2063 IPA Pro Cup Prediction
6th Place: LaGrange Gators 96-58
LaGrange really played well in nabbing the Ruthladian North pennant, posting 96 wins, second best in the IPA...but they played in one of the weaker divisions in the IPA... if the Gators go deep into the IPA postseason, it will be because of solid starters and a really good bullpen... the offense is borderline... however, the Gators get a break in the schedule... their first round opponent Claxton is rated the worst team in the Pro Cup playoffs... but then they have to take on the winner of Colfax and Elnora, two high-scoring clubs and highly-touted teams, for the Ruthlandian Union title... Michel Paquette, Chucky Beckman, Levi Coleridge and Jerry Ezzell are pretty fair starters, but the bullpen is lights out with Dave Loxley, Trey Ladner and Lucien Petit... the Gators are just average at the plate with Tony Rojas, Cleve Juban, Chogie Alfieri, Rusty Hawes and Stan Taginski... they might get past Claxton, but they will run into trouble in round two.
