Brooklyn State of Mind: Robins Have Winning Sim To Start? (2050.2)

[lordtoffee]

Despite the Robins having an interesting offseason in the tabloids, it turns out that this team at least got off to a good start. And to add to the shock, it was on the road against arguably the two best teams in the Atlantic! When we asked someone at Katz's Deli what he thought about the Robins after the first week, a student at St. Johns had a confused look on her face. "Heuring actually had a good week against actual good teams? Nothing surprises me about New York anymore. You gotta wonder if he is doing something shady. Is he a former Illinois governor?"

Rumors are that in the executive suites in Charlotte, the President of Baseball Operations was smiling for the first time in months, and enjoying some Carolina BBQ that he got on a "scouting mission". The highlight of the positive start was the Robins scoring 5 in the 16th against Jacksonville to get the win on the road. The talk amongst the 2 people camping out for Opening Day tickets at Flatbush are wondering what Chris McFadden has to do to get Player of the Week. The guy is hitting .453 with 5 RBIs.

Now, I can hear those saying "small sample size", and "This won't last", and they might be right. But no matter what, the Brooklyn Robins are tied for the division lead in 2050 at some point. That's baseball, Suzyn.
