Quote of the day
"When the double was hit, and the ball came back in, everybody started cheering. (Jhonny) Peralta caught the ball and looked up at the board checking the hits. That's when I knew he didn't know. I was like, `Come on, Jhonny.’ " -- Detroit pitcher Justin Verlander, on the moment when his no-hit bid was broken up in the 7th inning

Daily blurb
Baseball holds its annual Hall of Fame enshrinement ceremony in July each year. So why shouldn’t I?

Thus, I am honored to announced the newest qualifiers for the RotoGuru Hall of Fame – Class of 2012-13:

  • Mike Melton, 2012 RotoGuru Invitational Baseball Challenge champion
  • Bill Miller, 2012 GuruGolf champion
  • John Holt, 2012 RotoGuru Invitational Football Challenge champion
  • Rob Thayer, 2012-13 RotoGuru Football Pickoff champion
  • Jason Hall, 2013 RotoGuru Market Madness champion
  • Ryan Bowling, 2013 RotoGuru Market Madness (excluding basket units) champion

Congratulations to all of these Gurupies for their excellence in RotoGuru competition.

In GuruGolf, Jordan Spieth not only played his way into the British Open, he also provided an extra GuruGolf trade to 40 GuruGolf managers – and maybe even effectively two trades, since he won’t need to be sold this week. One of those teams is Masters2, whose -58 was the top best ball score of the weekend. Worst ball honors were earned by Liters with a +38.

This was also the closing week of the four-week contest between the two Opens – the “Open Faced Sandwich Contest”. Here are the prize winners:
Best ball: Dragons
Worst ball: JFKs CLUBS

If you would like to add any of the unlisted British Open golfers to your foursome this week, please send me an email (davehall@rotoguru2.com) by Wednesday morning and I’ll add them.
