I've been so busy with work all week, I decided not to check in on my Raccoons until today so I wouldn't be distracted. As expected, they finished 2nd to the Scottsdale Scorpions who won 123 games. We won 111 and went 9-14 vs the Scorpions in a 20 team league.
For the playoffs, I decided to go with those who had a great year as opposed to those with the best ratings and it's paying off so far. So far in the playoffs, the pitching has been great. We swept a really good team, the Malibu Waverunners (112 W) in the division round, outscoring them 21-2. In the LCS so far, we're ahead of the Scorpions, 3-0, outscoring them 17-5 which is quite the shock.
The upcoming game looks lie a bit of a mismatch with Clarkson (who didn't have a such a good year) against Pedro. Having a team this good down 3-0 doesn't make me feel that confident, but hopefully we'll hang on and go to the WS. If we make it that far, we'll have yet another tough opponent (+397 RDiff) called the DownEast Quack_Quack MuddaFly. Some of these team names...
Good luck to everyone lucky enough to still be in the hunt!
