Prognostikeggers 2012 - Week 8: Brewers @ Dodgers

Yovani Gallardo is scoreboard watching because the first part of the Prognostikeggers season is nearing an end.
Yovani Gallardo is scoreboard watching because the first part of the Prognostikeggers season is nearing an end.

Here it is, the last week of the first part of the season.

Back in Week 7, Bush League All Star held up his lead to take a share of the lead for week 7. Joining him is MichaelE1, who put together a few good days to catch up to the lead. This was Bush League All Star's first weekly win, and it was MichaelE1's second week winning. Looking to the overall standings, unless there's a big shift over the last week, it looks like the top two spots in the overall standings are locked up, with icecreamman at #1 and aaronetc at #2. The #3 spot is still up for grabs, with three people (MichaelE1, Dulzy, texwestern) competing for that position. Will all of that hold, or will someone else come up and make a last-minute push?

Seven games remain, starting with four against the Dodgers. Get your predictions in and make your final push. Let's finish the first part of the season on a high note.

Note: On the forms, I added an "other" selection for MVP. Because of the constant state of flux of the roster, it seemed appropriate to add. If you decide to use the other selection, please mark in the bonus section who your choice is for MVP in addition to your bonus prediction.

Extra Prediction for the Series: For this series, predict the total number of total bases that the Brewers have as a team. To figure out total bases, singles are worth one base, doubles are worth two, triples are worth three, and home runs are worth four. If you are within three total bases of the actual total, you will get one point. If you are exact, you will get two points.
