Performance of the Week
P Taelin Leanos - Just acquired from Hartford the 31 year old tossed his first complete game since 2044 in a 4-0 shutout of Carolina on July 17th. Over the course of the game he struck out seven, walked none and allowed only two hits. He's now 8-7 on the year with a 4.38 ERA but 1-0 in Philly, and that's all his new fans care about.

Five Things We Think We Think
1. Congrats to all the BLB All-Stars that were voted on by the fans. All though the All-Star game wasn't played once again, with many believing that will be the new norm, these players will go down in history as being Brewers League Baseball 2046 All-Stars.

2. One event that was held was the Home Run Derby that featured the best sluggers in the league. None other than Drillers star Robert 'Stretch' Jessee won it all after out-slugging Wilmington's Jayson Buenaventura in the final round. This is Jessee's ninth All-Star selection as he's hitting .340/.421/.630 with 25 HR's and 67 RBI's on the season. The soon to be 33 year old was the first overall pick back in 2031 by Toronto and is on pace for an 8.3 WAR year, which would be his best season ever. Talk about no signs of slowing down.
3. The Dinos signed their All-Star centerfielder Brian Wallace to a five year extension yesterday for a cool $98,000,000. Wallace, 28, was the 10th overall pick in 2028 by LAD and debuted in 2040 when he played 40 games in center. He has become the captain of the clubhouse and is hitting .306/.357/.458 with 8 HR's and 38 RBI's while posting a +7.5 ZR in center over 88 games this year.
4. The second half of the season is going to be wild as currently 20 out of the 24 teams show up on the playoff odds chart. In the Domestic only Hartford, Toronto, and Indy currently are at 0%, while in the Import it's lonely Baltimore. Considering Indy has won five in a row and are only 13 games behind the final wildcard spot, and Baltimore is only eight back...well anything can happen.
5. We're back at it with some fun match-ups this week and these are a few of our favorite: Pawtucket at Santo Domingo, Montreal at Dallas, and Washington at New York. Get your popcorn ready, it's going to be a fun next few months.
Trivia of the Week
