Tell me about it.
- Mets
- Werder Bremen
- Ferrari F1 for decades (now a Lando Norris fanboy, and McLaren is just as hopeless)
- BMW wherever they're attempting to race
Then I remember that I manage the Raccoons just as retartedly and it all evens out in the end.

First in runs scored with May almost over (and with 4.88 runs per game), which still doesn’t sound like a Raccoons thing. We are also having the problem of neither Waters nor Carreno getting it together. Derek Baskins led off the last two days, but that of course means that you have to make room in the outfield, and putting Maldonado at short takes a bit of defense away on the infield.
Baskins also isn’t the ideal leadoff hitter, but Waters has one of the worst OBP on the team, barely scraping above .300 (Manny actually has the worst, wickedly). Carreno’s no better. Cruz has a .429 in reduced time, while Ayala, he of the 18-game hitting streak, is reaching base at a .452 rate. Cristiano is begging me to put him in the #1 hole, but I hate listening to Cristiano and his colorful charts just as much as I hate putting a slow runner in the leadoff spot. – Come on, Cristiano, we’re first in runs scored even WITH Waters hitting leadoff! How bad can it be!? – (is shown a chart) – *So* bad?

Matt Waters will totally be back in the leadoff spot.
