I'd take SE Ozzie over hof Jeter at the highest level. His defense is weak and all the best SP are righties. The only times I've seen that Jeter are as a 2B platoon or utility IF.

The game engine loves a hitter with ozzies high contact low power. Watch him slash 300/380/420 every season

Taking on Bailey's Hamtramck Tigers in the P436 League Championship Series. Both of us are coming off 5-game Division Series' wins.

Izz · 08-30-2020, 08:06 PM

It took 7 games, the last 4 all decided by 1 run, but the 'Glou have defeated the Hamtramck Tigers to progress to the World Series!

The Chicago Whales (who aren't quite the whales the name would imply but are a good team nonetheless) await. Whoever wins will be taking home their first Perfect Level Championship.

Izz · 08-31-2020, 12:40 AM

Lost in 6, the superior defense of the Chicago Whales carrying them to victory. Congrats, Chicago!

The 'Glou are now 0-3 in the World Series

Well, there's always next week!

The multiple choice was a little avant garde.

Robin Yount was good.

The 'Glou are in their second straight World Series, taking on 5-time PL champs the Portland Kooks, who went 124-38 this season and eased their way to the Series with a 3-1 Division Series win and a 4-1 League Championship win.

We went 103-59, which was only good enough for third in our division. Beat division rivals Maple Grove Maples 7-2 in the wildcard game, Peak Pedro fanning 10 in 7 innings. Then beat the 122-40 Cleburne Railroaders 3-1 in the Division Series, crueling the Railroaders hopes for a 7th PL ring. They play in a leftie ballpark with a completely lefthanded lineup, versus left- or right-handed pitching. That I run 2 lefties in my rotation perhaps gave me an advantage.

We then took on the New Amsterdam Metrokees, who won our division with a 107-55 record. They have been at perfect level since 2039 and have only missed the playoffs 7 times. Even so, they are yet to win a ring.

After jumping out to a 3-0 lead we dropped the next 3 to set up a tense Game 7, Ben Sheets taking on Red Ruffing. A 6th-inning Austin Meadows 2-run homer put us up 4-1. The Metrokees clawed 1 back with a solo Posada dinger in the 7th. We added an insurance run in the 9th, Meadows again coming up big with an RBI-single, and held on to win 5-2.

Portland have a far superior roster to us but their lineup is a little bit weaker against LHP, so hopefully Eppa Rixey and Jon Matlack can come up big for me again.

And down in 6 for the second straight season

Congrats to the Portland Kooks who came back from 7-4 down to walk off 8-7 in the bottom of the 9th for the series win.

One Great Matrix · 09-08-2020, 09:54 AM

Dazzling consitency.
After the 2086 New York Flyers Mets tribute won 58 games, we won 124 in diamond, 97 back relaxed in perfect & then 6 straight seasons of 44-45 losses...118 wins is the most I've had in the regular season at the Perfect Level. I won them slightly different ways but I added Schilling and went to a 4-man rotation for anybody who cares. For anyone who doesn't kindly ignore this.
Last season was my sixth in a row with 117 or 118 wins.

Izz · 09-21-2020, 01:10 AM

First one

One Great Matrix · 09-21-2020, 02:02 AM

Congrats to the 'Glou! My first one was most satisfying.

My Clippers have made the Perfect playoffs 21 seasons in a row. They have won the division 13 times. Made 6 World Series. Averaged 102 wins a year.

Zero championships.

going to cry soon

dkgo · 09-21-2020, 01:17 PM

After thousands upon thousands upon thousands of packs I finally opened my first TOTD. Of course it was the worst one Cano but I'm going to play him for a season even though 99 Collins is almost certainly better at 2B.

Saw a TOTD Trout on the AH, I guess a tournament gave someone their second copy. 1.25 million PP was shockingly low to me. He will give you 10-12 WAR each year easy.

Law of averages says you'll probably win multiple titles in a row soon

We will see. 113 wins this season. 3rd in league, so I don't have home field after 113 wins.

Lost first round in 5

103-59 this season, 2nd seed in the league.

...eta...I was mistaken, I was the 3rd seed. They had 10 more wins, but we had the same run differential.

I swept the 1st round and am on to the league championship.

Went up against a 129-33 team in the LCS and took them out in 5, I went 1-6 against them during the season. On to the World Series.

sharknut · 10-05-2020, 05:28 AM

Blown out in 5.

0-7 in World Series.
