@apba-go-jeremy Did I miss a pick? LOL!!!
-
@buffalohead Yeah :( Apparently you’re convinced Andrew McCutchen will be unemployed in 2019.
-
@apba-go-jeremy Well he hasn’t been the same since he cut his hair…
-
@buffalohead or got married…take your pick.
-
@APBA-GO-Jeremy I know you’re busy with today’s release, so just to make sure it doesn’t slip past you, Hyun-Jin Ryu accepted his qualifying offer and will be back with the Dodgers.
-
-
@apba-go-jeremy Fun! I took a bunch of guesses but I hope I get a few credits. :)
-
For those interested, I thought I’d post the community picks based on the majority of submissions for each Free Agent.
In the chart, Tie means there was an equal number of picks for both teams.
I’ll update this chart as we go, too:

@apba-go-jeremy Those can’t be right, Jeremy. Reds owner Bob Castellini said (and I quote) “We’re going to get the pitching.” So, basically, every one of those pitchers should be going to Cincinnati. I understand though, it’s an easy mistake to make.
-
@apba-go-jeremy I can see a lot of these picks missing as a group. Maybe I will get a couple right.
-
@tigerscott Following the pack does not always lead to success ;)
-
Josh Donaldson - 1 Year, Atlanta Braves
-
For the record (and I know it’s early), this is the first time I have ever been on top of a sports-related pool in my life… ;)

@dbacknate At the contest’s conclusion.
