I hope Covers realizes there is a game today. Pitchers are set as seen on mlb.com

It's not like it's the second game of a double-header in late September between Detroit and Baltimore. Pretty big game. I think it might even be on national TV.

Well, I was going to pick the game but apparently Covers thinks that tomorrow's game is more important than today's game. How can you have a playoff contest that prevents certain players from making selections? Yes, it's free but do you understand the game is being changed as a result? I'm in a position that it won't matter for me. However, I think a few of the players were going to make picks. We're mostly going to sit it out now and I doubt that's how it was going to play out.

Actually all pending plays with Friday date should be graded with Thursday's result.

You can’t because people picked the games after they started

Watch out if the Yankees win tonight......some contestants have NYY +593 !

I agree, the integrity of this contest has come into question.....

I see the crazy moneylines on some of the top leaders. Something needs to be corrected: first place sickness city has Houston +206; 6th and 11th place has NYY +593; 9th place has Hous -285. Earlier today I looked at the line in the contest and Houston was like -1106 ???? Looks like the line is where it should be now.
