It sure has been fun being in the playoff mix, but it's sooo disappointing getting knocked out  .
Edit: One of the teams in my PeL division was a multiple tanker in the past. Rookie league, tut tut  |
Congratulations, on your nice run. I'm glad this is the last week for content, so I can finalize my shopping list in preparation for year 2.
The Hamtramck Tigers are still looking for a theme, but will have to do it on a much slimmer budget. The million plus point stash raised since the great sell-off of 2043 was largely spent on 2 players. FACE Ty Cobb joined the squad in the middle of the season replacing Billy Williams at DH and lit up Bronze League. He didn't have enough PA to qualify for the batting title, but still managed Great Bat, and MVP as well as finishing the season on a 30 game hitting streak. FACE Pedro Martinez was picked up also just in time for the playoffs, so winning their 3rd Bronze League championship was easy-peasy. So, with these two new faces, we'll see if they can carry the team in silver where 64 wins has been the norm, recently. One possible theme for this team is Cobb + Martinez who will "coach" the other 24 players who played in the Little League World Series.
