Griddle Contest: Name the Last Five to be eliminated
2007-09-10 18:21
by Bob Timmermann

There are 22 teams that won't move on to the postseason, and two of them have already been eliminated: Tampa Bay and the White Sox.

Your mission is to pick the last five to be eliminated. Email them to me at btimmermann@gmail.com and put them in order with the last team to be eliminated at the end. The winner will get a copy of It Ain't Over Til It's Over. It's my copy and I only spilled a little food on it. You won't notice it. Much.

Also, tell me on which date you think the last team will be eliminated. If you think a team will be involved in a tiebreaker playoff, that would be the date you should pick.

The scoring: You will get five points for each team that is in the last five and is in the right order. If you pick a team in the last five, but in the wrong order, you lose one point for each rank you miss by.

The date of the final team's elimination will serve as a tiebreaker.

If there are still ties, I will pick a winner at random.

So an entry should look like this:

5. St. Louis Browns

4. Wilmington Quicksteps

3. Providence Grays

2. Brooklyn Eckfords

1. Worscester Ruby Legs - September 28

The last team listed is the last team out.

All entries must be received by 9 pm PT Wednesday, September 12. You'll have to send the entries in by email to the address listed above.
