Warehouse Wire 2046.06: Jimmies in as 5 Seed

[bcslouck]

The Jimmies are back in the playoffs since 2043. This time, despite being in the mix all year, they sneak in as the 3rd Wild Card team.

Boasting the best rotation in the JL and a sneaky solid offense that saw their overall numbers drop after a rough month, the team faces off with in-state nemesis Rockville for a 5 game set. Winner of this series most likely will move on to play Atlantic Division winner Montreal.

The bullpen has been an issue for the Jimmies in the 2nd half of they year. They are hoping the addition of a rotation arm or two to the 'pen will help set thing straight. Despite being the clear #2 starter for Charm City, there're speculation that Bronco Rojas may move to the bullpen in a high leverage role hoping his stuff will play up better in the bullpen. There was talk back in 2043 of doing it but ultimately, the decision was to keep him in the rotation. Mauro Ríos was the one sent to the 'pen, and struggled. Despite having a down year in the rotation, expect to see him be the #4 guy for the team this year.

The Jimmies went 10-7 against Rockville this year, which is good. But with a potential 3 games on the road in this series, that does not bode well for a team who went under .500 in such games.

It'll be a tough series for the Jimmies who are looking to win their first ever Geoghegan Round series.

At least Constable gets at least one of those road starts.
