..... Montreal Pitching Leads the Way!! .....
.....
After back to back 17-10 months to start the 2046 season the Montreal Blazers kicked it up a notch and won 19 games in June. Tabbed to win just 81 games in the preseason the Blazers finished June with a 53-28 mark that led the entire Brewster Baseball Association. Boasting just a league average offense Montreal has used a Johnson League best pitching staff to maintain their winning ways. The staff took on some changes in the offseason that included the promotion of two rookies to take spots in the rotation vacated by a trade and a move to the bullpen. Rookie Davey Penn has pitched well this year but June was his best month by far. Penn won three games against zero losses while posting a 2.16 ERA in 33 1/3 innings for the month. The guy Penn replaced, In-sung Yi, seems to be settling into his bullpen role the way the team had hoped when they made the switch. Yi leads the team in strike outs with 71 despite pitching just 42.2 innings. June was also his best month with a 1.29 ERA with 24 strike outs in 14 innings. The other rookie, Antonio Rivera, is the only pitcher on the staff with more than 20 innings pitched to hold an era over four. His 4.36 ERA isn't awful by any extent but some in the organization would like to see what 2046 first round pick Jason Hurt can do at the Brewster level. Hurt has dominated AAA since signing after being drafted with the 21st pick in June.

1B Lineu Aldo continued his strong season throughout the month of June. For the month he hit .330 with 17 extra base hits. He knocked in 11 while scoring a team best 20 runs. After three sub standard seasons catcher Joe Bradshaw has finally played up to expectation bouncing back with a season that puts him on pace for a 5 win year.

Thanks Tyler. It helps to have a real life team with the same name to find action shots to play around with. I hate putting the face gens on a real background, it looks pretty bad.
