PLEASE VOTE FOR ALL STAR GAME ASAP!!!! Sorry it's last minute, game came a week earlier than normal (or I'm just dumb).

***

Maine and Mississippi did not have their Single A roster at or below 25. SHAME!!!!!

No breaks this week for the holiday... business as usual.

Baltimore just won't go away.

Ming Er is now hitless in 6 straight and off the top players list. Looks like another top 10 draft pick in the Chi.

3-3 sim. Soto looks great and should be an allstar with Sau and Mac Aaron. Dodge a bullet with the Rangel injury. We just keeping plugging along waiting on guys to come around.

That three team trade has seemed to work out for everyone, in at least the performances of the pitchers.

Well, maybe Gerard still can't figure it out but between Olivo, Lindsey and Soto (the biggest three pieces really in that deal), they have a combined 21-8 record at this point in the season.

[Carlos]

After a disastrous 1-5 sim put Denver back at .500, the team bounced back with a 6-0 sim to go a season high 6 games over .500 and move back within 3 games of Indianapolis.

Good, good week for both the offense and bullpen. The starting pitching wasn't that good, but they did enough.

Don't worry. I'm pretty sure there will be a sim in the near future where our entire team gets injured all at once.

Your also getting the benefit of the worst division in baseball.

Speaking of: Pawtucket 1-5, but how about that Lawrence AA squad???? Makes me feel good about our future.

Been doing a bit of draft watching. Seems a few of those extra picks are turning out to be high ones (exclude that Dino team) Still a long way to go however.

It was predicted, but the Ale is now the Pilsner.

I wouldn't go that far. I mean, yes, a few of us predicted the Ale would have a down slide (it's only natural), but Hartford has a record above .500 and Maine is right there.

The Pilsner still rules with getting a team into the playoffs with only 81 wins (and that was AFTER winning a play-in game). Sad.

[Carlos]

LOL at Dana Scott going 5-7 on June 25.

Is there a more deceiving player in the game?

I agree, but we are getting there. I also mention it cuz the simple fact is no elites exist here anymore and the Lager sort of replaced it. I see two Elite teams there.

The Pilsner has an upcoming team, one whacky veteran team, one team sliding (running its course) and one still rebuilding. I'd call your division "normal" now.

I'll take it!

Return from vacation has been painful. What a Fricking mess we are in. Positive. the crowds we are pulling in. Negative. Losing will fix that

First time I can remember we have a minor league team in 1st. Maybe some talent will finally show up. Would help if I could draft

Justin Linesman former 1st round pick has been cut. How painful that was. He was just being kept around because he was a crowd favorite, too bad he can't hit. The rest of his game was good.

Lombardo will be heading back to AAA. He can't find the plate at all.

[Delandis]

5-1 including 2-1 vs. the tough Carolina Tobs.

Breakout week for (technically) rookie Angelo Barrios who played like a vet: 7/20, 2 HR, 10 RBI.

If anyone wants to pick up Doug Bryant off waivers, he'll only be 2M for the rest of the year.

I HATE high school draftees.
