All 5 SP were great this week. Fairweather, Buffalo & Bill struggled a bit.

[The Game]

Almost everyone had a good week offesively but I am glad that Arvid might have finally broken out of his slump. he hasnt taken to be a bench player very well.


Mike Jackman is on a rehab at Middleton for up to 30 days. I hope to have him back around June 10th.

[The Game]

3 games vs Bounty Hunters


i have not played vs To Kieren in a long time it seems. They are wearing their camo jerseys. We will wear our Memorial day jerseys.


They have changed the look of their team this year. Both Cunningham & Woodward give them a ton of power in the middle of the lineup. Onyx looks good so far in his young career. Their rotation is good but not great and they are not great on the pen.

[The Game]

21-7 in May, 34-16 overall.


We came close to where i wanted to be in thanks to a current 8 game winning streak to close out the month. Willowbrook is right on our heels. I'm really happy overall with the offense, defense and pitching. Since moving Anna to Lf, she has only committed 1 E and that was at SS. Young had his 1st E since early April. Tugger settled down the last 3 weeks. Juan still is without an E at 3b. Not many teams run on my C but we are not great at throwing runners out. Rotation is fabulous. Pen is good but not yet great.



7 of the 9 teams we see in June are above .500. We play 9 games at home and 16 Away. The schedule looks like to will benefit us in the 2nd half with a ton of home games. We have many off days this month, so I will skip either Medina or Stupec often this month. I will not use Medina in the rotation until the 10th, then depending on how well that start goes and how well Stupec pitched,1 will get skipped again until the 25th.


Club, Novo & Toiguchi are struggling as far as OPPAVG right now.

[The Game]

Offensively we are good for the most part. We still struggle vs LHP namely Cottoneye & Arvid. Harris is ok vs LHP but not great vs RHP. Kat isnt great vs LHP either.



Mighty Joe Young was named AL BOTM and lead our team with a 2 WAR. Other than Bobby & Arvid, although arvid seems to have broken out of his slump, I can not complain about anyone else.


Novo & Fairweather both struggled this month. Novo is in danger of being traded along with Arvid & Bobby.

[The Game]

No complaints on D other than TO% but few teams have run on us and very few SB have hurt us.


Team chemistry is great.


If i do make a move, Li will come up as DH most likely. none of he IF at AAA are ready and the ones with ML exp will not make an impact. Russell, Milton & Ruiz might be stuck at AAA until September.

[The Game]

Rocky Top Rockies sign CL Robert Cooke to a 2 yr extension.

[The Game]

3 games @ Anderson.


The Ravens are the defending Battle of Endor champs. The road for us to get to the BOE goes through them. Great team overall. Their offense is top to middle of the pack but their pitching is among the best.


The Joker gives them an innings eater, Sam malone is their ace. Orendor is the AL MVP.
