PrintWe'll have a game thread tonight for the homerun derby, and a mini (un)secret swag contest to go along with it. Leave your guesses in the comments:
Goal: Predict the winner (player) of tonight's homerun derby
Tiebreak #1: Homeruns in the final round by the winner
Tiebreak #2: Homeruns hit in the final round by the loser
Obviously, you have to get the Goal correct for either of the tiebreaks to matter. No credit is given for the tiebreaks if you don't actually guess the correct winner. Entries will only be accepted up until 8pm EDT tonight. Good luck!
The contestants are:

woops
i totally misread the tiebreakers. i thought it was homers by winner in first round, homers by winner in second round.
whatever, hamilton could hit 11 in the final round i guess
Prediction
I’m gonna say Morneau wins it, but only after Josh Hamilton breaks the home run record and knocks a few off the back wall of Yankee Stadium. Long shot, I know. Just a SWAG.
The 2008 NY Mets: Reyes singles. Castillo infield single. Wright walks. Beltran lines out. ZaBlanc bitches. Delgado strikes out. Reyes picked off third. Fans boo. Padres win 2-1.
And the winner is...
who?

He’s the only one who picked Morneau.
