They are seeded (by league, title and wins) from 1 thru 4. Pick 3 teams whose seeds add up to *at least* 7 points. Your teams can be from either league or from a mix of NL and AL. For example, you could take the 2nd seed from both leagues and the 4th seed from the AL. Note: If you select either wildcard (4th seed) you get the winner of the play-in game for that League. No points are awarded for that game. Points: 5 pts for a playoff win (excluding wildcard game) -1 pt for a playoff loss (excluding wildcard game) 19 pts for a League Championship (the pennant) 25 bonus pts for winning the World Series You get to see the Wildcard games for free; picks will lock at the first pitch of the Divisional Round, Oct4 ~1p Pacific Q3: World Series Tie Breakers Only if ties seem likely, we will pick tiebreakers once the World Series matchup is set! |
