As expected, the Pioneers staff was tough to beat, and they will now head home up 2-0 in what could be a very quick series. Chicagoan Larry Gregory (.326, 23, 99) was crucial in the opener, as a three-run homer proved to be the difference. No-Trade star Danny Hern (14-8, 3.75, 86) is on the mound for game three, and I'd be shocked if he doesn't come home with the victory. The Sailors will counter with Charlie Gordon (13-8, 3.93, 94), and he'll hope former Cougar Ed Reyes (.341, 7, 72) can snap his o'fer as the Sailors look to turn things around on the road.

Notable Prospects/Picks Traded
None

This Cougars pitching staff is still pretty solid, but the lineup is on the weaker side. Sal Pestilli played a huge part in our almost success and we don't really have anyone on this team that can replace him. Stickels had a solid season, but the rest of the big performers were Cougars. A lot of teams currently run more homegrown lineups, and since we haven't made many big trades recently, most of our best prospects are still in the system. I almost wish we had this team this year, aside from the fact that we wouldn't have three lottery ball, as this team has obvious areas to upgrade. I'm not sure what I'm going to do to make this current group better, but I have a few ideas. Should be a fun offseason!
