The majority of our top pitchers are having "issues" and all of my big bats decided to take the season off, all at the same time.
If nothing changes, it will be a long week!

I think I discovered the problem.... instead of the usual supply of bats from the Louisville Slugger company, Waffletown was mistakenly sent pool noodles (which accounts for their inability to hit the ball this season).... combine that with the pitching staff, who are trying a radical new pitching style: asking the opposing batter where they want the ball and tossing it in underhand.... makes for a losing combination
might need a team meeting to rethink things.
(gotta say, the temptation to ignore the pre-ww2 restriction and bring aboard Ichiro and Bagwell is growing larger after each dismal game we play)
edit: hey hey! Syrups are out of the basement! (probably temporary, but savor the little victories
