OFFICIAL RULES

Phase I will last 52 days. Starts on opening day, Thursday March 31st 2011. Last day of selections will be Sunday, May 22 2011.

Pick one baseball team each night to simply win their game. You cannot pick the same team twice. And you have to select all 30 teams in baseball one time.

Contest lasts for 52 days. So seeing as how you need to pick every team in baseball one time and one time only, there will be 22 days you don't pick a game. Use those PASS days wisely when there is no strong selection amongst the teams you have left to use. All picks must be time stamped, in this thread, no later than the official start time of the game per MLB.com or else the pick is thrown out. While you don't have to post your picks until the start time of the game you are selecting (example: can post a pick for a 10:05 PM EST game at 10:01) ... you cannot change a posted pick once the days first game is underway. If your team is rained out, you get a PASS for that day and have to select that team for another game in the future.

The winner is the person with the most total wins after the Sunday, May 22 games end. Winning % means nothing. Most total wins. If two people are tied at the end, and one is 22-8, and another is 22-7 (say due to a day #52 rainout) ... that is still a tie. Only category that means anything is total wins.

If everyone makes all their picks, each entrant will have picked exactly 30 games, each team in baseball one time, over a 52 day period. $30 per player, winner take all.

The tiebreaker, once we get there, and if we need it ... will be to pick the winners of every baseball game on the last day of the contest, Sunday, May 22. And note - May 22 is both the final day of the contest, AND the tiebreaker day. Any competitors who could potentially be involved in a tie will have to pick the winners of all 15 games that day. And also identify their final Pick 30 selection, if they still have one pick left to make. The second tiebreaker, if needed, is total runs scored by all the teams you selected to win in the final day tiebreaker. Third tiebreaker would be run differential.

Opening Day is priceless. On to another year of MLB Pick 30 and once again the field is littered with past winners and familiar faces. Day 1 had 11 of 27 players make picks. 4 players nabbed the Angels and Braves for opening day wins. 7 others took a loss with the Cardinals, as Ryan Franklin gave up a 2 out homer to Cameron Maybin in the 9th. The Padres sealed the win in extra innings on a Ryan Theriot error.

The real winners on Day 2 of the pool were those 10 players who elected to pass on the action. Day 2 provided a 4-13 record as the day was filled with late game drama. Eckersley goes to 2-0 as he rode Josh Johnson and the Marlins to an easy victory. The other 3 winners cashed in on a Phillies 9th inning rally that included 6 straight hits off Houston's closer.

7 players lost with Colorado as Jimenez was torched by the Diamondbacks, who subsequently lost on a wild pitch in the 11th inning. Diamondback players noted the lack of velocity on Jimenez's pitches. 3 players lost with the Cubs as Walker and McCutchen accounted for all 6 Pirate runs. jjgmyers suffered a second consecutive bad beat as the Royals defeated the Angels with a walk off HR.
