PrintAll right Rowbots, it is the 25th and final week of the PRPC! Last chance to overtake me for the PRPC full season and second half titles (though it will take an epic week to do so.
The Rockies went 3-3 last week, keeping scores fairly low once again (several tied with nine points). This week, Colorado has three at home against Milwaukee and then travels to LA for their final series. Jason Marquis will go twice in this final week.
Here is the starting pitching slate for Week 25.

I've considered it, but there aren't enough games to make it worthwhile.

Maybe a slightly different format?
Instead of picking individual games, we can pick the result of each series. For example, “PHI def. LAD in 5 games.”
…but even that might not be worthwhile. Kinda scraping the bottom of the barrel, eh?

We'll have a playoff prediction thread that isn't related to this competition...
but it won’t be scored or anything.

Gladly sharing a name with Dexter Fowler!
But only one start
would make it seem like a fluke. He needs to do this (or similar) in both starts.

Eh true
Let’s say…7 innings in the other start as well.

I think
it would be sweet to clinch at home but if we are unable to do that then celebrating something at Dodgers Stadium this year would be awesome as well.

We would have to gain a game on Atlanta by Friday night for that to happen
There’s no guarantee we’ll do that even if we go 4-0…sigh….die Braves…die…
