CONGRATS TO JOBBERCHO, THE WINNER OF THE CAG ALL STAR HR DERBY! GOOD JOB!

CONTEST IS NOW FULL, GOOD LUCK GUYS!

With the Actual All Star Game Home Run Derby coming up, we're going to have a special all star edition of CAG home run derby!

Here's how it works. First, this one is limited to the first 20 people to post their guess. Second, all you have to do to play this contest is to tell me who is going to win the actual MLB All Star game HR Derby, which will take place Monday night. Along with the player you think is going to win, you also need to tell me how many total home runs you think your player is going to hit (that will be used as a tiebreaker.)

These players are confirmed to be in the HR Derby, but two more will be added sometime today. I'll update the list as soon as I know who the final two are.

Prince Fielder - MIL OUT

ROUND #1 - 3 HRs

Justin Morneau - MIN OUT

ROUND #1 - 4 HRS / LOST SWING-OFF

Vladimir Guererro - LAA - WINNER!!!

ROUND #1 - 5 HRs
ROUND #2 - 9 HRs
ROUND #3 - 3 HRs

TOTAL - 17 HRs

Albert Pujols - STL

ROUND #1 - 4 HRs

Magglio Ordonez - DET OUT

ROUND #1 - 2 HRs

Ryan Howard - PHI

ROUND #1 - 3 HRs

Alex Rios - TOR

ROUND #1 - 5 HRs
ROUND #2 - 12 HRs
ROUND #3 - 2 HRs

Matt Holliday - COL OUT

ROUND #1 - 5 HR
ROUND #2 - 8 HR

PRIZES:

The winning CAG will get a pick from the normal HR Derby prize pool, which can be viewed here:

Damn, didn't realize it was 20 people already. That's what I get for just posting right away. Wish the people that are already on the spreadsheet could be put in ahead of the others, then I'd have a chance. :cry:

You don't have to do anything since you're the only one to pick him, so just watch the HR Derby tomorrow night, if he wins, you win.

My guy was scratched.. Ill change to Morneau with 21.

Danimal

I need to switch picks with Cabrera scratched, too. Lapperscrapper- your pick and total was exactly what I had in mind when I heard about Cabrera. You beat me to it, though. #-o

I guess I'll say Morneau with 22.

wyldmojo
07-09-2007, 08:45 AM

Man I've gotta stop these homer picks, lol .. Magglio is puttin me to shame, shoulda went with Vlad.

EXStrike
07-09-2007, 09:58 PM
Jesus.. 35 homers seems like it was a bad call.

That said, I hope I get proven wrong.

briansraregames
07-09-2007, 10:28 PM
well, there goes over half the field

and swing off homers do not count towards the total

schuerm26
07-09-2007, 10:29 PM
ha ha, I love it. Im still in with my last second entry of Rios. Great stuff though that is a bit of a dissapointment they weren't putting them in the water.

Holy shit, Alex Rios. Holy shit.

Im just hoping he didn't tire himself out. He hit 12 that round. Just need one to hit less than 12. With Vlad and Pujols though you never know.

Man Pujols almost carried me to the finals. The darkhorse came up just a little short. What an effort though.

This had to be one of the worst home run derbies ever, IMO.
