2057.2 Franchise Record 101 wins

Post by ae37jr » Wed Jan 17, 2024 4:12 am

Franchise Record 101 wins Image One of these years we will catch Nashville sleeping and get first division title.
The Twin Cities River Monsters finished the 2057 season with 101 wins, setting the franchise record that was originally set back in 2042 with 97 wins.

Heading into September, it was unlikely that they were going to reach this feat, having won just 80 games at the time. But with a stretch of 21 wins and 6 losses in the remaining 27 games, including winning their last 8 games, the River Monsters topped the 100 win mark for the first time in franchise history.

Despite having won 90 games nine times in franchise history, the team is still yet to win a division title, nor a Landis or Brewster title. While the former is impossible to do this year, the latter is still in their sights.

Great finish! Both Twin Cities and Jax finished the year strong. It will be fun to see if things continue in the second season.

I think I left around when that shoe started to drop. Looks like Alan navigated it well which isn't a surprise.

You left at the same exact time. I was offered Charm City originally. Didn't want to take the job because you left the team in great shape and I wanted a challenge. Not saying I would have taken the team to the level Dave has though. I just enjoy tight budgets and getting the most out of 45 rated players.

I had the same feelings as you being given Rocky Mountain but I didn't want to wait around for that chance.
