Week Twenty-One Recap (15-6): Ok, so its time to drink the cool-aid, make some more, drink that, make some more, put it in a gatorade bucket and go find yourself an inconspicuous spot behind the coach and wait for the final countdown.

ATLANTIC CITY SHARKS   364
TEAM TIMOSWAN                263



Lineup Moves:  Added Ender Inciarte, kept Chase Utley, and moved Delino Deshields to the outfield in what feels like a final set of lineup adjustments.  The boys posted a robust 226, without any off-day Waiver wire help and with 3 players posting sub five performances.

The Lineup as currently constructed looks like this.

C Buster Posey - drafted #29
*1B Kendrys Morales - undrafted/ FA pickup April 13th
2B Robbie Cano - drafted #12
3B Kyle Seager - drafted #52
*SS Brandon Crawford - undrafted/FA pickup May 21st
*2B/SS Ben Zobrist - drafted #141/FA pickup May 14th
1B/3B Anthony Rendon - drafted #32
OF Mookie Betts - drafted #49
*OF Starling Marte - drafted #42/FA pickup April 20th
*OF Ender Inciarte - undrafted/FA pickup August 28th**
*OF Josh Reddick -undrafted/FA pickup April 29th
*OF Delino Deshields -undrafted/FA pickup July 29th**
*DH Chase Utley - drafted #93/FA pickup June 21st**

* Claimed off waivers
**waiver wire starter - date given is date added to regular lineup.

Pitching Moves:  Pitching staff was wretched although I pulled closers and a starter from the late games on Sunday, being up by over 80 points at that point already.  Bullpen was weak with only five saves and Aaron Nola got blown up by the Cubbies.  Overall the staff posted a completely unacceptable 138.


Conclusions:  The pitching staff is still a tweak away from where I want it to be and we're down to the wire here.  The lineup is ready to go! Woo!


Pitching Staff as currently constructed:

*SP Aaron Nola - undrafted/FA pickup July 19th
SP Felix Hernandez - drafted #9

*RP Jeurys Familia - undrafted/FA pickup April 8th
