I have tallied the results, and now only await haven to discuss some of you who got your questions right.
Castor and SamCassell tied in our prediction contest. Hence, we'll have a tie break in which they both guess something that only I can see. The question is: How much run support did Justin Duchsherer receive? Justin was 10-12 despite having a nice 3.97 ERA. He played for the World Series champion Arizona Diamondbacks. Deadline for answering this question is 4:15pm central time on Sunday.
I am going to guess 3.51 only because I think it is a little higher than 3.5. If i win I want my player to be named Reece Kemp and be a left handed 3B. CK
Castor won the sim league challenge.. sorry for the tough loss... as a runner up prize, you can give any player in the draft any nick-name you want.
