You know what it is...in the last three years, IBC members have cracked the top 20 every year, including Jake Levine winning it all once.
For a $5 entry, you pick one player from each of the A,B,C,D lists and three players not named on any lists. Whoever has the most total home runs at season's end wins. Payouts range from $1-2,000 for first down to about $200 through 20th place. It varies based on number of entries.

I think only JB cashed but I could be wrong.

That's right. JB finished in the teens.

Can't believe you guys let JB win at something.. again. smh

It'll be awhile before he wins here again, so cut him a break!

Can you put a player not on a major league roster in the three other players?

Pirates · Post by **Pirates** » Thu Mar 12, 2015 2:06 pm

You can put whomever you want in there.

Got 4 submissions into the mailbox this afternoon. My wife has her 4 filled out.. whether she gets to the post office on time remains to be seen.

I got my 5 into the mailbox...hopefully a nice diverse selection to win me some money.

Thanks to Stephen for noticing the HR Pool is officially online...all lists have been entered. Our own Nate Hunter is tied for first at the moment.

You doubt the power? Or the player?

Probably doubts the player playing 81 games "IN" Safeco Field. Tough place for a right handed power hitter to make a living.
