After taking the division, I got to play Fletch's wild-card team (from the same division I had just won), and proceeded to get knocked out in 4 games. That isn't the amazing part as we all know that HAL loves the wild-card team. What is amazing is he lost Trammell (the entire series) and J. Clark (game #3 and #4) to injury, so check out the "D" that kept my guys scoreless:

Harrah at shortstop
Dilone at third
Zisk in leftfield
Gibson in rightfield

Gotta love that "D"...They must have had terrific accuracy when they were throwing their mitts at the ball to stop it.

So how do you win the division, play the same team you just took the division from who is forced to play terrible "D" due to injury...and lose in 4??

Oh...good luck in the finals Fletch...git-r-done buddy!!

Beginner's luck, I guess :wink:

"Girly Arm" Dilone and "Not So Fleet of Foot" Harrah seemed to form a Steel Curtain of defense on the left side. I think I've discovered a new draft card strategy..... :D

Trammell is overrated, who needs him.
