BLB - Worst Franchise Discussion

[Pat]

A meteoric rise for Evans - starting the year in A ball and debuting in the BLB before the All-Star break.

The Pittsburgh Way...ruining one prospect at a time..

Not really...I'm desperate for pitching help, he's dominated at each level, and he's the only guy I have in my system with semi-decent ratings. I would've called up Anibal Soto but he's only 4-4-4.

Or the fact that Soto is out for 3 months.

You may be desperate for pitching...but for what? You are completely out of contention, so why rush the kid?

Because I'm impatient.

Hence...the Pittsburgh way.

Remember when California used to be the butt of all the bad team jokes?

I don't really miss those days.

Those days I'm sure are still just around the corner.

To be fair if that was the Pittsburgh way Eden would've started the season in the BLB.

Not gonna happen.

OSA says I have the best overall ranking (current staff + organization depth) in...

#1 Pitching
#1 Second Base
#3 First Base
#5 Catcher (sure to get better with the inclusion of Elliott)

Things are just starting to get good in Cali. We deserve it though. Certainly the worst franchise in the BLB for the first five, six years of the BLB.

I'm probably below you. Other than '83-'85 I've been absolutely terrible.

[Lintyfresh85]

No, no you're not.

Go look up the numbers. California is still the only franchise with a winning percentage under .400 for their history. And yes, that even includes all four of the expansion teams.

A horrible, .390

On the other hand Pittsburgh career winning percentage is at .498

You guys can hash out the argument in here...

Syracuse has to at least be in the discussion.
