Major League Baseball 2018 Season-Long PEEHS - Page 7 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

Our next correct are my never-give-up try-hard Atlanta Braves. Down 5-0 to Aaron Nola, the Braves came back against the Philly bullpen, with homers from Freddie "MVP" Freeman, Ozzie Albies, and the walk-off from Nick Markakis.

Our next correct are a trio of 2-point answers. The Arizona Diamondbacks defeated the Rockies, in a game attended by our own ec_outlaw!

Our next correct is the Seattle Mariners. Let's take a quick look at the records for "most consecutive Opening Day starts by a pitcher:"

14, Jack Morris
12, Robin Roberts
12, Tom Seaver
10, Steve Carlton
10, Walter Johnson
10, Roy Halladay
10, Felix Hernandez

Pretty impressive company. Anyway, the Mariners defeated the Indians 2-1, and I sincerely hope Felix is BACK.

Our final 2-point correct are the New York Yankees. In what is sure to be an assault on pitchers in the AL East, the Bronx Bombers are worthy of the name, and were led by Giancarlo on Opening Day over the Blue Jays.

Question 1 closes with a pair of aces. The Tampa Bay Rays are apparently trying a 4-man rotation. We'll see how well that works out, but for Opening Day, they beat the Red Sox 6-4.

Our final ace is the Baltimore Orioles. Did you know? The Orioles have now won their last 8 consecutive Opening Day games. I guess don't bet against a streak!

Wow, I'm very happy with my choice. Only one other person picked them, they were like the 3rd highest probability to win on opening day.

WOO WOOOOOOOO

The fact that the same amount of people picked the Padres and the Tigers as the Indians, I DOMINATED YOU FOOLS.

Don't think I got above bottom 7 last season, so this is a pretty nice start.

Checked on a few other guys and I'm looking good so far with one absolutely terrible exception that is going to end up as a really big score. I have no idea how popular my answers will be though.

Yeah, I gave 3 weeks for this question last year, but I think with Opening Day being the Thursday before, we've had a larger sample to get more corrects.

My guy has 3... ONE TIME
