Now, it gets interesting... 10-4 so far this month, with rookie hurler John Kautz pitching his way into both Rookie of the Year and Cy Young consideration and several hot hitting prospects getting the call to the Scorpion Pit this summer, baseball is back in Los Angeles!
ReplyDeleteMan, my team sucks this year.
ReplyDeleteIs there an option to vote a division winner off the island and put another worthy team into the playoffs?
ReplyDeleteOn a side note, Scott Boras asked me to make sure everyone saw that Seattle outfielder David Kerry hit six home runs in a week and now leads the league in that category. After he turns down his player option this fall, he'll be headed to a free agent market near you.
I'd definitely vote Seattle off the island.
ReplyDeleteMe, too. Sounds like a plan.
ReplyDeleteIn unsurprising news my winning percentage stopped climbing this sim. I still think it's unsustainable.
Villatoro upped his game and now has 17 wins and my manager thinks he's my #2 starter. On pace for 28 wins now that will put him at 188 at the end of this season and his age-29 year. I think it's safe to say he's on the way to his 5th Pitcher of the Year award.
Wins aren't all that matters, Nate. Mr. Placencia may have quite a bit to say about who wins the Pitcher of the Year Award.
