Join The 6th Annual TGP Mega Prediction Game


It's Opening Day and that means that we are doing the 6th annual Mega Prediction Game here on the blog. I personally have won twice and lost the lead on the last series of the season last year to our now three time champion and writer dm23HOF. I am personally looking to settle the score but this game is so much fun with more participants. It's free to join, it's fun, there is no commitment, and there may be a prize depending on how my finances look around September/October.

Before you make a decision look at the rules and see how easy it is to play and to win:

Here are the rules :

You will predict the outcome of every game one series at a time. You will predict whether the Yankees will win or lose the game but will also wager a point amount determined by how many games are in the series. If there is a three game series , like the one starting tomorrow, you will be able to wage a 3 Pt, a 2Pt, and a 1 Pt game. In a four game series you will see a 4 Pt game added. For example:

4/1/14 - 4/3/14 New York Yankees @ Houston Astros

Game 1 Win - 3 Pts
Game 2 Win - 2 Pts
Game 3 Win - 1 Pt

All predictions must be submitted in the comment box, on twitter @GreedyStripes, or via email at The Greedy Pinstripes BEFORE the first pitch of the game. If it is not predicted before the first pitch of the game then you are penalized your highest point game. If you were to miss the prediction then you would only be allowed your two lowest wagers. There is no minimum so even if you miss two games and want to wager 1 point on the third game then that is perfectly fine. See example:


4/1/14 - 4/3/14  New York Yankees @ Houston Astros

Game 1 MISSED 
Game 2 Win - 1 Pt
Game 3 Win - 2 Pts 

Tie breakers will be whoever predicts the most perfect series meaning who gets the most series predicted correctly. If there is still not a winner then we will use the playoffs as a tie breaker. You MUST be a registered user to use the comment box to play the game. No anonymous users will be counted in our tallies or be eligible for the prize, although you can still play for fun if you would like.

    1. We did this on a forum that I ran for four years before we made the blog. That's where I met both of the Bryan's and we hatched the idea for the blog.
