Playoff teams need to be at 25 by Wednesday's SIM. Thanks!

Pawtucket 2-5. Going 3-15 against Hartford for the season is obviously an issue.

Otherwise looks like we have the #13 & #19 picks in the upcoming draft.

7th straight season at .500 or better and we actually reduced salary & made some money at the end.

Good luck to the playoff teams.

The IL ROY gets hurt in the last week of the season with a slide into home, broke his hand.

This is trash.

With our fate in our hands, we drop 3 of 4 to 68-win Mississippi to end the season, including a 1-run loss in the final game. For the 3rd time in the last 4 seasons, New Orleans misses a playoff berth by one game. Hooray!

Duarte didn't get hurt.

Duarte didn't get hurt.

And Betts was already hurt....

Tough week for rookies. Baez hurt (pending diagnosis too).

I said ROY not runner-up....

Posted the most Wildcats wins in the 90's. Headed in the right direction I hope.

Half of Carolina got hurt. I think Balt takes them.

I don't even think they'll have a Catcher who is playoff roster eligible.

We've got our own share of key injuries. The Kubota and Maekawa injuries are huge. Two .400+ OBP are very hard to replace.

But all of this is irrelevant considering there is always one team that hasn't had to worry about injuries in the regular season or playoffs in nearly a decade.

I hadn't really followed him since he got traded. Wow, he had a monster season.

I had injuries this season and have a key starter out for an unknown period. I've also had starters out in almost every playoff run except for the year I lost to Los Alamos (ironically). I'm not sure if you're taking this angle to make a loss easier to take or a win sweeter... but either way it's pretty hollow.

Not a bad year kid!
