Looks like most people have cleared out of PT20 in favor of PT21. I am happy to report that 2 versions of the Frogs are now active, both the storied PT20 outfit that got its brains beat in last week in Whale League (ok, 77-85 isn't exactly relegation material) and the fresh, new PT21 squad that's clubbing baby seals in Rookie level.
The PT20 version will be the subject of this update.
It's an interesting league with a nice distribution of strong teams that I've crossed paths with before, or at least heard about.
The AL East favorite is the tournament powerhouse Palolo Puppies. The Puppies are a righty-overload team with 1 PL title, but probably a couple hundred tournament wins. In the AL Central, there's a really interesting battle taking place between the 11-time PL champ Parish WhoDats and the 7-time PL champ Kogarah Kings. We're not looking forward to facing either of them in the postseason. In the AC West, the 13-time PL champ Frogs are duking it out with the 7-time PL champ KP. We've been placed in the same division with KP on at least 3 occasions now, and I'm beyond tired of seeing the pop star avatar. The London Majors also have one PL title, but haven't been involved in the division race.
In the NC, we have the ayyy lmaos, an apparent chat-speak team with a single PL title, in the East. The NC Central is a tough place to live with the 7-time PL champ Windy City Summoners, the 3-time PL champ Victoria Vikings (on an 18-game winning streak!), and the 2-time PL champ Chiswick Big Wigs. The Summoners and Vikings are run by semi-regular denizens of the OOTP boards. The Virginia Redbirds are the only former PL title winner in the West. Not mentioned previously is Odense Karolina--this team has been breaking out the past couple of weeks with a very high win total compared to previous results. Maybe a team that decided to make a late investment.
The Frogs have scored 650 runs and allowed 294, for a meaty run differential of 356 (best in P454). We'll see how the playoffs go with a handful of serious contenders in each conference.
