[The Game]

4 games @ Willowbrook.


The Warriors, thankfully are off to a poor start but we dont matchup very well vs them and I am not yet sure if the changes I made helped clear that up.Most of my lineup has poor success vs Flintestobne-Rubble, Self & Frog. Young, Kat, Tugger, Hoffman & Kournikova have limited PT vs them.

They added 1b Wyatt Earp & DH Tom Patty in the offseason. Both are solid veterans. Orban takes over as CL and so far their bullpen is lights out. As i said before, I dont see us winning 116 games, so I see them as the AL Wildcard team no more than 5 games behind us. would be nice to take 3 of 4 from them but I'll be happy with a split. Nesta is getting skipped in the rotation but will come in relief for Medina, at least for an inning.

[The Game]

13-9 in April.

Not the record I wanted but it is still good enough to lead the AL East. I would love for us to figure out how to beat Willowbrook this season. We were leading the 1st 2 games until the bullpen collapsed and we had no shot in Game 4.

Lurte is DtD and might miss his next start. With Nesta gone, I can now see what Bill Stupec can do. If he struggles i might put Fairweather into the rotation. FW is the only P i have that i know can give me a CG almost every time out. I dont have too many bad things to say about my pitching staff. i know at times people will struggle but no one currently on the staff has struggled consistently.
Offensively i am changing up the lineup a bit. Hoffman will no longer start vs RHP unless Cain needs a day off but she will platoon with him vs LHP getting the starting nod.
Anna moves to DH vs RHP and will platoon at DH and LF with Joe Cottoneye

[The Game]

Hoffman, Tugger, Anna & Hal are all in a platoon vs LHP.


I'm a bit concerned with our 4-9 record vs LHP but i do have many LHB.


The offense has yet to hit it's stride, right now we are middle of the pack in the AL offensively.


We play 16 road games and 12 home games in May. Most of the teams we should do well against. The key series this month are against Metropolis, Atlantis, Endor City & Pontiac.


I am hoping for 19-9.


Anna, Mighty Joe, Tigger, Rum Tum & Joe all did well in April.
