2012 W-L Contest Entries

Here are the entries for the 2012 W-L Contest.

The prize is a copy of Fenway Park: A Salute to the Coolest, Cruelest, Longest-Running Major League Baseball Stadium in America (Running Press), by John Powers and Ron Driscoll.

Even after a (long) less-than-lovely winter and the gloom and doom propagated by some members of the media that the Red Sox seemingly will be lucky to fight off the Blue Jays for third place, the entries are pretty much in line with what they have been for the last few years.
