I'm more amazed that your team isn't a 100-win team every season.

It makes a lot more sense this season than the last few because Alex Ransom and Slim Green died, at least.

Hmm, Kirk Moses threw 97 pitches at 83% on the second to last game of the season. I was expecting to see him in game 1, but he might not even be 100% for game 3. Instead I got a 67% Bailey Osborne in g1. :iiam:

Everyone vote Haywood for MVP so I don't feel like this was a completely worthless season tia

Oh, there's plenty of other balls in the sea. Plus, you're not very talented.
Nobody should ever need an excuse to vote for Haywood Cameron as MVP.


e: Pecota, I think I have to place part of the blame of your team constantly underperforming on jettisoning Roosevelt Bolick:

I'd possibly blame Roosevelt Bolick for leaving some kind of underperforming staph infection in the lockers from when he had a HR/FB of like 20% for me.

E: He might have gotten it from Carter Llanos.

Memo to everybody: either leave or don't. Posts always talking about leaving during the season add absolutely nothing and actually get kind of depressing en masse.

Some kind of courtesy notice after a season's over is all we need. Thanks.

Because there's no precedence for terrible pitchers having random good games in the postseason, let alone any random time during the season.
