as always, appreciate everyone's involvement this season (especially Stanley for the concept/organizing/etc)... already pre-ordered v23 here, so Waffletown will be around for next version... if there's still enough of us around next version hope to see another OL season in the mix.

Waffletown's Jacob DeGrom finishes off a stellar season with both Pitcher of the Year and MVP:

First, happy for the team from Gear Terrace. A wild postseason for the Warrriors definitely had to include Shinbone, their season-long rival. Their series went the full five games, starting with the Stars’ Pete Alexander shutting out the Warriors on four hits in a 7-0 victory. The Warriors won the 2nd game before each team won in extra innings, setting up a potential epic game five. However, game five turned out to be as anticlimactic as game one, though in the opposite direction, as Alexander coughed up 7 earned runs on the way to a 12-1 drubbing by Gear Terrace. It was up and down the rest of the way for the Warriors, as they both lost big (9-1 and 6-0), but won bigger (18-1 and 10-1) in various games.

Second, OL22 will obviously be over once Stanley checks out. A tremendous thank you to him for all the record-keeping, award-making, and general stewardship of the league!

It looks like I'll cover Silver this week for the last go-round.

I feel exactly the same way. I am exhausted by three years of this and at this point am not even planning on doing OOTP 23, at least initially. I will wait awhile and see if the urge strikes me to start up again, but as for now, I think I will move on and try other things.

I appreciate the OL league and my success in it, but I am looking forward to not checking and entering tournaments umpteen times every day, doing auction house searches constantly to finish collections, and analyzing reams of data to find a slight edge. My heart is just not in it any more. I am burned out.

Thanks to everyone for a great three years!

At first glance, Nowhere have no OL games, so it'll be a busy battle within the AC Central.

[Tinkerman]

Gonna be a bit busier than last week.

[revmcgator]

AC East is the place to be.

[Stanley Kuppchaser]

Here's the bronze.

[Stanley Kuppchaser]

Inland Empire rides an April road sweep to stake out the early lead.

[Tinkerman]

I'm sure Cary will be hoping for a glorious victory tour, and they've got off to a good start. Shame that Nowhere aren't at the party.

[Tinkerman]

A busy start, though Seattle are yet to play. Silly are on course to further cement their place as Kings of Gold.

[revmcgator]

Perennial middle-of-the-pack South Holland with the surprising start, but many other contenders lurk close behind. Lemp Ave's Dizzy Dean with the best pitching performance of the month as he no-hits Ostego. A lead-off 9th inning walk was the only blemish on an otherwise perfect outing.

[Tinkerman]

Last week and all, I'm hoping that this one will go down to the wire.

[Tinkerman]

That's quite a start that Silly have made!

[Stanley Kuppchaser]

Inland Empire continues their hot start, but a solid group of contenders remain in the hunt.

[revmcgator]

South Holland still hanging on, but Baltimore, Shinbone, Cleveland and Sonora all in position to make a move.

[HRBaker]

Good times. Great concept. Thanks to all for the opportunity.

With an 8-2 month, Knockemstiff have put themselves in a pretty strong position at halfway.

[Tinkerman]

Good month for the Mundys as they leapfrog Silly.
