I think the big question is who will win the PL North... 3 teams at 39-32 and another at 36-35. This race will go all the way to the end for sure.

Our division and wildcard races are really starting to shape up into good ones!

Final June sim has been finished. New file is up, reports are extracting, and Statslab will be updated soon! Another reminder to vote for the All-Star Game in Statslab!

4-6 sim to lose lead but im onbly 2 games back and with a sweep of NJ possible nothing is un heard of, my hitters are heating up and my solid pen thanks to trade makes me feel good.

4-3 agains NJ this year hope to make it wider nex sim

A 5-5 sim for Washington has our fans VERY confused.  We have never had a week where we won as many as we lost.  Our current 4 game win streak has our fans dreaming of having a better record than Virginia this year!

Two notable performances.  Ivan Garza has a 6.33 ERA on the year, and that includes out dueling Ned Haas en route to a no-decision in a game we would beat Oregon 1-0 in the bottom of the 12th.  CF Sam Lambert hit 3 home runs against Idaho, the second player this year to do that.  Lambert doubled his seasonal home run output in that one game.

For those of you who've already cast your votes, Matt and I decided to expand the criteria a bit for batters such that more players qualify to appear on the ballot.  You may want to go back and review as some of the players that were previously not on the ballot due to playing time, like Indiana catcher Rob Hodge, are worthy of consideration now.

Voting as always is optional but always encouraged . Here is who I don't have any votes cast yet for the All-Star Game. You have until Wednesday morning at 6am CT. Voting is done in Statslab and you can vote for just your league or both or whatever. There more votes the better as it will help in determine the non-top-vote-getters that get selected as reverses by me.

Rob (North Carolina)
Stefin (West Virginia)
David (Iowa)
Stephen (Maryland)
Pete (Georgia)
Michael (Kentucky)
Elliott (Oregon)
Joel (New York)
Raymond (Illinois)
Jonathan (Ontario)
Steve (Virginia)
Harry (Ohio)

Thanks!

Don't forget to vote for the NJ bullpen guys (Benton, Newbold, Hynes and Jones) they are the best bullpen in the league by far.

The NJ bullpen is nearly a 1 full run better than any other bullpen in the AFBL with a combined 1.85 ERA - pity our starters aren't up to the level expected this year.
