The Board Results are in it is now time to honor your financial commitment and get with the proper parties in a timely manner and pay up. In total we had 10 wagers put on the board. 9 on draft day and one about midway through the season when Ev Lemaster was fueled by his passion of Carlos Beltran and my criticisms of Beltran's status in the game.
Bopp vs. Burt
Three wagers were placed between the two and much like their Head to Head battles all went the Commish's way.
1. Manny Ramirez Over/Under Slash Line. Needless to say a retirement two weeks into the season brings me a W and $20.
2. Cliff Lee vs. Roy Halladay. Best Of 5 stats. QS was a push however Lee edged Halladay in K's, WHIP, and K/9. Commish wins $10.
3. Bud Norris vs. Mike Minor. Norris did simmer down the stretch however his production by the All Star break was more than enough to coast to a W and another $20.
Total Owed= $50.00
Fenney vs. Coleman
Eager to put Fenney's name on the board I put faith in Grady Sizemore remaining somewhat healthy big mistake on my part.
1. Grady Sizemore Over/Under 450AB's. Sizemore managed about 280 AB's or so forcing $5 out of the Commish's 2011 salary.
Total Owed= $5.00
Coleman vs. Coleman
No financial commitment here the loser simply had to pack their belongings and find another place of residence.
Castro vs. Ian Desmond Best of 6 stats. Castro edged Desmond in AVG, OPS,RBI and Runs.
Given the high cost of the contractual buyout of a marriage license I have dedicded to nullify this wager.
Total Owed= $0
Hardy vs. Coleman
Not only has my continued royalty with Ricky Nolasco's skill set cost me two seasons of a 4+ ERA and countless 8 runs outburst in 2IP it has now cost me $20.
Nolasco vs. Garza Best of 5. Garza wins with ease.
Total Owed= $20.00
Todd vs. Coleman
Quite simple wager Todd to exception to my prognostication of Jay Bruce becoming a hitter with a AVG over .270. I took exception to Whitley taking exception to something I felt strongly about.
Jay Bruce managed to fall apart the last month of the season with a AVG of .271 to begin the month. Bruce hit somewhere in the high .250's
Total Owed= $30.00
Butch vs. Coleman
Who knew Carlos Beltran was such a lightning rod within the 64/60. This wager came about when I criticized Lemasters acquisition of Beltran in one of his many midseason deals. in which Lemaster sent in part, Carlos Pena, to Ward for Beltran.
Beltran vs. Pena from June 6th untill end of season best of 3 between HR/RBI/Runs
Beltran 13/50/48 Pena 20/53/49. Another winner for me.
Total Owed= $20.00
Lee vs. GRC3
The simplest wager on the board. I'm Better than you are bet. Chris Lee wins in the final two weeks of the season.
Total Owed= $20.00
Barker/Bowe vs. Whithley
Following the GRC3 and Bopp's lead these two rivals put money of self pride. Barker and Bowe ran away with this around the All Star break.
Total Owed= $10.00

Yeah I will pay up, I also owe u for fantasy football, I will get it to you soon!
You'll see nothing for the Manny bet.
You thought Manny wasn't capable of producing those stats over a season and I disagreed. I dare say neither of us envisioned Manny retiring 8 days into the season....Claiming victory under those circumstances is pretty weak......It clearly goes against the premise of the original wager.
You can have the other two......but you'll have to collect the other 20 from Manny himself if you ever want to see it.
How do you get that I didn't win the wager. Numbers were set based on what production you felt he would have over the season. I felt your numbers were incorrect. I challenged you, you accepted. Manny's season totals fell below the baseline established. I win the bet that simple.

Good Luck!
I agree with Lee. Manny didn't play the entire season so the bet is null as the conditions were met to qualify the bet.
Same story with Pedro Alvarez. The bet would have been null because he got injured.
Thanks,
Jesse
Excuse me, conditions weren't met to qualify the bet.
