I’m late to the party, but I’m in. And I don’t feel too bad… because I would never have pegged Moustakas for Cincinnati anyway…
-
@randysteinman and as a 2b at that.
-
@apba-go-jeremy Got a couple of more signings today and I am still striking out.
-
-
@ryandan77 I tried posting a table of the entries, but it kind of breaks the forum page because it’s so large. I’ll try to come up with something now that entries have closed. I’ll post the solution here, whatever it is.

Hi,
A request to view entries was made, and the best solution I can come up with is to post a .pdf of a table.
It’s kind of lame, but you can see the selections you made for each free agent:

Hoping the sharing settings work!

Gerrit Cole signs!
Closest Contract Prediction goes to:
Dodger300 - 9-year, $340 million
Stay tuned for more updates,

Congrats to kweber, BallOne and ColdPredator for being the only participants to correctly pick Anthony Rendon signing with the Angels!
-
@apba-go-jeremy
This is not going well for me. I had pegged Cole, not Rendon, going to the Angels.
And with Cole signing with New York, that almost guarantees my Bumgarner-to-the-Yanks pick will also be wrong.
Great contest again this year. But I’m in need of a minor miracle right now… Haha… -
Congrats to BallOne, the only contestant to pick Madison Bumgarner signing with Arizona.
BallOne takes the lead!
-
First place got a lot more crowded with the Keuchel and Ryu signings.
-
MikeW pulls ahead on Edwin Encarnación’s signing with the White Sox!
-
BradB3030 made the right choice for Josh Donaldson… but no one else did!
Finally, some action!
