Now not to throw salt on any wounds here as your note above is correct. I do have one small and meaningless caveat to throw in. Last season Cleveland started 5-12 which cost manager Hank Leitke his job. We promoted AA pitching coach Jim Wilson (former Forester who’s career was taken from him by an arm injury and unsuccessful surgery) to be the new manager. Wilson went 82-55 last season as the club finished 87-67. This year 13-4 start for Wilson’s Foresters give him exactly 1 full season (154 games) at the helm. The record for those 154 games, 95-59. So in a twisted way of thinking Cleveland has won over 90 games in a bridged season
Of course Cleveland has never won a FABL World Series Championship and Chicago has 5
