It's probably time to sit me down for a start or two.

Sorry for the late update, took this week off to basically do nothing and skipped my mind.

Burlington Sports Frogs
- Last Week: 2-4
- Season: 72-53 (1st in Div)
- League Power Ranking: 6th

NEWS AND NOTES

- The Oats took advantage of a slump by Rockford to ride a hot streak into the division lead. Keep it up1

- mister d went 5-for-5 in plate appearances in the most recent game (4 singles and a walk). After the game he said, "I like the grit of this ballclub."

- Injury: brian came down with an oblique strain while legging out a double and will be out one week. That's what you get for putting effort into offense.

You know, I've been decent since the all star break. No pop, but still. Don't feel nearly as bad about Giff's bitching now.

Need a late power streak and I could be a 30/30 man

Quietly putting together a career year.

Bench me. Please, I can;t take the weekly embarrassment.

TT2.0 is going public with his demands that you immediately place him on steroids

You've actually been decent since the start of June.

Still trying to figure out how DSafe has a higher pitching WAR than TT or chedda.

Or as he used to be popularly known, "Rainbow 6 and two thirds".

Nice hat hair wings right there.

My FIP is 4.01 while cheddar is 4.24, TT 4.38. My ERA is 4.76, so I am getting significantly worse results than how I have pitched (their ERAs are pretty close).

Oh FIP off

Hey, I'm going to see if I can get at least one Frogs vs. Oats scheduled before the end of the season. Sorry for not having it earlier, but using the schedule editor in this game is a pain in the ass. Will try to have the first series for this week's update.

The commissioner is drunk with power. Glad it worked out, though.

7HR to go but the season is getting short

Ever since getting called out by the owner, my hitting has been on a bit of a tear. Up to .214 now!

Damn brian, putting the me in team there.

Brian wrote:Getting the win feels nice," said Brian. "More importantly, I had a good game."

The virtual me is even more self absorbed than the real me, which is hard to imagine.

I've been on the Who's Not Hot list for a solid two months

Coincides with a certain bad music take.

Welp. Apparently I'm Joey Votto.
