Got a little frustrated with myself and took a mini-break after that diamond pack debacle.

But after the dust settled and I sold off everything, I ended up with enough PP to make some impact moves. I finally got that 95 Charlie Gehringer I had my eyes on for so long, for about 25k. Also, last night I managed to snag a really nice bargain (I think) and picked up 96 Ty Cob for only 52k to replace Gwynn at DH. It was one of those auctions that ended in the middle of the night so I was a bit fortunate to get that deal.

So now for the first time ever I have an actual premium base-stealer on the SmallBallers. He's got the on-base skills vs RHP to maximize that speed. It's nice to know I won't have to worry about my leadoff spot ever again.

All three teams have a chance to make the playoffs this week, as of now. The SmallBallers are a lock, with a 12 game division lead. The SaberCats have a decent wild card lead, with 82% playoff odds at the moment, and just 1.5 back in the division. Last week they missed the playoffs by just 1 game. The Balancers are still nowhere near a GOOD team, but they were placed in a horrible division and so they actually have a shot. Currently 75% playoff odds...but I wouldn't be surprised if they falter. Their run differential is -14 on the season.
