| MVP: My biased pick is Horan, but could make a case for both Fano and Juarez Cy Young: Stewart should win it, though depending on what the algorithm prefers could be a couple other guys in contention. Anyone got any good rookies? |

| I played lots of rookies and they were, to a man, dreadful. Didn't manage 1 vote in either category. I didn't expect Juarez that far down. Can't complain about any of the winners. No gold gloves for Waterloo. Not surprising. We went from a 70 error team to a 100 error team changing only our 1B. Low roll season on both D and SP. Thanks again. Looking forward to the new season. |

| Congrats to St. Joseph and Hitmen for their first title. It's a great way to cap off the amazing rise to the top from Division VI. That is one of the greatest feature of this great game: the ability to let you really build your team from the ground up and take them on a Cinderella ride. Great season by Rancho Cucamonga and Nate. Two straight seasons on top of West, and a great regular season this year. Sometime the team just hit a dry spell at the wrong time. Best of luck to everyone next season! |

| @ML21 You are doing a great job managing the team. 3 playoff wins in 5 season is not an easy feat. I didn't even noticed that High Point changed ownership because the team remain very competitive from the last time that I played them throughout the upper leagues. I think you are doing the right thing going with the hot hands. When I first started, I was looking for high movement pitchers, but that didn't really work out. Then I tried at least having some baseline in velocity/movement/control, but the result also varies. There were simply too many pitchers with good ratings and cannot actually pitch (see my first 15 pot pitcher Cruz Zepeda and first 16 pot pitcher William Jacobs). I have been putting more stock into minor performance lately, but Ismael Corral didn't exactly light the minor on fire either. I feel that pitching is just very volatile. I suppose real life pitching is too. Take Ismael Corral for example. I didn't think he was going be good with that low of velocity. Then after the amazing start to his career and low HR numbers, I thought he was going to be the next great pitcher for us. Then he was borderline unplayable for his middle part of his career. Every season, I think he's going to turn it around, and he would slowly go from SP3/4 to SP5 to losing his job completely every season. Then this season he had a great start, was an all-star, and a very good season overall. Then there's Devin Patton. His CoS is only 10 and have no movement scouting comments. Usually this type of pitcher ended up as a bullpen arm for me. He ended up winning 4 straight Cy Youngs and is one of the main reason why we are able to be very competitive the last 4 season. Then he totally crap the bed the first half of the season. The second half of better, but still not as dominant. Finally he lost the game that officially eliminated us on the second to last game of the season. So yes, go with the hot hands |

| I looked at some stats, my FIP was lowest in the east, my HR and BB+HB was pretty average for the league, and my strikeouts was by far the highest in the league. We gave up an BAA of .266 which would’ve been second best in the league only behind our offense. I thought my team had some decent range but I could be wrong. We were about middle of the pack for errors which suprised me given how low my infield fielding is. Led the league in both OA and PB and were above average in DP and CS%. I saw somewhere that having a catcher with C rating helps with pitching and just realized my catcher did not have that. | ||

| Anyone got any early award predictions? I have a rookie hitting .380 with 10 HR through 145ish AB. | ||

| I haven't looked around the league, but Crawford certainly looks like an easy pick for ROY. I don't have a single rookie on the team this year... Closest is 23 year old Johnson - a rookie in spirit, but he got called up last year so he doesn't qualify. I am pretty happy with his performance so far though. Just not sure how much he can improve given the POT 11. His lack luster Control is a bit of a concern... I actually just drafted my first ever (after the draft change) POT 9, Oscar Small. Curious to see how he develops - hoping for a couple POT pops. Updated Saturday, April 4 2026 @ 10:10:34 am PDT |

| Thanks, good luck to you as well. Hopefully we got all that out in game 1, LOL. |
