[www.trhl.org]

Games Dates: May 28th-June 3rd. Rogers, Breakers, and Whitecaps are home 1st half; None is away 1st half.

1st half deadline is Friday, May 15th, 10 PM EDT. 2nd half results are due Monday, May 18th, 10 PM EDT.

deGRom, Wheeler, Kersahw. Good luck!

Please import the attached manager profile. Let the computer manager pick the starting pitchers. Please use the lineups with the following names:

vs Duffy - LHP Neutral
vs Wacha - RHP hurt LHB
vs Junis - RHP hurt RHB

Thanks

Starters should be Miley, Armenteros, and Thornton. Thornton will need to be activated from the DL before his start, demoting Armenteros.

Use lineup #6 vs Nova.

Pitcher bats 8th in all lineups, swap him with the #8 hitter before each game.

Bruce/Portland (series v Rogers):

I am planning to start Bucholz instead of Wacha, and potentially Holland instead of Junis.

Please let me know which lineups to use against Bucholz/Holland.

Thanks,
Ray

Thanks for the update Ray.

Use RHP Neutral vs Bucholz and LHP hurt LHB versus Holland.

Please import the attached manager profile instead of the one with my earlier instructions.

Game 1 - Austin Nola's slam in the second is all DeGrom would need, Sideburns take it 8-3. Game 2 - Sano breaks a fifth-inning tie with a three-run bomb, and UCity holds 9-4. Game 3 - By the time the 4th inning is over, BDM is on their 5th pitcher and the Anunnaki are leading 12-1, with the final ending up at 12-2. Buxton hurt for 8 days. UCA MP updated and good to go. Good luck.

Outlaws take first three from Hens.

BDM drops a close one in G1, 5-4, but rallies to take the last two and get the overall split.
Jeff McNeill notches 4 HR in the series. MP ready for the Pale Hose.

French Terriers visit American Terriers and drop 3 tight ones in Boston. 4-3, 3-2, 6-5(11)

Good luck in Broxton

Outlaws offense might be coming together, Verlander goes to 11-1, Pence becomes first big injury of the season.

Note, I disabled Pence, but haven't done anything about replacing him on the active roster yet. I'll figure that out after the period is over when I create the MP for the next one.

G1: Chinook rally from 5 run deficit and win on B9 doubles by Conforto and Bregman. TBC 7-6
G2: Buehler pitches a gem. 8 IP, 0 ER. Hechevarria w/ big HR along the way. SIS 5-0.
G3: Cole and Giolito battle to a draw. Rotisserie pen only allows 2 hits in 7 IP. Clutch single from Realmuto is difference. SIS 3-2 (13).

Portland sweeps.

Note: Bruce sent me an MP after game 1. I'm not sure if that causes an issue with importing for Greg. Thus just in case I'm attaching three files:

Game 1
Games 2 and 3
Games 1-3

Here is the file for Games 2 and 3

Here is the file for Games 1-3.

McCallions score 2 runs in each game but pitching isn't quite enough to make that hold up. Maine takes the opener 4-2 as all four runs occur via solo HRs. Tied at 2-2 in the bottom of the 10th, Acuna homered to deep left making it 3-2 Maine. [Naquin was injured for this game and 20 more days.] Narvaez homered deep to right center in the bottom of the 8th to tie the game at 2-2. In the bottom of the 9th, Jimenez homered to left scoring Sanchez and Kendrick (who had been intentionally walked) ahead of him making Maine a 5-2 winner.

Havana drops 2 out of 3 to Burlington.

Canons take 2 of 3.

Well that sucked. Temple City swept the Breakers in such frustrating fashion that I closed the laptop before the final three outs and prayed for a hard drive failure. No such luck.

breakers take two of three

Home field disadvantage continues, as, after sweeping Rocket at Rocket, Portland loses two out of three to them in Portland.

Thanks for waiting, Whitecaps get three in the ninth and then three in the tenth of the last one to take the series 2-1.

Since there were no first half results, I went ahead and played all six games. Entertaining series, basically all one run affairs. Caps take the first two and the last one as the teams split. Story and Flores each hit four homers.

I see that Craig now has posted results for those first three games; I don't know whether you use mine or his, but whatever the protocol is OK by me. For what it is worth, the Caps won two of the first three in both sims.

Wild back and forth series resulting in 3-3 split. MP ready.

Didn't see the Rattlers results so I played all six.

I don't think it matters which Whitecaps-Heroes results you take? Easiest to take Charles's results, which I haven't looked at but look functionally identical to mine although my roster was short.

Firedogs MP ready for Series 11

Brockton returns the favor. A little luck never hurts.
