The Week in Review Another successful week for the Brisas, who have started to pile on some runs in their favour on the run differential. A 5-1 record on the week, including three shutouts, sees the Brisas extend their lead at the top slightly to two games over Jerusalem, with long-time leaders at ...

The Week in Review Owing to other commitments, it's a shorter programme of Brisas Watch this week, but that doesn't stop the action as the Brisas continue to make noise at the top of the GBC. After a slight slump over recent weeks, they put together a big week including a sweep of the fellow post-s...

BUA @ JER Game 1 – BUA 7 JER 8 (11) Buenos Aires start the week by giving up a 6-2 lead late on, as well as giving up a further tying run in the 9th after a Roy MacGugan home run, one of three on the day for the designated hitter, a day where he also scored a single and walked twice. Juan Guzman pu...

TOK @ BUA Game 1 – TOK 3 BUA 7 A solid performance against a stubborn Pearls team, with starter Antonio Ramirez striking out 4 in 5.1 innings. He's given up no more than 2 earned runs all season, with is ERA now sitting at 3.04. There are multi-hit days for Enrique Hernandez , Andrew MacColl and Ty...

SAO @ BUA Game 1 – SAO 0 BUA 1 An early RBI-single in the 1st from Cesar Torres is enough to see the Brisas through a difficult first game of the series, with both teams accounting for just one extra base hit between them. Starter Ferede Keohi strikes out 5 and gives up just 4 hits in 5.2 innings. ...

BUA @ CAI Game 1 – BUA 9 CAI 6 A game of high offense ends with the Brisas coming out on top, as the teams share over 30 hits between them. There were big games for Mark Moon , who went 4-5 with a double, and Chad Edwards , who went 3-4 and drove home three, including a 2-run home run. Starter Rich...

SYD @ BUA Game 1 – SYD 5 BUA 3 The Brisas blow an early lead in the 6th, with starter Antonio Ramirez and reliever Dani Martinez combining to give up three runs. It had been a solid outing for Ramirez up to that point, and ended with two earned runs given up in 5.0 innings. The offense can’t bail t...

Opening Day Roster After ending Spring Training 15-15, GM Swain was left with some decisions to make when it came to cutting down the roster to 27. The biggest name who didn’t make the cut was new signing Juan Guzman , who will start the season in the ABA with his minor league option. Expect him to...

Great job! Spot on too.

Hope I've done the team justice, and best of luck for the season!

It was a tough 2056 season for the Madison Wolves, who ended 7th in the Frick Heartland Division as their postseason drought extends to seven seasons. They are also on a run of just two .500 or greater seasons in that time, last achieving a winning season in 2054, and look to be in the process of re...

I went through a wheel of names doing an elimination on each unpicked team until I ended up with Madison, so I guess I'll take them!

Late Off-Season The Brisas continued to make moves in Free Agency, with GM Conor Swain filling out other key areas which required reinforcements. Where the beginning of free agency saw Swain pursuing more bats, most recently it has been the pitching corps which have been getting attention. With the...

There’s no guarantee with sporting comebacks, as the Buenos Aires Brisas GM Conor Swain is only too happy to joke about when talking about his time playing college football in the UK. “I lost several months of my second year to a nasty case of shin splints! I was never the same after that, and I mis...

https://statsplus.net/brewster/reports/news/html/images/person_pictures/player_46879.png The off-season is now in full swing, with plenty of rumour surrounding the Brisas as they embark on their first full season under the stewardship of Conor Swain. Swain has made no qualms about wanting to elevat...

Winston was robbed of GBC POTY!

Strange because he never gave me a reason to keep him really. His ratings are obviously incredible, and some of his peripherals were decent this season (e.g. 94 FIP-), but I just couldn't afford to take up that option without being safe in the knowledge that he would be POTY level. I'm sure he will ...

This was always going to be an interesting off-season for the Brisas, and with the 2056 season now officially over, GM Swain has already made some big decisions, and there have been some casualties. Deron Alexander has decided to void his option for 2057. He had found himself out of the rotation tow...

I'm here to make the case for either Winston or Ramirez to be voted Pitcher of the Year. They're about all the team were good for this year!

CAI @ BUA Game 1 – CAI 5 BUA 4 (10) The Brisas lose out in another close game, losing out in extras. César Torres goes 4-5 with two doubles, while Cris Martinez continues his hot streak with yet another home run. Marvin Winston strikes out 7 in 7 innings, while young closer Baz Badr gives up the ga...

BUA @ JER Game 1 – BUA 4 JER 6 A rare disappointing outing for starter António Ramírez , who gives up 5 earned runs and 7 hits in 5.1 innings. The only bright sparks of offense come from bit part players Talbot Purcell and Cris Martinez , who put up multi-hit games, the latter hitting his 2nd home ...
