Angels up 8-2. Sole possession of 9th. 0.5 back 8th.

Nice. Just saw. Jumping to 8th would mean a 300K difference in 1st round pool money. This upcoming draft is very deep so the position doesnt really matter as much as the slotting. The pool is everything.

It's more like 1.5 back of 8th unfortunately since the Phillies have the tiebreaker.

Twirly is right. Loks like its either 9th or 10th as this point. Hopefully Philly beats ATL tonight and puts us tied in record. The issue is Philly plays the Mets while we have the Rox.

Gotta give some props to Chris Carter. Playing in 158 games so far and jacking 40 HRs. Without a plan B at the position, he provided much needed stability.

Its trivial but why on earth is elmore starting game 162? Give reed a couple abs to close out the yr.

That was an interesting year. I think I'll look back on it fondly years from now because it will have been a big year for acquiring and developing young players and laying a foundation for a much more successful, consistent run than the underachievement we constantly saw in the first 10 years of the Mark A era.

Think I predicted their record dead-on, yay me. Interesting year for sure. Some good, some bad. It was a throwaway year for me so was never emotionally in and went pretty much as expected.
