Another Face in the Crowd
Facing a tough conference, GM Bailey signed Joe Mauer whose price "broke the buck" and seemed affordable. That brings to 9 the number of perfect cards on this free to play team. The Magpies' division contains, not just a Perfect League veteran, but a Perfect League champion: the Bronx Bombers. There are also 4 other Perfect League veterans in the conference, so that's 6 vets competing for 5 spots not to mention any up and comers who may be lurking in the shadows. Noteworthy, is the expansion next week of Perfect League to 60 teams which should ease the pain that Diamond League brings.
One of the vets currently is 3 games under .500 which is noteworthy since they started out in Rookie league with 154 wins and had as many as 119 wins in Diamond in 2038. But that team has 1) only added 3 players since 2023 the last ones being in 2035 and 2) has failed to make Diamond league playoffs 3 years in a row. Which proves you shouldn't blow your funds on your first day. Here is fun screenshot for 100 Carl Hubbell stats in the early years.
