September started with a few callups in addition to activating RF Kirilloff, SS Flores, and CF Williams.
The Expos won the remaining game against Atlanta, 2 of 3 versus Toronto, 3 of 4 versus San Diego, and 2 of 3 versus the Dodgers. At this point SS Flores suffered another injury putting him out for three weeks, and C Barfield will miss the rest of the season, though his injury is only for 4-5 weeks.
The week concluded with the Expos winning 1 of 3 versus the Cardinals, 2 of 3 versus the Reds, and 3B Arreola taking home the NL player of the week award.
The Expos won 2 of 3 versus the Marlins before crashing just ahead of the finish line. The Expos won 1 of 3 versus the Phillies, were swept in a five game set with the Pirates, and won 1 of 3 versus the Mets.
For the month, this totals a 15-16 record, and it puts the Expos at an even 81-81 for the season.
The batters performed as follows:
The batting performances were pretty underwhelming for the month with LF Sera the best of the bunch.
And the pitchers:
SP Dobashi had an incredible month (38 IP, 1.66 ERA, 3.67 FIP). On the other end of the spectrum, SP Killough had a very rough month as he encountered his first struggles in the majors.
Without a postseason berth, next up will be a the Expos' season recap...
