All Star break. SP Sandy Koufax and 1B Dick Stuart were voted onto the team. C Smokey Burgess, 2B Bill Mazeroski, rookie 3B Bob Bailey, SS Dick Groat, and LF Willie Stargell were selected by the NL manager.
We led by as much as 5 1/2 in late June but we're now only 1/2 game ahead. Scoring is down a bit and the bullpen collapsed.
Clemente is having a terrible year hitting .231 exactly 100 points less than last year. His contact rating is 19. Young players Stargell and Bailey are doing well. Groat is hitting like its 1960 real life and Dick Stuart has 19 HRs, second in the NL.
Since I'm not getting any offers for RPs and my Asst GM isn't making any suggestions I'm going to try to find one on my own.
