The teams with Perfect League championships to their name have come out strong to start the 2043 season in P426. Unsurprisingly, the class of the AC is the Mississauga Carnivores, who have an incredible 47-8 record and lead the AC Central by 13 games. The other 2 AC divisions are much closer, as 2-time Perfect champ IB Breakers in the AC East have yet to pull away from the Erusea Interceptors and Long Beach Landsharks, and the Waterford Lancers in the AC West have a slim lead over the Hamilton Thunderbirds.

Meanwhile, the NC has turned into a story of dominance, as the gaps between the first- and second-place teams in each division are already at least 16 games! Setting the pace is the team that actually has the best run differential in the league, the NC Central-leading INKO Seagulls. Hot on their heels in the race for the #1 NC playoff seed is the Homestead Grays.

The Huntley Red Raiders find themselves in a strange position. They are 16 games up in the NC East and are the only team in the division above .500 (that's good!), but they are also a combined 2-7 against INKO and Homestead (that's bad). Getting home field advantage in the NC playoffs is going to be incredibly important and also ridiculously difficult to achieve; it's shaping up to be a heck of a race to the top of the NC.

The player Huntley acquired early in the year, one whom the team has coveted for a long time, is off to a great start. In 25 games, Diamond 99 Yogi Berra is hitting .286/.337/.480 (.297/.340/.473 vs righties), has thrown out 34.3% of would-be base stealers, and has a CERA of 2.48. Early team WAR leaders on the hitters' side are RF Christian Yelich and 2B Arky Vaughan; Eric Gagne is a bullpen standout with 12 saves and an unsustainable, but fun while it lasts, 0.00 ERA, while Lee Smith is up to his usual tricks: 23.2 innings, 0.38 ERA, 1124 ERA+.
