Update through 2043.
San Diego Sharks went 99-63 in Diamond, which was the best record in a well-balanced league, but they were again knocked out in the playoffs and have reached their seventeenth straight Diamond season. Results look good so far, with a 17-9 record through Monday's games.
I feel like I'm running out of time, though, because the big spenders will hit those new Immortal Seasons missions hard. I'm now sitting on 76 incomplete missions, which is a high for this cycle and puts me in my league's lower half in terms of completed missions. Still, four months in Diamond is nothing to spit at for Free to Play, and I'm pretty satisfied with how I've moved and improved through this year's cycle.
Current San Diego lineup is Chipper Jones at DH, Mickey Mantle in left, Johnny Mize at first base, Josh Gibson behind the plate, Fred Lynn in center, Willie Wells at third, newly-acquired Larry Doby at second, Robin Yount at short, and Mookie Betts in right field. The bench is Bill Dickey, Tommy Harper, Pete Incaviglia, and Cristobal Torriente.
Pitching staff is Satchel Paige, Carl Hubbell, Max Sherzer, Johan Santana, and Bert Blyleven backed by a pen of Mickey Lolich, Robin Roberts, Don Newcombe, John Donaldson, Luis Tiant (Sr.), Kenley Jansen, Rube Foster, and Gus Weyhing.
My two other Diamond teams, Petrograd Soviet and Last Chance Texaco, are a bit over-matched at this level (both finished 74-88 last season) and are in ignore mode at the moment.
Wherever Whatevers cruised to another championship, this time at Silver level, with a record of 111-51, and are now in Gold .323.
Seventies Bombers, my theme team, won 113 games but were knocked out in the first round and are repeating Iron level this week.
