    Attention! 2055 Boston Red Sox, cause.. I'm bored.

    2054 was like a reloading year. I knew I couldn't contend without a bullpen and a severely underperforming staff, plus some injuries to the lineup. I got creative at the trade deadline to get more youth, build the immediate farm up a bit more, and save some cash, cause let's face it, I'm only Boston in name. I'm more like Tampa Bay or some other lame market. And then we changed the league up and I got all pissed at the draft and said and decided, you know what, Rickey Henderson is just going to be my 2B and Y'ALL CAN'T STOP ME.

    At least until someone trades me a 2B.

    God knows what will happen, other than Baltimore winning 100-120 games. New York rebooted. Cleveland and whoever the fuck runs them got tossed in the division. Probably gonna be the same 3 teams, with the two that don't win the divisoon competing with whoever doesn't win the AL West for the wild card spot. Blood will be shed. Limbs will be lost. Hammer will cry in his coke.

    And I still don't have a pen.



    Starting Lineup:
    1. 2B Rickey Henderson, 7-8-6-10-7
    2. DH Rex Pennebaker, 9-8-9-5-10
    3. C Jake Taylor, 10-7-10-10-7
    4. LF Roy Sievers, 8-8-10-8-9
    5. 1B Fred McGriff, 9-9-10-7-6
    6. RF Roy Hobbs, 8-7-9-8-9
    7. CF Slade Wilson, 8-9-7-6-8
    8. SS Beans Babbitt, 6-7-3-7-10
    9. 3B Chad Clayton, 8-6-7-4-8

    Rotation:
    1. Alfred Mathews, 9-8-10
    2. Joey Turner, 10-8-10
    3. Amanda Whurlitzer, 10-8-9
    4. Bill Sills, 8-9-7

    Pen:
    MR Gabriel Cuesta, 6-7-7
    MR Luke Johns, 4-10-8
    MR Michael Frost, 6-8-8
    MR William Fletcher, 9-8-7
    MR John Lucchesi, 6-7-10
    CL Joseph Snider, 10-10-8


    Pretty grim reality as the season goes along, with Taylor and Mathews wanting Chipper contracts, so free agency in 2056 should be pretty nuts. So hey, there's that to look forward to, for the rest of you all. Should be a pretty good race for the wild card. I don't see myself competing with Baltimore's all-around mega talent. Plus they have a good pen. And The Jet. Damn.

    "Probably gonna be the same 3 teams, with the two that don't win the divisoon competing with whoever doesn't win the AL West for the wild card spot."

    you three are too strong. youll compete with mach [probably] or o's magic for the wild card, and me and cj will battle for the west, with the loser being 5-6 games behind you guys in the wild card.

    and i also have zero semblance of a bullpen. i feel ill be going to a 4 man rotation by june.
