NLD 37 - One More For 20 - 1 - 4

Regarding the season, let me say this "well, sh!t!"

I'm sort of with you Smoke, this team just can't get untracked. We were at least playing well at home but we've lost the last two series at home and we've gone 3-9 overall. Our 52% opponent rolling on their hitters cards has not abated so our pitching continues to under perform:

Wainwright 53%
Qunitana 55%
Parnell 56% (!)
Medina 52%
Choate 52%

Only Jones (49%) and Collins (38%) have been below 50% and Corbin is at 50% (rounding).

Our hitting is pretty much right at 50% so that might factor in a bit to our poor performance of late.

My wife knows to keep her eye on SoM website for the rating guide availability. She declined to wait in line for the cards though

The boys took two from Joe's band with Raul crushing it. The guy is either home run or sit on the bench. Reminds me of the players that QkSilver used to roster.

Hope all have a great holiday!

I'm reasonably pleased with my guys - after considering GB's blistering start. My #2 pick of Bumgarner has been a waste, so far, but Darvish has made up for that. His 249 Ks in 179 innings is amazing. Carp and Sanchez have been trying to make a living off pitcher's cards - and doing reasonably well.

HAL had the fix in the mix last night against SuperFly's guys as were swept on the road and finish 0-6 at that park.

Seems half my guys stayed stationary on the bath paths whilst SuperFly guys hit 1-8 split horme runs

Joe, thanks for the Xmas gifts. Much appreciated/

Well you're welcome, I guess. We just SUCK on the road. I don't get it, I don't think we're *that* bad in other parks, but maybe we are.

Merry Christmas Everyone.

I can't recall going this long without Joe's ratings.

Salty' bat finally arrived. FedEx said it got mailed to Ottawa.

Do the have a special baseball player insurance policy in Ottawa that pays extra for DL stints?

If so, the Southpaws are surely taking advantage of it.

+2 in run diff. Yeah for me. Still under .500 of course.

Two days and no "Joe" sighting.

I wonder if Santa got Joe a new toy to occupy himself.
