Hello fellow Free Trial League 377489 team owners.
I am the owner of the Las Cruces Road Runners. I'm 55 y.o. and used to play Stratomatic back in 1970's with my late dear friend Leonard, and I'm looking forward to the challenge of taking on your teams in this trial league. With Ty Cobb, Lou Brock, and Paul Molitor in my lineup, I think that Road Runners is an appropriate name, and I used to have an Albuquerque Road Runners in my league, back in the day. In the late 80's i lived in las Cruces, NM for 3 years, so I've revised the team name accordingly. Hopefully my manager Wile E Coyote will have a better time managing these Road Runners than his cartoon namesake has with his cartoon nemesis.
In my scouting I see that all of you have put together some powerful teams. I am especially worried about the Bombers and their Murder's row of power hitters and the Knights with their lights out pitching staff and speedsters of their own. I see that the Knights owner/manager has quite astutely put his high speed/ low power team in an old, giant ball park to neutralize the power of any opponents teams. I thought of doing something similar, but opted for sentimentality by putting my team in Shea, the old home of my favorite team, the Mets. I think my speed based line up, though balanced with some power from Frank Howard, and a couple of other sluggers, will do well at the Knights home if can a few hits off of that stellar staff. I think my pitching staff, though not as stellar as the Knights is pretty solid, but I'm looking to upgrade it a bit by claiming a couple of better arms off of waivers. As for the Bombers, I expect some high scoring matches between our teams. My team doesn't have nearly as much power, but they can hit, so I think we'll do alright.
