This thread will be the ultimate delight for all you Yankee fans.
There are three choices in this year’s Dinger Whiff Derby. Until opening day you may choose any of the three choices
1. Giancarlo Stanton
2. Aaron Judge
3. The Field (meaning anyone else on any major league team who scores higher will win for The Field)
The rules
1. Each entrant gets 4 points for each regular season home run.
2. Each entrant gets -1 point for each regular season strike out.
3. The highest total by a single player at the end of the season is the winner.
4. To enter the
sweepstakes contest, simply guess the winning player in the Dinger Whiff derby and his winning Dinger Whiff number at season's end.
A prize to be determined related to the winning player will be awarded. To qualify for the prize you must guess both the player and the number on the nose.
The deadline for sweepstakes entries shall be the
"All-Star Game break".
You may make a single revision of your entry until
September 1 to change the Dinger Whiff number, but not the player.
The Scoreboard below will be updated periodically during the season. If I am incorrect about the leader in the Field, please let me know.
