Well, this was an interesting week.
With the diamond and historical packs sale and the resulting influx of cheap historical diamonds in the auction house, the Gold leagues all became more challenging this week, so all three of my teams liquidated their reserve roster and inactive inventory and used the PP to add several players to their rosters.
The Cluckers added FOTF DiMaggio, FOTF Ripken, and FOTF Plank. The additions happened late in the season and were not enough to bring them to the playoffs, as they finished a few games out of the wildcard. They're now closing in on FOTF Price (and the AL East reward of FOTF Ted Williams), which should keep them ahead of the curve in Gold next season.
The Irregulars added FOTF Kaline, FOTF Larkin, FOTF Plank, and FOTF Thomas, but again, they completed this towards the end of the season. They were almost relegated to Silver! The team's rotation is still a bit weak, but the offense is solid and should hold up well in Gold next season. Next up is adding FOTF Feller.
Los Perros have been the strongest of the three teams so far, having reached Diamond more often than the others, though usually getting relegated after a season or two. They added FOTF Aaron, FOTF Alomar, FOTF Pudge, FOTF Fernandez (and the NL East reward of FOTF Spahn), and SE Gooden. The team lost its division in a game 163 matchup but steamrolled the competition in the playoffs for its second Gold championship. We'll see how they do in Diamond next year. They're hoping to add SE Jackie Robinson by the All Star Break.
