Cuban Winter League: Week 11

Short post today, but it was an awful end to the season for Santa Clara, who dropped 11 of their last 14 games to fall to a tie for last with the Matanzas Buccaneers. I'm really not sure what went wrong, but the Blues three aces didn't quite dominate, and now only Zane Kelley comes home to join the team early March in Florida. With the season over, no need to cover anyone specifically, and I'll instead hand out awards for the team like I did last year. It may not come tomorrow, as I'll be pretty busy, but I'll have a few things out before the spring. There's plenty of excitement in the air for the start of the 50s, and as dumb and as played out as it sounds. I think this is it. This is the year. I truly can't remember the last time I've been this confident in a Cougars team. But I think this team will get it done. It's probably the best constructed team since the one in the early 1930s, that would have been a dynasty if Tommy Wilcox didn't get hurt or I never traded the Barrell battery in the first place.

Though we all know what happened then. The unexpected hit and all we could do is watch. Kind of like the last few seasons. But it won't stop the excitement from getting up!
