2039.02 - The Long Beach Independent - Mediocre Season is Mediocre

.500 IS THE NEW WHATEVER

July 1, 2039
Long Beach, CA


Halfway-ish through the season, and the Surfers sit at 42-40 and in last place in the Frick League Pacific.

Well, that is if you count being 2.5 games behind the division leader as truly "last place."

Eleven of the 15 Frick teams have won between 42 and 44 games with only Omaha (38), Boise (38), Edmonton (36), and Vancouver (30) with less.

The FLP is the closest division, and the only one with all teams over .500. The Heartland is not far behind, with only Omaha under .500. This is perhaps unprecedented parity, to be so far into a season and have nearly the entire league in contention for a playoff spot.

The trade deadline will be upon us before we know it, and one can only wonder how the trade market will look if the standings remain similar to what they are today.

GM Still MIA
In what has become almost an afterthought halfway through the season, GM Stephen Lane has still not been spotted at Vito Costantino Memorial Stadium this season. AGM Carlos Reyes has been seen, and is assumed to be running the show. He still has not provided an official comment about the matter, but there have been rumors circulating. The Independent has chosen not to publish these rumors without substantiation.
