PLEASE READ CAREFULLY!

Hello everyone, and welcome to my own time-honored tradition - one which I've been doing for the past few years. I believe I've truly lost my mind when you see what's at stake this year. We are now getting very close to D-Day, so it's time for the clairvoyants on this board to stand up and be heard.

The contest is simple and straightforward.

Predict who the Top 10 draft picks of 2010 will be.

Here is the draft order:

1. Washington Nationals -
2. Pittsburgh Pirates -
3. Baltimore Orioles -
4. Kansas City Royals -
5. Cleveland Indians -
6. Arizona Diamondbacks -
7. New York Mets -
8. Houston Astros -
9. San Diego Padres -
10. Oakland Athletics -


The person who predicts the most players correctly in the exact order will win. In the event of a tie, the person who posted their guesses first wins.

THE GUESSING DEADLINE WILL BE SATURDAY, JUNE 5TH AT 6:00 PM, CST.

That's a mere 48 hours prior to the draft.

Once the deadline expires, this thread will be locked. You are free to edit your guesses until then.

Naturally, I expect there to be several of you who will leave a blank post with the intention of filling in your guesses later. I strongly encourage you not to do this, as you will very likely forget to do so. History doesn't lie, friends.

Ready to find out what you're playing for?

The winner will receive this:

2008 Playoff Contenders Logan Morrison AUTOGRAPH - Only 314 Made!


But wait - there's more!





If the winner happens to predict ALL TEN positions correctly, he/she will win this as well:

Jumbo.jpg
2008 Bowman HTA Sealed Jumbo Box! Chance at Jason Heyward Autos!


If Chris wants to make this a sticky, that's cool. Otherwise, I'll bump this thread every so often.

Please make sure your guesses are clear and legible, and that you use each player's name only once.

I wish all of you the best of luck.

This should be interesting. :p

I had a bet with myself that the first reply would not be someone with 10 names. :lol:

Let's see if you remember to edit them later.

Just a reminder to you all - ALL OF BASEBALL AMERICA'S STAFF IS ON TWITTER.

Might wanna pick their brains a bit. ;)

That's the only help I'm giving you - now, go do your homework!

Sweet prizes by the way. I'm not sure I believe anyone will get all ten, but pretty cool to offer up somethin like that. Has anyone guessed all ten correctly in the past?

Nope, no one has. And I keep making the grand prize better each year, too.

Re: The Jaypers Annual DRAFT PICKS CONTEST (Mega Prizes!)

I'll just go with a mock.
1. Harper
2. Machado
3. Taillon
4. Sale
5. Pomeranz
6. McGuire
7. Cox
8. Sale (josh)
9. Whitson
10. Choice

I'm just as likely to be wrong as ESPN, so I'll just use theirs.

I don't think anyone ever will. Every year 3 or 4 teams play it safe, and it's always hard to predict those 3 or 4.

Re: The Jaypers Annual DRAFT PICKS CONTEST (Mega Prizes!)

Something else I just thought of --- there are two players with the last name "Sale" who are likely to make it into the 1st round.

BE SURE TO USE BOTH FIRST AND LAST NAMES FOR THESE GUYS!!!!!!!!

If you don't, your guesses WILL NOT COUNT.
