Pacific Roundup 2040.1
I decided to make a podcast. I'll probably make this a regular thing. Hope you guys enjoy! Brett, Fred, and Joe, please don't sue me.
If anyone can think of a better name, that would be great.

Re: Pacific Roundup 2040.1
Good job dude. I thought Pacific would be the toughest division at the start of the season and it might end up being that way in September, but the Frontier terrifies me so I have a hard time picturing a more difficult division. It's shocking that California and San Fernando are not higher up in the standings. They could turn it around quickly though and kill a lot of dreams. Hawaii should be in the thick of it in the end. They are most primed for a long run and with this good start I could see them doing it finally especially if they start buying.
I think it's interesting that the preseason predictions (for as much they are worth) had San Fernando over 900 runs, but one month into the season Hawaii leads the entire Brewster with 240 runs produced. San Fernando does have the next highest amount, at 215, so it's not even that close. If Hawaii can keep clicking like that they should take the division.
As far as a name, Specifically Pacific sounds nice. Good luck saying it on the podcast though.

Re: Pacific Roundup 2040.1
my offense is on pace for 967 runs, so that decidedly is not the problem. The problem is that I am on pace to give up 1107, which would shatter the current league record of 1073.

Re: Pacific Roundup 2040.1
Great work on this. I fell to using a written script for my podcast as I would have had four times the mumbles and filler words as you. You were dead on with your California analysis. I have three or four guys playing good baseball. In a clubhouse of 27, that's not going to cut it.

Re: Pacific Roundup 2040.1
I don’t have any names but I do have some suggestions. Many places in the podcast you said phrases like they are one of the worst teams at blah blah or one of the best teams or they are pitching pretty well, things like that. In those spots toss in a stat as proof. Like San Fernando’s pitching is awful as it’s team era is blah blah or it’s given up x number of runs more than the rest of the division.
Don’t worry about mumbling or hitting the mic or any of that stuff. Each podcast you do will get better and better as will your research for them.
Loved the shot at Portland for the smack talk. Toss fuel on that fire!

9:30...but the entire episode is good, especially if you're in the Pacific. Nice work, Taylor!
