Next sim, next Tuesday.
My team is odd. I'm first in extra base hits, but well below average in nearly every other offensive stat, despite four of my starters having OPS above 850, and four more above 730.
ReplyDeleteThe rotation is pretty solid, at least by my recent standards (Oh, where are you, Troy Nelson, Craig Barmore, Casey Plunk?) but my bullpen is a mess. Oddly, my bullpen ERA is lower than my starting ERA.
Anyway, I'm looking to move 1B Soriano for relief help. See the blog entry above this one.
10-4 Sim. No injuries in the entire organization. [Knocking on wood.] Good stuff. On May 7, Eugene Alustiza swatted a walk-off grand slam to lead the Monarchs to a 8-4 win over Houston. Nice clutch hitting there.
ReplyDeleteIt's a very weird year with the three divisions. All four Adams teams above .500 and the "bottom" teams in the Zotti League are each 20-22. But the new division, ugh.
