Week Nineteen Recap (13-6): Dancing with the Devil in the pale moonlight

ATLANTIC CITY SHARKS   379
SPACE WRANGLERS            337


Lineup Moves:  Added Delino Deshields for injured Christian Yelich to regular lineup with  -4 result.  Deshields struck out 11 times.  Waiver wire starters added a +7 but the regulars were just plain awful.  8 of 13 Regulars posted totals under 10 points.  In total the lineup struggled to score 149 points.


Pitching Moves:  Added Drew Pomeranz to bullpen, Lance McCullers to Rotation.  Unit was a tick off and posted a total of 230 points, going 5-5 with 8 saves.


Conclusions:  Still tinkering with the lineup, but I don't think it will ever be the dominant 200 point a week juggernaut like it was last year.  The Bullpen still doesn't feel quite set as Carson Smith has not locked down the closer's job and Pomeranz is a part of a closing committee.
