9) Potpourri
Make up your own crazy or not so crazy event to happen this week. If it comes true I will assign points to it fairly subjectively based on the following criteria.
< 10% chance of happening (50 points)
< 25% chance of happening (25 points)
< 50% chance of happening (15 points)
> 50% chance of happening (10 points)
> 75% chance of hapenning (2 points)
ie -
James Loney hits a HR off of Strasburg (worth 50 points)
ie - Strasburg is the losing pitcher against the Dodgers this week (25 points)
ie -
Nationals win 2 out of 3 from the Dodgers (25 points)
ie - A Dodger hits a triple this week (10 points)
10) Pick the sequence of wins (W) and losses (L) for the six games this week.
ie - WWWLLW
Each pick is worth 5 points, but you are not eligible for more points once you miss a game. If the Dodgers win their first four games the picks in the example above would net you 5+5+5=15 points.
Tie-breaker:
How many strike-outs will Dodgers starting pitchers get this week?
Note: If Wednesday's game gets rained out then tough shit. Take in to account any chances you feel there will be a rained out game in to your answers.
