    Yeah, who would have thought that me, and DMB would have been able to come out on top. This was certanly a race to remember. The rise of a strong challenge (CJ), the emergence of the contenders (me, DMB), the hope of a new world (Prov), and the beating that Guizar laid down on us all. (henks)

    You could write a movie with this stuff.

    Cincinnati started strong last year and faded as well...they took longer to fade this year though. I wasn't trying to compete; just wanted to finish .500 or better.

    Re: 2020 Random Ramblings

    I really like my outlook on next season when i get Morales, Bonney and a healthy Fruto back. It will also be interesting to see how Rogers does for a full season in Safeco. I can take some positives from this season. But with those injuries I think this team could have been better than they were. I'm still debating on a couple of my arby guys and Elbert on if i want to keep them or not.

    Fruto is injury prone, so that's possible...but I have injuries set to "low" (one below normal...there is one lower than low) so it was just bad luck for Porter. Injuries were pretty low league-wide...at least injuries that had any real impact.

    Dispite old age, long time Phillies Bourn, Ramirez and Hamels continue to produce for me. I serously dont know how thye put up good numbers like this anymore.

    Seriously, Bourn put up career highs in RBIs and hit for his highest average since 2014. Contract year or not, his ratings suck and quite frankly I expected him to just die off my roster by now.

    I also wanted to reach 100 wins, but my team had soem troubles playing when Lincoln pitched. I think they lost 10 straight of his starts. Still, its alot better compared to the rest of the history of my team in this league..... Eat it Brandon Wood.

    I'm surprised Fruto had lasted so long without a real major injury before now.
    I still want to fire my team doctor and conditioning coaches for the pitchers demise. I think this team could be very good the next couple of years. I need a better SS, one that can at least hit for contact to go with the stellar defense. Foster, if your not going to use Rios, send him back to Seattle dammit. And add some SP depth. Elbert and Freitas but impolded down the stretch, which was a little baffling for Freitas considering he was sub 4 in every month before Sept.

    And when has bad luck not hit a team of mine.

    If he can pitch better than Christan Contreas this season. He would work too.

    Well Porter, I have two players with Doctor in their names, so that probably why I didnt lose anyone outside of Murdock for more than a week.

    I spent a lot of money on the bullpen and even with the better talent I got his mediocre pen, rotation was pretty good for me, I think I'll just blow this apart and start again
