4 games vs Pontiac this week then 3 @ Cooperstown for a potential BOE matchup.


Hernandez has 0 IP despite having 2 starts. Got injured in both games. Medina got rocked, the other 3 did well. Fairweather was good minus 1 relief appearance.

[The Game]

Joe has a 14 game hitting streak going. Several of those Hits are as a PH.
Spear, Mighty Joe, Hal, Brett & bobby all did well this week. Juan, Anna, Kool & Tigger all struggled.


I might put Kool Kat down before September 1st and bring up Charles Neeley. Charles is only a DH/1b at this point but i would like Kool to play in the playoffs with Bespin.

[The Game]

4 games vs Firebirds
We are 9-4 vs Pontiac this season.


The Firebirds need a lot of help to be competitive next season. If they get back some of the injured players back and fill in some gaps they should be better. A rotation of Draco, Castro, Baker, Nucklos & A. Johnson could be solid. Land needs to develop into the power hitter everyone expects her to be and Katey Casey needs to be the player she was 2-3 years ago. Tipton & Bostic Jr are good. Canyon is a solid defensive C.

[The Game]

3 games @ Coopertstown.


After the Giants struggled last year to catch Paradise City, many feared what they could do this season and they were right. This lineup and staff is stacked with MVPs, John William Award winners and All Stars.
Either Charles Duggleby or Keith Wells will be the NL MVP this season. Duggleby has won it already. They signed LF Jerry Woodward to a 1 yr deal and he hit 73 HR with 174 RBI to win on of his 2 NL MVP awards while with the Cubs. They dont have a flaw of offense.Most hitters can hit for high average, they have 7 hitters with 20 or more HR and most can run. While they can surrender a good amount of runs at times, they have 5 superstar starters with the Walker brothers, Jon Duggleby, Dan Price Jr and recently acquired Richie Rich. Owen Wells is probably the best CL in the NL.

This is my 1st time coming to new Qwest Field in Cooperstown since they moved from Sony 30 miles away. What the ownership group of the Camero's have accomplished here is unheard of outside of the New York Yankees. the road to the bOE goes through Cooperstown in the NL and if we play them in a 7 game series it will be fun, tough and in some ways rewarding regardless of the outcome. No one hates Chuck D'Zinnik, Wilbur Duggleby, Tom Falcone, Jerome Smith, Eddie Skylar & Eric Williams. Most of my team are close friends with them along with the Walkers, Price, Wells, Swanson, etc.

[The Game]

3 games @ Springfield
We are 2-1 vs the Isotopes this season.


Springfield is still a fairly young team and they are competing for the AL Central crown. They have several good players injured. Offensively they are solid with DH Disanti, C Angelico, SS Brown & Cf Ingram. Their rotation is among the AL best with veteran Quintera, rookie Herman and veteran Scratchy with Peterson & Kelley. Their pen has workhorse LHP Louis Fuller and his 109 IP with no starts, CL Itchy and SU Ken Capelli.



2b Kool Kat was sent down to AAA to help them with the playoffs and I called up IF Charles Neeley. He may not play much but can still play all 4 IF spots and has some speed.
