Baltimore Barons (PT+)
Diamond 350, 81-81, Wildcard
Will stay in Diamond due to no promotions this week.
5 Perfects, Jacob deGrom (8-10, 5.44 ERA), Justin Verlander (8-16, 5.32), Edwin Diaz (5-4-13, 3.14 ERA), Ken Caminiti (.245, 17 HR), and Carlos Correa (.253, 19 HR)

FROM - 4 Perfects, 19 Diamonds, 3 Gold
TO - 5 Perfects, 20 Diamonds, 1 Silver (78 Jackie Robinson)

Improved team enough to keep them competitive. Playing .500 in Diamond in Week #6 is a dream for me.



Cleveland Commodores (F2P)
Iron 188, 88-74,Wildcard
Might be promoted to Bronze...
1 Perfects, Aaron Judge (.269, 38 HR)

FROM - 2 Perfects, 8 Diamonds, 13 Golds, 3 Silvers
TO - 1 Perfect, 17 Diamonds, 8 Gold (Julio Rodriguez lost his 100 rating)

Was able to add 8 Diamonds to team, but was chasing the rest of the hive all season. Pulling Aaron Judge was a miracle, but I'm going to need more lucky pulls to move this team up any faster.



Akron Aeros (F2P)
Diamond 364, 60-102
Relegated back to Gold

3 Perfects, Tim Raines (.267, 8 HR), Freddie Freeman (.296, 13 HR), and Ronald Acuna Jr. (.239, 19 HR)

FROM - 1 Perfect, 13 Diamonds, 12 Golds
TO - 3 Perfects, 22 Diamonds, 1 Gold

Did my best to improve team enough to stay in Diamond, but was lucky to get there last week and was outpaced by most other teams this week. Team should, however, perform well in Gold.

Update to come later...

Quito Mosquitos
Gold season 2: 101-61 1st place; 2nd playoff seed
Promotion to Diamond guaranteed.

Cleveland Locomotives
Stone season 1: 99-63 1st place; 1st playoff seed
Promotion to Iron guaranteed.

I opted to open this team to playing in daily tournaments, just in case I run into one--and I did. Drew 2 perfects during the week out of just 13 packs. Fidyrch and live Ohtani. Eric Thames was the most valuable pull and also Brian Giles. Team at 2 perfects, 3 diamond, and the rest gold.



Tale of the Tape: Bent but didn't break.

The Coney Island Warriors are back for their sixth season. This is their 3rd season in PT 24 and the first where I made changes from the entry league team I started with.

They finished 80-82 in Iron, but were 12 games over .500 from July on as I started flipping the roster. By the end of this season they are comprised of 26 historical gold cards. I am planning on giving the team as it is currently constituted a couple of weeks before I look to make any changes.

I am just opening packs I get from tournaments/log in rewards and selling what I don't intend to use and not looking to complete and missions. It will be a slow play.
