No. Pick deadlines for Entertainment-Only MLB contests are automatically set and cannot be customized by commissioners.
How Pick Deadlines Work
Pick deadlines are tied to the start time of the first game in each weekly slate.
Once that first game begins, all picks for that slate are locked.
Commissioners cannot manually override or adjust these deadlines.
Heads Up
On certain days—especially Mondays—MLB may schedule early afternoon games.
This means the pick deadline can be as early as 1:30 PM ET.
We recommend reminding participants to submit their picks ahead of time to avoid missing the deadline.
