Boston on a record setting pace

The Boston Red Sox, currently 34-107 (.241) are on pace to tie the Milwaukee Brewers for the all time lowest wins in Outahere history. The Brew Crew posted a dismal 39-123 (.241) record back in the 2010 season. Clearly, we still need to work on league balance as we should not have teams winning less than [...]

World Series Odds

I thought it would be fun to see what the simulator thought each team’s WS odds were. I went ahead and set the DH/Non-DH lineups for all likely playoff teams and also brought up any players who were injured but should be available for the post season. Results are based on 1000 seasons simulated. Overall, things [...]

Fortuño crushes 4 HRs

Benigno Fortuño of the Portland Scrappers led his team to an 8-7 victory over the Angels on Sunday, June 13th. He’s the first player this season to hit 4 HRs in a game.

His first three bombs were all solo shots, but the last was a 2 run HR in the top of the 12th inning which [...]

SP Brad Arnold: 2000th strikeout on April 3rd, 2022
Arnold has been a dominating pitcher throughout his Outahere career, but has always been plagued by health issues. He’s only started 30 or more games 4 [...]

The struggle for pitching

Seems that everyone needs pitching right now. Starting pitching, relief pitching, ace pitching, average pitching, and even “just give me an ERA below 5″ pitching. I think part of the problem is teams have severely undervalued top notch pitchers in the past. Most teams in real life would be lucky to have one Cy Young contender, [...]
