Limping to the playoffs, thankfully we beat Ohio 2-1 in our series, but they still managed to gain a game on us as we could only go 5-5.

A 1 game lead with 10 games to go is not the position we envisaged we'd be in. Oh well, we'll keep on fighting.

Dax Taylor did become the first Athletic to hit 3 home runs in a game, as he managed the feat in a win over New Mexico.

1-9 sim. I guess putting AAA guys in the lineup to see how they might do in a Sept callup doesn't always work. lol

7-3. A few adjustments and the team is hopefully heading in the right direction but lots of work ahead. Its a start, though.

Tommy Carr's average has dropped to .378.

Indiana currently holds a 3 game lead on Texas for the division title, but they play each other in the final sim.  Furthermore, Illinois has to play Indiana, Texas and Kentucky.  That could propel them into good playoff positioning or put them completely out of the wild card spots.

Yeah I was hoping he wouldn't slump this month but still very impressive season for the youngster!

If Greg Smith can drive in 13 runs in his final 10 games, he'll break the single-season RBI mark.

edit - 13 to tie, 14 to break.

Here is how the playoff picture currently is set going into our final sim...

FL
1. Indiana vs 4. Illinois
2. Colorado vs 3. Texas

In the hunt for the final Wildcard: Kentucky (2 GB), Oregon (6 GB)

Indiana has a 4 game lead over Colorado for the 1-seed. Texas has a 4 game lead over Illinois for the 3-seed (top wildcard).

PL
1. West Virginia vs 4. Ohio
2. New Jersey vs. 3. North Carolina

In the hunt for the final wildcard: Georgia (7 GB)

West Virginia has 20 game lead over New Jersey for the 1-seed. New Jersey holds a slim 1 game lead over Ohio in the PL North. North Carolina has a 8 game lead over Ohio for the 3-seed (top wildcard).

Too close for comfort... big battle to get the 2nd seed, rather than 4th seed.

Jarred Washington is not really a free agent if you notice him. He looks to be a causality from the wackiness. My apologies!

We may be last in the FL, but Olympia will be battling it out for the AAA championship!
