SP1 10/31 Tim Keefe 17 x2 HOF=34
SP2 11/23 Steve Carlton 6 x2HOF=12
SP3 12/26 John Clarkson 10 x2 HOF=20
Sp4 3/11 Grover Alexander 15x2HOF =30
SP5 8/24 Gregg Maddox 2 = 2

Total score = 98

I missed Keefe’s 41 win season by 1 :benson: Clarkson’s 53 win season by 1:benson:, and Alexander’s 27 win season by 1:benson:…I managed to get Carlton’s next to last year:benson:, and Maddox’s first season:benson:….What potential this had… UGH , and yes it was worth 5 Benson's...LOL

I missed Clarkson's 53 season by 2 and instead got his rookie year with 1 win. That could have added another 104! Not even going to look at the rest of mine!

Starting Pitcher #3 - WARREN SPAHN 5.19 23 WINS X 2 = 46

Did pretty well I think other than Roger Clemens who killed me with 7, I picked based thinking it had something to do with top players in a category and then got bored and started to picking based on jersey numbers of my favorites at their positions.

Nice turnout, everyone. We're only missing 5 folks. The next round will be posted early Friday morning before I head out.

Here's the current leaderboard:

leaderboard.jpg

If you aren't near the lead right now, don't fret. When I made this game, I incorporated a few twists to keep things interesting. Not only should this level the playing field, but it'll also prevent folks from working ahead with scoring their team.

I also want to announce several consolation prizes, in addition to the top 5 overall scores.

Top Battery (highest combined score from SP1 & C)
Top Double Play (highest combined score of SS & 2B)
Top Corner (highest combined score of 1B & 3B)
Top Outfield (highest combined score of LF,CF,RF)
Top Individual Score (highest score from any of the 15 positions)
