Hope there are top notch concessions to compensate for the onfield product. Waterloo has the anticipated Margate series today. Dinos start: Burton - was a 2 claim waiver last season and was up with the big club. Hope he could develop in a decent middle reliever or maybe a 4th or 5th starter. Knight - part of our excellent 2034 draft class, he's already spent 8 seasons in the minors and is slated for another in '41. Not expecting him to make his potential, but excellent minor league numbers suggest he will be an asset anyway. Herrera - a 40+ waiver claim, I consider him the worst prospect in my sstem. Homer chucking lefty. Haven't been able to cut him b/c of dat 14 pot.

My fan mood should be closing in on zero by now. The AI did a good job of getting my young players at bats at least. So I've got that going for me. Updated Monday, June 3 2019 @ 2:44:35 am PDT
