Official 2015 HR Contest!!!


Recommended Posts

This is a simple contest that runs throughout the season. The goal of the game is to pick one player on the Sox that you think will hit a home run during each game. You do not need to make a pick each game and you can join in whenever you want. The season will be divided into two halves (depending on the number of participants) and the top 12 members from each half (depending on the number of participants) will enter a three round playoffs. Each player will have a point total assigned to them.

 

Eaton 8

Cabrera 3

Abreu 1

LaRoche 1

Avi 3

Ramirez 3

Gillespie 5

Flowers 5

Johnson 8

Bench 10 (Just an example)

 

Each home run during the game gets you bonus points:

 

First HR +1 point

2nd HR +2 points

3rd HR +5 points

Grand Slam +4 points

Walk-off HR +5 points

 

Steak of 3 games in a row +1

Streak of 4 games in a row +2

And so on.....

 

For example, if you pick Avi and he hit a HR you will get 4 points. If he hits 2 HRs you will get 9 points (4+5).

 

CONTEST RULES

 

*Pick a player on the Sox's starting lineup that you think will hit a home run at ANY TIME during each game.

*You can only pick the same player 3 times during each week (Monday-Sunday)

*If you pick a correct player you will earn the corresponding points.

*You can only pick one player and you must have your pick in before the the first pitch (I will post the time along with the lineup)

*If you are going away, you can PM your picks for the upcoming games (*Max 5 games)

*Streaks will win you bonus points (bonus points above). Streaks must be in consecutive games, if you miss a game your streak is over

*Player points will be doubled on Saturdays.

*The season will be divided into two sets at June 3rd, 2015, and playoff information is posted below.

 

PLAYOFFS (May change due to number of participants)

 

Season divided into 2 sets

First Half: April 6th-June 10th. (61 games)

Second Half: June 12th - August 9th (55 games)

 

- Top 12 members from each half clinch a spot in the playoffs

- The two members with the most OVERALL points will receive a bye to the 2nd playoff round.

- Playoff ties go to the member with the most overall points during the season.

- It is important for those who make playoffs in the first half to increase overall points during the second half.

Prizes

Hopefully I can get someone who attends a Sox game during one of their promotions to get an extra one or two that we can give away as the prize
