We'll start this session off by saying, we really dont think Charlotte is cursed, but it wouldnt hurt if they could find a good Shaman to bring some positive energy flow to the Cougars.
This off season, Charlotte made two big moves - it signed one of the top FA relievers, RP José Ordóñez, to a 4-year, $20M contract to give some support to, and split time with, the Cougars stud Stopper, Keijo 'Coach' Reini. The other move was a trade for superstar C Roelof Klooster.
Ordóñez had been great for the Cougars until these last two games. Prior to the last two games, Ordóñez had pitched in 6 games for a total of 7 innings, with an ERA of 0.00, with 4 Ks and no walks. These last two games? A total of 2 innings, 4 ERs, 2 Ks and no walks. In his last game, Ordóñez could no longer gut through the strained abdominal muscle he was struggling with. The injury is a 2-week day-to-day injury but GM Golden has made the decision to sit Ordóñez down for the two weeks to ensure he fully heals ahead of the long, remaining season.
Klooster was traded right before spring training for a package that included super-prospect C Todd Tatlock. Klooster had a blazing spring training but has started the regular season off at right around his career average with a .269/.269/.462 slash line. Unfortunately, Klooster sustained a torn quad while running the bases and will be sitting out for the next 5 weeks.
GM Golden will have to find some sort of magic to keep the team on the projections it was seeing as the season started.

It was, but now that I've signed Klooster long-term I dont feel as bad about it.
