The bank draft is coming via Pony Express. Should be there any month now.

I adhere to the barter system. I gave Filo my topps Will Clark rookie card and it bought me 5 months of freedom from his goons

Come on, MSG, you know the rules...

You start it, you maintain it...

As HORRIBLE a trip as that was, we are still sitting at 9-8 so far on the month. Pretty sure that eliminates Stokes from the running...

Not quite. We can still go 19 and (-8) the rest of May. I'd be golden!

13-11, with 4 to play...

As bad a month as it has been, we are still 2 over .500. And better than many of us expected coming into the month.

Perspective, people. Perspective.

Where we're really going to need perspective is after June. With all the road games, and our current injury and pitching woes, I have to think we'll probably go 12-14 or somesuch, and be 3-4 games out of first at the end of the month. We should make it back in July and August, but the :lm: gang will be annoying.

That AZ-Pitt-Atl road trip will be especially brutal.

as much as I agree with this .... it always seems that when we are facing a real bad situation we seem to always find a way to get past it ... it's the damn games/teams that I feel should do well agaisrt that things go south. Sort of like 7-2 with AZ/PITT/ATL then followed by 5-7 with SD/MIA/LA/COL

12-9 over that stretch? I'll take it all day!
That's a 92-93 win pace, which is about where we will end up.

So, MSG, now that we got your attention, are you going to summarize everyone's picks before the end of the month?

I didn't want to jinx it, figured I'd do so at the end...

Anything close to .500 would be wonderful.

I think I heard today that the Giants are near the bottom in road ERA, and that Pittsburgh is at the top in home ERA. Atlanta pitches well at home as well.

I think we gotta include the first game of today's doubleheader as the last game in May.

So we're at 14-13 with the one game left

I'm only doing this because I have some time, can't guarantee I'll do it for June until the end either

The picks were:

Stokes 28-0 (the anti Nolan)
sfsportsfan 18-10
MaysFan 17-11
tzill 16-12
Heathbar 15-12 with a rainout (got that part right!)
msg and Epic 15-13
calsnow 14-14
SFAnthem 13-15


msg and Epic win if the Giants win this first game, calsnow otherwise
