Arcs of Triumph: 25.05 June Players of the Month
Still trying to find a balance of focus on my team and the league in general. I decided that a shift to a monthly team article and more EBA/MBBA focused articles between would be better served that three sim posts a week.
After a decent start to the season saw us sitting at .500 at the end of May, some Paris fans thought this season may finally be a season of change, but an 11-15 record in June was a cold bucket of water on those dreams. The offense has been good, bordering on excellent at times; but the Patriots have been let down by pitching (the rotation specifically). The baseball gods didn't do the Patriots any favors in June either, with two of the team's starters suffering season ending injuries. Brian Bright, who had been a pleasant surprise since being picked up off waivers, tore his flexor tendon in his first start of the month, and Moses Tallchief may miss the rest of the season with elbow soreness. Paris was dealt a further blow when breakout outfielder Pancho Martínez tore a muscle in his back tracking down a David González fly ball. The season sits at a crossroads with the Patriots sitting last in the West and three starters out for the season.

I have to say I have enjoyed how much writing you are doing. I may not comment on everything all the time but I have been reading. EBA is pretty interesting now that its all human gms.

Thanks, I'm not a really creative writer (like Ron!), but I do enjoy writing on a more data/historical driven angle. Glad at least some are reading

Re: Arcs of Triumph: 25.05 June Players of the Month
I think I'm going to do the same thing. Three sim posts a week is a lot, and it would probably be better doing a month in review so that I can write more things like EBA All-Star Game reviews. Not to mention spending more time to get to know the big league.udlb58 wrote:Still trying to find a balance of focus on my team and the league in general.

Anyway thanks for writing, and hopefully your injury luck improves for the rest of the season.

Thanks. Despite losing about the top half of our roster for chunks at a time (Medrano, Carlton, Altabani, Martínez, Wouters, Morrow, Texier, Bright, and Tallchief have missed 4+ weeks). On the bright side, the bullpen and bench have stepped up.Lane wrote:I think I'm going to do the same thing.
