Player of the month - Paulie

Germaniac · 05-04-2019, 02:41 AM

13-14 in August

Germaniac · 05-05-2019, 04:28 AM

17-9 in September plus winning both October games and going to the play-offs

Germaniac · 05-05-2019, 05:06 AM

Plenty of achievements in September, including a 9-hit inning that brought 400 PP's, a 96-pitch "Maddux"-shutout by Ben Sheets for another 400 PP's and a player of the month

Not surprisingly the season is over

Germaniac · 05-06-2019, 12:49 AM

A surprising trip to the play-offs and an MVP

Germaniac · 05-07-2019, 12:43 AM

No-No by Sale

12-11 in July

13-9 so far in August and 1.5 GB for the final wild-card spot

Germaniac · 05-11-2019, 12:03 AM

EDIT: half a game behind the final wild-card spot

Germaniac · 05-12-2019, 01:55 AM

A no-no for Hal White

Germaniac · 05-12-2019, 01:56 AM

And another one for Lefty

Germaniac · 05-12-2019, 01:57 AM

12-16 down the road to finish 5 games out of the final wild-card spot

Germaniac · 05-13-2019, 05:03 PM

After another middle-of-the-road season I decided to make a few changes ...

Gone are Lou Gehrig (Peak), Billy Pierce (All-Star), Corey Kluber (Live), Gerrit Cole (Live) and Cody Bellinger (Live) for a total of 119,500 ./. 10% = 107,550

Taking their spots are Patrick Corbin (Live), Jim Palmer (All-Star), Hal White (Rookie Sensation) Hank Aaron (All-Star) and Lou Gehrig (Record Breaker) for a total of 18,172

A difference of 89,378 PP's ... and all my new team has done is start 10-1

Hoping to continue this run I added three new pitchers in addition to "my" Brewers Ben Sheets and Cal Eldred:
