No proper update today, since the draft falls on Saturday in the current week, and while I played up to it, I have to go to bed at some point, since I need my sleep for another week of hell.

However, I dug out some strange, odd, but perhaps illuminating numbers here... alright, they are mostly strange ...

8 - number of consecutive seasons the Raccoons' actual record is below their expected record, which is an active streak; we are -1 this year, too.

250 - number of players that have appeared in the big leagues for the Raccoons after 19 1/2 seasons.

579 - number of runs allowed by the Raccoons in 1985, the least they ever conceded in a season, equating to 3.6 R/G; we are currently a hair above that mark, at 3.7 R/G.

789 - number of runs scored by the Raccoons in 1989 and 1992, for their high water mark; 789 equate to 4.9 R/G, and we are currently on pace for 5.3 R/G and about 850 to 860 runs for the year.

1,886 - number of most hits for the Raccoons by a single player; that player is of course Daniel Hall. In fact, Daniel Hall leads all "most of ..." categories for the Raccoons, except for ...:

213 - number of most stolen bases for the Raccoons by a single player (Matt Higgins);

.917 - highest OPS for a position player in his Raccoons career, held by Royce Green; why position player? Because ...:

2.000 - highest OPS for a player in his Raccoons career, jointly held by relievers Cesar Salcido and Emerson MacDonald, who both had a single in their only AB's with the Raccoons;

2.09 - best ERA for a pitcher in his Raccoons career with at least 100 IP, held by Gabriel De La Rosa; that's right, he's nudging out Grant West by .03 ER here;

2.78 - best ERA for a starting pitcher in his Raccoons career with at least 100 IP; no, it is not Kisho Saito, but you're close. It is Kinji Kan!

1,833 - most strikeouts by a pitcher in his Raccoons career, and THIS one is held by Kisho Saito; Kisho is the Daniel Hall of pitchers for us, holding almost all "most of ..." categories.

0.2 - total of innings pitched by position players for the Raccoons; Bobby Quinn was the unlucky hero in 1989, surrendering two runs along the way.

and ...:

11 - rank of the Raccoons' all-time record of (right now) 1,597-1,548 in comparison to all other teams, and ...

75.5 - number of games back the Raccoons are in relation to the Capitals, who have the best all-time record at 1,674-1,474.

Well, proper update tomorrow, unless I have a terrible stapling accident in the office.
