MLB Picks Pool 2019


Walter

Recommended Posts

Here we go again....same rules as last year:

Rules:  By Monday night, March 25 pick who you think will win each division, and two wild card teams from each league. You will earn 1 point per win and, at the end of the season, earn 5 points for each wild card pick and 10 points per division champ you pick. You can still earn 5 points if you pick a division winner who only gets the wild card.

I guess its officially started if you count the two games in Japan.  The standings show Seattle at 2-0 and the A's who I have winning the West at 0-2.   Crazy shit.  My favorite team who are picked to be the doormats of doormats are at the Yankees to open the season. I cant remember the last time the Orioles opened on  the road?  i can't even name the manager.  Buck Showalter must be on a Yacht somewhere?  I do not think he was hired?  I only know our new GM is the former Houston assistant GM.  Machado is a Padre.  Harper a Philly and I wonder if Trout is the richest guy in sports history?  I do not like it one bit.  

I am going back and forth on Arizona. I am going to go against the conventional thinking that Washington, Mets and Cubs and Cards will be in.  I am also big on the young White Sox.  I am going to bet they cash in early on the ever growing talent.  So I guess I am going to stand pat on what I picked, though I know its a stretch.

Rick, Walter is doing this pool.  And he did answer a couple of posts up when he said he made the change for you.

Well its actually pretty darn close.  Us two hockey fans are in last place Zepscoda.  But long time to go.  I expect to really make up ground as I have lately with Colorado.  Notice they have come to life?  Ha.  Im comin for you Strider.  I see you are tied with Walter for 3rd.  Houston is on fire.    My biggest mistake so far is Oakland but i expect them to pick  up the pace.  I am surprised my score is not better because San Diego is doing well and I am the only one to have them.  I left Boston out and so far so good on that.  OMG, thats right. I had a moment of stupidity and changed to Baltimore.  DEAD

I don't have much faith in my picks this season for some reason. I see myself slipping as the season progresses.

Me too. Didn’t do my homework as well as I did last season. But it’s still early.

I believe that I am currently in 2nd place is because the Saint Louis Cardinals happen to have the (current) best record at the moment.  However, there is still 132 games left in the 2019 Major League Season.  

Again, Good Luck to everyone involved, (that includes you, Rick).

Edited to add:  That is how much of a nice person that I am.

5 out of 8 have them picked, including the last place contestant thus far. But yeah, they've had a good start. 10 bonus to points to you and MightyLedZeppelin if they win the division, like you both predicted.  Game on.
