Darn cross East River bias from Zev... Miami is up by 14 games over Houston AND New York!
ReplyDeleteLooks like three teams in the Zotti fighting for two playoff berths. Game on!
ReplyDeleteMiami? :)
ReplyDeleteZev, is the next sim through the end of July, or mid-August? I ask because I have a key player with one day left on the DL, and he would've been activated had this last sim ended on the 31st of July, rather than the 30th (due to the 14, not 15 day, sim).
ReplyDeleteIf it is through mid-August, then I hope you let teams give you instructions for actions to take on the 31st of July, such as post-trade roster moves.
Thanks, and go Scorps!
Not sure what is up with the Steamers. I think that SP does have some to do with it. The Loss of Turner to FA last season who was 24-10 in his year and a half with the Steamers was huge. That along with the second sesason ending injury for former prospect Gerth in three seasons really has put a dent in my pitching.
ReplyDeleteI still think this team is better than it is letting on and have faith they can atleast make a respectable showing in the second half and put themselves in a good position for 2018.
