Probably going to need 20 wins to get the job done. A tall order, but not out of the realm of possibility.

The Hoboken Zephyrs sit at 71-63 in P405, just a half game out of the division lead thanks to a recent 3-game sweep of the division leader and 1 game back of the WC. They're gonna have a tough go this last month of the season, playing most of their games against teams at or above .500.

Instead of the 20 wins they needed, the Pack Rats managed to put up 21 losses in September, including 10 in a row. Fortunately they will be sticking around in Diamond for another season.

The Zephyrs took their division in P405 with an 88-74 record and earned their first Perfect playoff berth. OVR 78 Keith Hernandez won the batting title hitting .324. Opened a couple of packs and pulled a Diamond Corey Kluber, which quickly sold for way too many PP. Gonna wait to go back to the pack well I think.

Fighting Saints up 2-1 in the ALCS against the Fort Worth Cats in P413.

I had a worst case scenario in the P410 NC divisional and my Gold and Blue Gryphons matched up. The Blues are the stronger team on paper, which is of course why the Golds won.

The Zephyrs lost 3-1in the DS, despite a favorable matchup on paper. Oh well...

Game 7 - Saints versus Cats - Kevin Brown 97 versus Kevin Brown 97......yup - same pitchers dueling it seems.

My Loose Cannons are back in the Diamond WS so it looks like another trip to Perfect Level for a week or two.

Sabah Rhinos pulled a "Milwaukee Bucks" on the Silver sub-league series, going 2-0 then lost 2-4. One good news for the week was Aaron Nola finally not being disappointing for a season. In his best season for the team, he was 2nd of AC PotY with 2.96 ERA(best of AC), 21-5 and 4.8 WAR.

8 packs and the best was a Silver not helping to the team.

------------------------------------------------

Sabah Bisons struggled in their first season in Silver and was one game away from relegation. To improve, I would have to pull solid pitchers from the pack.

Opening 6 packs, only 2 Silvers and nothing above. Only useful one was 75 Ryan Pressly and that's only because my pitchers are horrible.

------------------------------------------------

Sabah Ninjas continued to improve since its establishment three weeks ago. 65 wins to 75 wins and now 86 wins. The only worthy pull last season was 94 Aaron Judge, guess he's worth 11 wins -- dude has 4.3 WAR though if we are being technical.

Among the 5 packs, notable players are 87 Will Smith and 89 James Paxton. I already got a James Paxton on another team so I am thinking about inventing a house rule of allowing myself to turn him into the AH and get a different gold SP.
