs. (R) Ross Ohlendorf (0-1) Philadelphia Phillies at Washington Nationals, 7:05 pm (R) Joe Blanton (0-0) vs. (R) Shairon Martis (0-0) San Diego Padres at New York Mets, 7:10 pm (R) Kevin Correia (0-0) vs. (L) Oliver Perez (0-1) Florida Marlins at Atlanta Braves, 7:10 pm (L) Andrew Miller (0-0) vs. (R) Derek Lowe (1-0) Baltimore Orioles at Texas Rangers, 8:05 pm (L) Mark Hendrickson (1-0) vs. (R) Kris Benson (0-1) Cincinnati Reds at Milwaukee Brewers, 8:05 pm (R) Micah Owings (0-0) vs. (R) Braden Looper (0-0) Toronto Blue Jays at Minnesota Twins, 8:10 pm (R) Scott Richmond (0-0) vs. (R) Scott Baker (0-0) Anaheim Angels at Seattle Mariners, 10:10 pm (R) Jered Weaver (1-0) vs. (L) Jarrod Washburn (1-0) San Francisco Giants at Los Angeles Dodgers, 10:10 pm (R) Matt Cain (1-0) vs. (L) Clayton Kershaw (0-0) 0 0 Probable Starting Pitchers from The Sports Network
