I've never had a team consistently have sims 1-2 games over .500, every sim so far has been exactly that.  I'm just worried about a real bad sim heading my way but slow and steady wins the race!!!

New file is up, reports are extracting, and Statslab will be updated soon. Final May sim is Friday!

All-Star Game voting has been enabled in Statslab as well. You are able to adjust your ballot if needed leading up to the ASG.

Ouch, what a dreadful sim, including getting no-hit by WV and a 2-month injury to my starting 2B.

Not a good sim for Idaho. At least the Leafs were eliminated from NHL playoffs last night and I had a little fun in Vegas.

So my team has been hanging around .500 this year. Starting to grow hope. The best news is I brought former #2 over all pick Ed Wilson up. He got rocked his 1st start but got the win and had a great 2nd start to go 2-0.
Updating my trade block.

I would like to congratulate Lesser Virginia for lasting half way through May before being mathematically eliminated.  It was a thrilling race this year.

Anytime I can get a 5-4 sim I'll take it, even if West Virginia busted us open twice and Virgina shut us out twice.

We actually had a winning month of May last year, maybe it's our good luck month.

On May 17 Liam Meadows hit a top of the 13th inning grand slam to eventually win the game for us at Georgia 13-9. The home run put Meadows into 5th all time on the Maryland career home run leaderboard with 62, surpassing Ian Vaughan who now resides in the Virginia system after being selected in the 2017 Expansion Draft.

Meadows, there's a blast from the New Jersey past.

Would you be interested in having him back? You could have a home run derby between Meadows and Vaughan.

The ONE thing that doesn't make the Newbold trade a complete and utter bust (although still a major fleecing). He's been the sort of lefty power bat I was hoping so far, and he's still just turning 23. But his durability is fragile (does that change? I swear I thought he was "normal").
