Sounds like the twilight zone, revmcgator! At any rate, I did update all three of my teams to include ziphbarrett on their friends' list. It looks like the interloper that stole your place are the Little Canada Walleyes, who used to be in the NFTP list several years back. It is possible that some teams might still have them friended.

Salem had a strong week last week - making it to the World Series and then going down. I'll take that...but there's room for improvement!
Over the weekend I managed to finish up all 5 of the Pirates collection (so, six if you count the collection of collection missions) and I've already done the Pirates live cards mission. So adding 4 new diamond cards to the team will (hopefully) have a big impact this season. Famous last words, eh?

The Woodinville Talent Thieves got promoted from Gold and will take a break from the OL league. They will try to get promoted to Perfect and battle some teams in the Wild West.

Good luck friends in Diamond and Perfect. We are getting closer to an all OL Perfect League. Knights and Mundys are getting a rude welcome to Perfect by being placed with Washington and Southern.

Are the 'keets a lefty team? Can't remember. If so, the anti-lefty Cottons could run us over.

Yup. Keets are all lefties in a lefty park. Yet, they completely stunk at home last year. Weird.

I suppose I'll track Gold B...the contestants there are...
Everett Silvertips Missouri Legends Nico-Nico Kneecappers Rockin' Robins Two in each conference...the schedule lined up perfectly, so everyone has 10 games. Nico-Nico Kneecappers will play the Rockin' Robins 6 times (3 home and away) Everett Silvertips will play the Missouri Legends 6 times (3 home and away) Nico-Nico Kneecappers will play the Everett Silvertips 4 times (2 home and away) Missouri Legends will play the Rockin' Robins 4 times (2 home and away) That will decide the Gold B crown.

but don't worry, they can always pull out the can o' whup-ass and beat up on Waffletown (but do it early... they seem to stabilize a bit mid season and then even out the ship by year end to a near-500 finish) |

So, a few right handed bats have been added to the lineup, some RHP arms have been moved to the starting rotation, pitch counts were removed that killed the team when playing all lefty teams in the playoffs, ballpark settings were changed to reflect a more balanced team, and Larry Bowa was finally kicked to the bench where he belongs. Time will tell whether this is a disaster or not. |

That said, it's hard as a righty team to slog through the RHP-favored starting pitching meta, though Cigar City has managed for a while. But righty teams and balanced teams both have the advantage of counterplay in the playoffs being much harder to pull off.

Schedule for OL S330
OOTP did its usual bang up job on the schedule and Friends List. I'll only comment on the one nit I've been meaning to pick. Their schedule balance is terrible. It's amazing how often teams who play each other 19 times have 10 of those games in a single month. I've done a lot of OL schedules and every season teams will not meet for three months and then play each other every other series. I seem to recall that the major league schedule was done by a few people with calculators into the 90's, at least. And they hey to factor in travel logistics. Ah well.

Ouch!
Just took my first looks at Port Ruppert and Asylum, and I think each team's promotion will be a mere one-season dalliance. The Mundys actually extended the Virginia Freeloaders to seven games in the Diamond world series to end 2042. It seems they'll be lucky to average 7 wins per month this year. Methinks Cy Young's POTY streak will be ending. It stands at 11, and there were rumors they might name the freakin' thing after him. The Denton True Trophy has a nice ring to it.
Asylum recently "earned" 250 PP for breaking a 10 game skid. I hope that's not a one-and-done reward. That could be their best chance at increasing the team coffers. The only upside is that they haven't started their real (as in OL) season yet. One interesting note about them last year. After the OL teams have no more potential games, I turn to getting the All Time Standings ready. Last night, while I was thus preoccupied, they beat some other team in the Gold World Series. Aside from the extra 1K, I was nonplussed. I realized I would have traded it for a hot streak that captured the OL crown instead. As OL-centric as my interest is, I was still somewhat surprised how at how nonchalant my reaction to it was. Enough of my rambling. Time to check out Terra Incognita. Good luck to all this year, though the teams with the Mundys and Keepers on the schedule won't need much, it appears. |

Very small sample size so far, but I think the Patriots are way out of their depth at diamond. No diamond+ pitchers and only one diamond player in general. As good as our hitters are, they will struggle against proper pitching.
Survival will take an act of RNGjesus...which means I'm pretty f***ed. Gold is my level until I get lucky on packs again (yeah, that won't happen for awhile)

I do like how you're ready to pounce when I make a bold prognostication. Sure wish you'd pounce on someone else though.
