2011 GOG #26 - Goin' back home (answers posted)

by GoAs on Jun 23, 2011 11:25 PM PDT

1. 2-1 Phillies [3 points]

2. WPA... Best: Roy Halladay (+.443) / Worst: ~~Angel Campos~~ Josh Outman (-.093) [2 points each]

3. 6+ hits: Both / HR: Hamels / 3+ BB: Neither / Better ERA: Halladay (2.40 vs 2.49) [2 points each]

4. Carter... AB: 0 / H: 0 / XBH: 0 / BB: 0 [2 points each]

5. Pitchers... H: 0 / K: 4 / BB: 0 / RBI: 0 / K Looking: 0 (I'm not counting Cahill's missed bunt) [2 points each]

6. Howard... RBI: 0 / 2B: 0 / HR: 0 / [2 points each]

7. Gold... Wear 2; Won 1 [1 point each]

Had to throw this one out fairly quick, but here goes...

The Questions

1. Series outcome (3 games) [3 points]

2. Starz and Goatz: Taking the hill. Which starting pitchers will have the best and worst single game WPA? (one answer for each) [2 points each; 4 total]

3. Speaking of starters, the A's are lucky enough to face Cole Hamels and Roy Halladay for the weekend games. Shockingly enough, they are both 9-3 with a 2.51 ERA. For each, answer: both, neither, Hamels, or Halladay [2 points each; 8 total]:

Gives up 6 or more hits

A's hit a home run against

Walks 3 or more

Has the better ERA after the series (Hamels, Halladay, or still tied)

4. So I went to the Rivercats/Padres game Wednesday and was wondering where Chris Carter was. Found him! Predict Carter's AB/H/XBH/BB [2 points each; 8 total]

5. The pitchers get to borrow someone else's bat and dig in. For the A's combined pitching staff, predict (while batting): H/K/BB/RBI. How many times do A's pitchers strike out looking? [2 points each; 10 total]

6. Ryan Howard is still a stud. He is 2nd in the NL in RBIs, and leads the Phillies in doubles and home runs. So how many RBIs, doubles, and home runs for the big first baseman? [2 points each; 6 total]

7. Obligatory gold jersey question: How many games do the A's wear gold? How many games do they win in the gold jerseys? [1 point each; 2 total]
