It’s time for the Mr. Octobers of Yesterday!

What are the Mr. Octobers of Yesterday? Simple, for each postseason game (not day), there will be a Mr. October pitcher and a Mr. October position player. They will be awarded points based on the round and situation:

  • 1 for Wild Card Game
  • 3 for LDS (6 if a Game 5)
  • 5 for a LCS (10 if a Game 7)
  • 10 for a World Series (20 if a Game 7)

At the end of the postseason, the ones with the most will be the MR. OCTOBER of 2015.

So, for example, the Mr. Octobers of last night were Dallas Keuchel (pitcher) and Colby Rasmus (position player). So they each get one point to start.

Standings so far (PP= Position Player, P= Pitcher, * means eliminated from playoffs):

P Dallas Keuchel 1

PP Colby Rasmus 1

Here’s how it goes: instead of going by day, we’re going by game. Each game will have an MVP position player and an MVP pitcher. The amount of points given are as so: the MVPs of a Wild Card game get one point, MVPs of an LDS game get three points, MVPs of a LCS game get five points, and MVPs of World Series games get ten points. Points are doubled if it’s in a Game 5 in the LDS or Game 7 of the LCS or WS.

So, last night’s Mister Octobers were position player Brandon Moss (despite losing, he was clearly the best offensive player of the game) and young Brandon Finnegan, who’s extra-innings pitching were a revelation.

Standings so far (PP= Position Player, P= Pitcher, * means eliminated from playoffs):

PP Brandon Moss 1*

P Brandon Finnegan
