AsGirl...
In case no one is blue enough over this disappointing weekend, read the guesses that people made on that GOG in March... Incredibly depressing things about Crosby (well over 100 starts, we all thought), Harden (Cy Young!), Ellis (A's top hitter, AND All-Star appearance)... <sigh>
Anyway, here's guesses for the current installment:
- How many games do the A's win this year? 95 assuming you mean REGULAR SEASON...
- When will the AL West be clinched? Monday 9/25
- Starts for Melhuse the rest of the way: 1
- How many runs do the A's score this season? 762
- Team ERA for 2006: .409
- How many HR does Thomas hit this year? 42
- How many saves does Huston finish with? 40
- How many games do the Angels win this year? 87
- Team HR for the season: 180
- Harden gets two more regular season starts -- IP/ER: 11.1/4
- Does Swisher reach the 100 RBI mark? yes
- Does any Athletic finish with a .300 or higher batting avg? yes
- Windsor or Komine get another start? no
- Lower ERA at the end of the season -- Duke or Kiko? Duke
- AL Central winner -- Twins or Tigers? TIGERS please please please please...

I remember that GOG!
Alien said that she would tally those scores separate from the other GOGs... so I'll keep that mind.
And yes, some of our predictions are very depressing. I picked Crosby to lead the A's in games played. Yikes. I won't even mention some of my other picks. <Covers face>
