My team in the 5x5 league has scored a grand total of 7 runs in 9 games and been shutout 5 times. And my pitching staff has been very good - such a waste.

wow. first time and probably last time I can say that I Schwarzed the PM2 games. Out of the cellar I hope. Of course now I'm doomed to Mauch the next set of games.

11-7 on day 3, with my first ever Schwarze in the pm games. After a dismal start, we are near .500. I'll take it.

...and then goes out and throws a no-hitter his next start.

My 5x5 team scored 17 runs in the am game - more than they'd scored in the first 12 games combined.

It's been an odd start for me.  I'm very happy with my 25-17 record (i.e., a 96-win pace per team).  Every cycle has been either 4-2 or 3-3, so there's been no rollercoaster ride (yet).  I'm usually the first one to post my abysmal 1-run records.  But going into this morning's games, I've only played six 1-run games (2-4).  I did play three 1-run games in today's am cycle (2-1), so we're now an acceptable 4-5.  I'll take .500 in 1-run games every time.

Now that I've posted this, it's a lock that I'll go 1-5, 5-1, 0-6 in my next three cycles.
4-9 in 1-run games since I posted this (16-20 overall).   I'm an idiot.

27-24 in non 1-run games.
9-24 in 1-run games.

Not a single team over .500.  Fantastic.

Highlight of my mediocre (45-45) performance so far: Silver King throws a 84 pitch 2 SO perfect game (27 up 27 down)...

So I'm starting a contest - Which owner can fall the most games below .500 and make it back to .500?  
I sit at a -18 so far.

Congratulations on the perfect game! With the DH and the fielding normalisation, I didn't think that would happen.
