Free MLB Picks Contest ($200 in Facebook Prizes): Detroit Tigers at Pittsburgh Pirates

MLB Picks Contest ($150, $50 Prizes): First Round, Detroit Tigers at Pittsburgh Pirates

Tuesday, August 12th

This is the first round of our next MLB Picks Contest, featuring a $150 prize to the first participant to reach ten wins and a $50 prize for the person who gets there second. The contest is free to join, simply comment on this post to participate.

The Tigers and Pirates are two evenly matched teams with similar records. It’s an inter league game, which always adds a little volatility to the matchup. Further, if the Tigers do have a slight roster edge, it’s mitigated by having to travel to Pittsburgh to face the Pirates on their home turf. Get used to it, most of the games we feature will be very difficult, just like this.

Feel free to comment on this post to participate. Free money is the best kind of money, isn’t it?

Good luck to all our participants in this round ...

MLB Picks Contest ($100 Prize): Winner, Final Standings, Cubs Rockies

Congratulations to both Alex Dionne and Duane Atkinson on amazing contest results. I’ve never seen anything like it – double the wins of any of our next closest competitors. A tip of the hat to you both, you killed it!

Alas, there could only be one winner.

Duane, please send us a private message with your paypal information.

Here are our final standings. Let’s hope we can put up more of a fight in the next one. Considering the coin flip nature of these games, a blowout like this was truly the first of its kind by these two. I look forward to hosting the next $100 contest with all of you. Remember, it’s ...

MLB Picks Contest, Standings Update: Boston Red Sox at Toronto Blue Jays

This is incredible. I’ve never seen two people rise to the top like this edition of the contest. Coin flip after coin flip, Duane and Alex continue to impress. After a thumping in game one, the Toronto Blue Jays bounced back and knocked off the Boston Red Sox. With split results, here is the latest update to our standings. Remember, first to ten gets $100, and if there’s a tie we’ll go to an extra round of blind picks overtime where each player submits selections by private message, which is always a lot of fun.

MLB Picks Contest: Boston Red Sox at Toronto Blue Jays

Well, this is how we want them to shake up, right? So many variables, so much to look at, and a coin flip line with conflicted computer parameters. Contest games are supposed to be just like this, and I’m always happy when I find them a week in advance. Good luck.

The Computer sees five-star value on the road dog here, but I don’t see it and find obvious conflict in the parameters here. The parameters are in conflict as they are less than 50% likely to win, and this is ...

MLB Picks Contest: Boston Red Sox at Toronto Blue Jays

Tuesday, July 22nd.

The All-Star Break is over, so let’s get back to our competition. I’ll feature a couple of mediocre teams, divisional rivals, in the back end of their pitching rotation for this one.

I avoid games where there is volatility like this. Bad teams create unpredictability. This game could go either way. Home edge, or a winning tradition in recent years? Both teams are playing pretty average baseball coming into the break, so Tuesday’s game looks like a toss up to me.

As always, just comment on the ...

MLB Picks Contest: New York Yankees at Baltimore Orioles

Vegas is taking a little extra time to post the line, which makes sense as this one feels like yet another contest coin flip.

The Yankees are winners. They find ways to win despite injuries and are always in the hunt. Last year their aging roster stumbled through the season and this year is more of the same. That said, they’re not too far back, even with their latest loss of Tanaka.

The Orioles are upstart. They’re loaded with young talent and have one of the best managers in baseball. They ...
