Welcome, Jack! As a retired newspaper guy, it’s heartening to see there are still prospective journalists out there. Enjoy the league!

Couldn’t stand facing that murderer’s row Chicago lineup, eh, Matt?

Well, welcome to the Heartland, Chad!

But I told the boys to at least make it look like they’re trying . . .

Hmm. They're not listening that well, are they?

That 2040 Chicago defense was due in large part to the start of the Jim Lorenzen experiment in CF (he was a 12-rated fielder at the time, which I can hardly even visualize). Manny Cleide was in RF (a 10-rated guy) and the infield was stacked with good fielders, too. There was just one teeny, tiny pr...

By the way, Ron, I probably don't say this often enough, but thanks for doing this. All of your studies add immeasurably to the BBA experience.

Think of it more as closing in on that first draft pick ...

You should throw those dividends into the Little Cal.

You’re just bitter that Chicago is breathing down your neck ... at 10 games out. Hope Yellow Springs can take the, um, heat ...

Some outfield changes/acquisitions have paid dividends ...

Well, Steam updated my game overnight ... so ... hmmm.

Chicago has 4 or 5 guys in the same boat as Kengos - Hao Hang, Mark Simpson, Aarnoud Budding and to some degree Rocky Wattson and Diesel Dave. Guess the league retired those juiced baseballs it’s been using ...

Winning through mediocrity - DATS the Madison Way!

Hey, wait a minute. That’s the Chicago way - we’ve got a whole Blueprint(TM) about it. Trademark infringement!

That is a very cool story - I would love to have seen those guys at their peak. Imagine the atmosphere in the stands that day. It clearly must have been electric to impress a 12-year-old boy to the point that he remembers it decades later. And you're right about taking the time now to talk parents a...

The heart wants what the heart wants ...

Aww, c’mon. I’m gonna miss those those 26-6 wins over Stillwater ...

At least we’ve still got Port Au Prince!

Hanging tough even with zero ... and I do mean ZERO ... offense. Sheesh.
