They playing at the level we expected them to be at. They are clearly a WC powerhouse and their new balanced line-up means they cannot be exploited in any one aspect of their game. We forecasted that their overhaul which included a huge emphasis on pitching and defense might cost them in the offensive end of things. Initially it looked like we were wrong. Now it appears we might have been correct. Pitching and defense has been "shut down." Clearly they are among the best in the nation in those catagories. Offensively they have the firepower but they just don't seem to string together those big innings like last year. Lately, we have not seen them post 10-12-15 run innings back to back. Once they get clicking offensively we expect them to move to the next level, the final level in cop ball.

30 points. tied 13 at DEA Kickoff (non-points) and tied 9th at Vegas Bacon Ball (points). tied 9th in Riverside (points). 9th in World Series.

Of all the West teams, this one advanced the deepest in the WS Gold Division. They added some talent and are now focused on the ps.com circuit rather than staying in the local small market tourneys.
