2054.06 - Shark Bites - End of 2054

Post by Lane » Mon May 08, 2023 10:43 am

GEAUXINUE HITS, SURFERS MISS

Offseason acquisition Ryan Geauxinue finished the season with a batting average of .332, leading the Frick League. The batting title is Geauxinue's second, after his .359 number was best in the Johnson League last season. In total, he hit .332/.373/.430 (115 WRC+) and with excellent defense, totaled 4.2 WAR.

His contributions helped the Surfers rank 3rd in the Frick League in Batting Average and On-Base Percentage, but the team was a bit unlucky with sequencing, scoring just the 7th most runs in the league.

With the regular season ending in a tie for the 4th Wild Card with Twin Cities, the teams played a closely contested Game 163. The front office took a risk and started rookie Joe MacLeod, who pitched better than anyone could have expected, allowing just 2 runs on 8 hits over 6.2 innings.

Unfortunately the Surfers' offense was unable to push more than two runs across the board against TWC follower Erik Brooks and succombed to the River Monsters in a 10-inning loss to end their season.

With the bulk of offseason signings being multi-year, the Surfers will return the same core for the 2055 campaign. They're surely look to improve around the margins, but will mostly be looking for some better sequencing luck to return to the playoffs for the first time since 2045.
