WHIV 2051.6- Who Are These Guys?

Post by recte44 » Tue Jul 19, 2022 1:44 pm

These aren't the back to back to back champion Las Vegas Hustlers the BBA has feared. Not even remotely close. It's been a bit of a struggle this year as the Hustlers have faced their share of adversity, but a new cast of characters has emerged and helped the Hustlers climb back into playoff contention.

Quintiliano Rodeia, RHP- Here's a guy who was knocked around a little in the UMEBA last year, but has signed with the Hustlers and immediately proven to be invaluable. First as a reliever, now as a starter. Huge, huge pickup.

Quentin Mullins, RHP- Kind of a Rodeia-lite. He has stepped into a rotation spot for a bit and that has allowed the Hustlers time to send John Rasmussen III to the minors to get himself together. Rasmussen III comes back this sim and Mullins will head back to the bullpen.

Rich Martinez, LHP- Old friend Martinez returned to the Hustlers and has been just about the most solid reliever on the club over the last couple of months.

Stephen Geloran, Jr., 2B- The power hitting, strikeout prone Geloran, Jr. has ultimately been a fine replacement for Damek Korbel (with Stewart Turton moving to SS to replace Korbel there). Surprise!

Michael Griffin, 1B- The Hustlers first round pick from 2048, he was thought to be someone who could make it to the BBA quickly, however he bounced around the upper levels of the minors until getting his shot this year. His performance has been outstanding and he's showing why the Hustlers thought highly of him.

Gamal bin Badr, RHP- Acquired from Nashville in the deal that sent Jen-kan Zhai to the Bluebirds, he's stepped into a BBA bullpen role with aplomb. His AAA stats (combined between NSH/LV) were silly: 37 G, 47.1 IP, 6-0, 26 SV, 19 H, 13 BB, 49 K and a 0.19 ERA. ZERO POINT ONE NINE!!!!!

Rich Martinez just needed some help from Hawaii Pitching Coach Tony Torres.

Lets hope you're not counting on Geloran to turn a timely DP in the Landis Series..... Watching that live Landis and him not turn a single DP in 2049 was miserable.
