Record: 4-9, .308
Position: 9th in KJCCC West, 6 GB
Power Ranking: 52.4, 17th in KJCCC (-1)
Owner Mood: Ecstatic
Fan Interest: 44/100

This Week: 1-3

April 21st vs. Hutchinson (L 8-5, LP- Guiomar Clia). Clia was roughed up in 1 inning of work, he gave up 4 runs, all in the 7th inning. Bobby Lopez and Leo Gatica each had 2 RBIs.

April 23rd at Garden City (L 5-0, LP- Steve O'Connor). We actually outhit Garden City 9-6, but left 8 runners on base. O'Connor gave up 4 runs in 4 innings of work.

April 24th vs. Colby (W 13-12, WP- Mark Ryan). This was an old fashioned slugfest, as we led 8-6 after 2 innings, after giving up 6 runs in the first. Dave Graham had 4 hits, including 2 homers and 4 RBIs for us, and Roberto Velazquez hit a walk-off homer on the first pitch of the 9th inning to give us a badly needed win.

April 26th at Barton County (L 8-0, LP- Ivan Gonzalez). Not much to talk about in this one as we only managed 6 hits all game. Again, the starting pitching was a downfall, as Gonzalez only lasted 4 innings.

GM/Manager Analysis

Seems like we saved all our offense for 1 game, as we were shut out twice, but scored 13 runs against Colby. Our pitching took a huge hit this week, as both our starter and bullpen ERA is now 9th in the KJCCC West. Our defense is still sharp, but our offense is still bad.

I'm constantly searching the free agent market and the waiver wire for some help, but there just isn't any there. And the minor league season hasn't started yet, but it's a safe bet that some of those guys will get a chance to produce here at Cloud County before the season is over. Nobodys job is safe right now, especially when it comes to the pitching staff. The one bright spot for the week is that the KJCCC West Player of the Week came from Cloud County. More on that later.

Team Injuries

April 26- Jim James fell out of his sons treehouse and suffered and intercostal strain, whatever the heck that is. He's expect out a week or two.

Team Transactions

April 26- We placed James on the 10 day injured list and called up Mark Bortner to the main roster.
