a few of you guys have contradicting answers (#1 and #10)

it's a four-game series so it's impossible for the jays to win the series and be 4.5 (or 3.5 for that matter) games ahead of the sox afterwards. we're 3.5 games ahead of them right now, so if we win 3 of 4, which is what it's going to take to win the series outright, then it would be a gain of two games (5.5), and a gain of four (7.5) if the Jays sweep.

So if you took the Jays in question #1, it would only make sense to choose either 5.5 or 7.5 as your answer for question #10.

4.5 is not even an option, so i guess the two of you who chose that as your answer might wanna change it before the series starts, unless of course you want to surrender the question entirely and throw out the chance at a possible 5 points, but hey whatever bakes your cake

2.5 is also not an option for what it's worth

Lateral Quicks · Post #13 » by **Lateral Quicks** » Fri Apr 15, 2011 3:27 am

For the record, I'd predict a split for #1, but since that's not an option and being the Jays homer that I am, I'll say Jays. But Q10 reflects my split prediction.

just change the last question to "how many games will the Jays win?" It doesn't have to be complicated.

It's actually a four-game series; if the exclusion of Romero from #2 was intentional, my choice is Cecil.

1. Who wins the series? (Sox/Jays) Sox
2. Which starting pitcher records the most K's (Cecil, Reyes, Litsch)? Romero
3. More hits (Escobar or Pedroia)? Pedroia
4. Pick a Blue Jay that makes an error (you can choose none)? Arencibia
5. Will a member of the Jays pen have a Blown save? (Y/N) Yes (any reliever blowing a lead, even before the 9th inning, is charged with a blown save)
6. More Extra-base hits (Snider/Hill/Lind or Crawford/Scutaro/Ellsbury)? (Y/N) Crawford/Scutaro/Ellsbury
7. Does Papelbon earn a save? (Y/N) Yes
8. How many appearances for Shawn Camp? (1/2/3) 2
9. Who has more total bases at the conclusion of the series? (Bautista/Escobar/JPA) Bautista
10. At the end of the series the Red Sox will be _ GB the Jays (Heading into the series 3.5. Could be as high as 6.5 as low as 0.5)? 1.5

Changed my answers to 1 and 10 (well before Game 1 starts); I'm banking on my propensity to be wrong to propel us to at least a split.
