MLB 2011 Milestone Contest

[BBonds25]

This season, several players are going for some career milestones. In this contest, all you have to do is guess the date in which the player will reach their milestone. The member who comes closest to each date will win. In the case of a tie, the member with the first post will be the winner. The member who comes the closest to each milestone will win a card of that player.

Deadline for entry is Saturday, April 10 at midnite EST.

Here are the players/milestones to choose from:

Jeter's 3000th hit (reached July 9th) -- WINNER (BBONDS25)
Thome's 600th HR (reached August 15th) -- WINNER (ANDREWHOYA)
Rivera's 600th save (needs 41 more)

[stewart20rulz]

If I'm not mistaken, I tink UDECKCOLL was closest to the Jeter 3000 hit milestone with his guess:

Jeter's 3000th hit (needs 74 more hits) - JUNE 27 TH

[kyle12162000]

BBonds25 guessed July 2nd and maryvillereb2003 guessed July 1st

Both of these are closer

[stewart20rulz]

Thanks! I think I missed that entire page of postings. Looks like Brad (BBonds25) won that one. I think the next milestone to fall will be either Wakefield's 200th win or Thome's 600th HR. Good luck to everyone.



BBonds25 guessed July 2nd and maryvillereb2003 guessed July 1st

Both of these are closer

[BBonds25]

Cool, I actually won something.

[udeckcoll]

If I see this correctly , you won a card of that player and you are running the contest, hope you send something great to yourself,
congrats maybe you will send yourself an Derek Jeter Autograph.......

j/k - congrats , you did post your guesses on like April 10th or so, well done...

[stewart20rulz]

Thome's 600th was hit on August 15th!!! Has Wakefield won his 200th game yet? Congrats ANDREWHOYA (guessed August 17th)

[tk10775]

wakefield is one win away and his first chance is friday at kansas city, so i like his chances

[stewart20rulz]

Thanks for the info. Looks like you have a pretty good shot at winning that category with a guess of August 19th


wakefield is one win away and his first chance is friday at kansas city, so i like his chances

[andrewhoya]

I'd like to donate my card for a future contest/giveaway.

Andrew

[andrewhoya]

Wow, looking at the entries, only udeckcoll and I were even relatively close to Thome.

[tk10775]

the funny thing is i didnt even realized i had that date picked until you told me. now i have to watch that game on friday and root for wakefield.




Thanks for the info. Looks like you have a pretty good shot at winning that category with a guess of August 19th

[tk10775]

damm they pushed back wakefield's start until saturday.

[tk10775]

looks like we had to milestones met tonight. wakefield after 8 tries finally got win #200 and Mariano Rivera got save number 600. congrats to them both. from looking over stuff it looks like udeckcoll was closest with wakefield and spoodini was closest with MO

[udeckcoll]

coll I thought I was rooting for Wakefield, I looked through too....

[tk10775]

i dont see any of the other milestones being hit this season. damm i was hoping to hit on one of them.
