The Express.....
After putting them all in the pen to make sure I got thru Exeter, I knew I'd put myself in a precarious spot heading into the ACS, and I ended up putting myself into a hole I couldn't dig out of, dropping the series 4-1 to the eventual WS Champion Virginia Beach Freaks. It felt great juggling like crazy to get past Exeter, but I just left myself with no ace up my sleeve, and no moves to make and too many players were cold.
Tye Cobb won the MVP award, and it was a closer race with the Cobb on Exeter. He hit .323/27/104, but scored 149 runs, stole 86 bases, had an OBP of .423 and 7.3 WAR, all of which led the league. Best season I've had from anyone, and he did it while being a butcher in LF, he'll be making a move to DH next year as a result.
Great season, looking forward to making some tweaks for next year, and hoping that my pitching holds steady all season long, While I have invested in contact hitters the past few years, I've seen my average go up, home runs go down, and more or less ignoring my bullpen until the home stretch, watched team ERA go from 2.89 to 3.59. See you in 2040! Congrats to everyone on your wins! (And for me, I seriously hope I get away from Exeter!)
