Talk about bittersweet...

Overall, I'm currently in 80th place with absolutely no hope of generating enough victories over the remainder of these seasons to even sniff at Round Two - yet I still haven't had either a SCHWARZE or a MAUCH during any round of games.  Had a whole bunch of 1-5's and 2-4's, but I haven't been shut out yet.

Back-to-back 11-win days (both times 3-4-4), the first time I've posted two consecutive days above .500. If I do that every day for the rest of the season, I'll finish about 20 games above .500 overall. .450 is a much more likely target.

Is there a division out there worse than this one?  There are 5 teams worse than the team winning this division, and three of those teams are in that same division.

Pretty darn awful...I've never been in a league that I can remember with a division this bad...

And I'm glad I'm apart of it!

Out of all 96 teams at that cap, only 16 are worse than the division leader. Of course, 3 of those 16 are in the same division. What's most amazing is that both ballantine and bigmc have teams among those 13.

If only this was the $90m division with my Marlins team, I might still be able to sneak into the cage as then I'd have an outside shot at 6 playoff teams!

Also, you gotta love the leader with the L9 and only losing 1 game to the second place team (2-8 in last 10).

My staff-leading Pedro in the clone league has a 0.92 WHIP...and he also happens to be leading my staff in losses, with 11.

Ditto for me...leads the league in whip at 0.87 and is 9-11.

Of course it worked. From W19 to L1 or, as it is universally know, "the agony of defeat."

13-5 today, easily my best day of the tournament. Still hanging out around .450 or so. Haven't had a team at .500 since the 2nd, so in a sense, this has been a really mediocre year (unlike my normal even years): only one team below .400, only two teams below .470 right now.

What the hell is going on with markeking's Silver King league?  Specfically, with elvisgump and sligthner.  Two of the three worst teams (out of 96) in the same league?  The other 10 teams in that league have no reason why they should win at least 85+ games with all those autmatic wins.

Both teams have been overwhelmed by massive pitcher fatigue. Neither team is remotely competitive now and that is likely to get even worse as the season winds down. My 19 game win streak was certainly helped by 3 games against each of those squads.
