A nice season for the AA, the league has found its footing and is a solid viable, competitive league with a great fanbase.
St. Louis - Charles Comiskey has a good team that just needed solid leadership. The offense scores funs and they found a pitching duo that stopped all comers this season in Dave Foutz and Bob Caruthers.
Cincinnati - Again, another season where they got going too late. May and June had some pretty uneven play and then things fell into place. Problem was St. Louis already had a lead and Cincy couldn't beat them.
Philadelphia - Trying to repeat their 1884 success was elusive. Bobby Mathews was shut down from most of the year, but when he came back, they became a tough team to beat. Without him they had problems finding consistent pitching.
Pittsburgh - Finishing one game under .500 was a big step forward. The team raided the old Columbus roster and Ed Morris, Fred Mann, Tom Brown and Bill Kuehne look to have the Alleghenys moving forward.
Louisville - Played well for three months, then kind of trailed off. they have a solid lineup and Guy Hecker on the mound but need more consistency from him. Young man, Toad Ramsey, came up late and looked really good on the mound
Brooklyn - New ownership, but the same results. The team has a few players who could be stars (Adonis Terry, Germany Smith), but can't seem to put it together.
New York - John Day took Tim Keefe away from this team and it showed. They tumbled down the standings. So much so Day is selling the team to focus on the NL Giants.
Baltimore - This team has a lineup that's just not good and this past season was a turnstile of roster moves to improve. Spoiler: it didn't help.
