The Diamonds have been very good the last few seasons... Claxton is headed for its fourth straight RU South title... they won the Pro Cup in an upset, beating powerful Rolling Hills in 2064.
It would be nice if they meet once again in the Pro Cup Finals... but that is really hard to do... 64 teams make it highly unlikely... this year it looks like Claxton has some offense to go with their fine pitching... that make them double trouble in the playoffs... the addition of a big bat at first base with rookie Jeff Walton, plus career years by Paddy Garson, Karl Dornhauer and Fred Hahn, has greatly boosted the offense... the Diamonds are hitting 30 points higher this year... they are batting a torrid .296 this season as opposed to a modest ..263 last year.
The way Claxton is playing this year makes the the odds-on favorite for the Pro Cup... their offense is right up there with Rolling Hills... and their pitching is much better than the Racers... head-to-head, I would favor the Diamonds.
