With 5 games left in the 2013 The League of Extraordinary
Gentlemen is a giant clusterfuck of Mediocrity that would make Mizzou fans
blush. The only team that looks like a lock for the playoffs started out the
year 0-3 and the team that started 5-0 is currently 1 game above .500. To make
matters even more confusing Three of the Four Highest scoring teams last week(Blanco’s,
HBT’s, Yell) wouldn’t even make the playoffs if they started today.
Let’s take a look how these teams sort out and their chances
for making the playoffs.
Ticket Punched
Furbush Fisters (11-6)-
Despite
scoring 417 pts last week the Fisters squandered a 100+ pt lead in the final
day and lost a close ne to Rebel Yell. If Trout and Fernandez keep playing like
stud’s the Fisters should have no problem from here on out including 2 gimmes
against the Elephants and HBT’s.

Anything Could Happen
Billy Buttlicks (9-8)-
The
Buttlicks faced the Cano’s last week and ended up on the wrong side of the
Cripple Fight losing by 5pt. Their schedule toughens up a bit this week when
the scorching hot Blanco’s come to town. Big rematch against the Cano’s to end
the season.

Paddle Your Own Cano (9-8)-
This team is
4-8 over their last 12 games and seem to be tailing off as we reach the dog
days of Summer. They were able to eek out a win last week against the Buttlicks
and really need a breather this week against the Elephants.

Crocs In Florida (9-8)-
All is not
well in Allen Bairds office after a pitiful 210pt performance this week. With
the 1st place Fisters coming to town this week the Crocs may want to
stock up on some Astro Glide.

Penn Valley Pooches (9-8)-
The Pooches
coasted to an Easy W last week despite not playing well. Rumor has it that 1B
Eric Hosmer attributes his second half turn around to being on a tight lease
after partying a bit too much in April and May.

Los Gringos Blanco’s (8-8-1)-
The Blanco’s
put the league on notice last week with their 470pt performance. They certainly
have some work to do if they want to make the playoffs but GM Keane Horner
knows what it takes to win a championship.

Rebel Yell (8-8-1)-
Rebel Yell
appears to have recovered from their recent swoon and knocked off the 1st
place Fisters with a furious Sunday Rally. The schedule doesn’t cut them any breaks
to end the year but Starting Pitchers Jake Peavy and Max Scherzer plans to drag
this team to the playoffs on their backs.

PV Predators (8-9)-
The
Predators took a tough L last week against The Elephants that may just cost GM
Harrison Poole a chance at the playoffs. They have 2 gimme’s to round out the
year and need to beat Yell,Crocs or Buttlicks if they want to make something
happen in September.

Down But Not Out
Hidden Ball Tricks (7-10)-
What to Make
of the Ball Tricks? They put up 400pts last week but could not secure the W
against the Blanco’s. While they still control their own destiny they pretty
much need to win out if they want a shot and hoisting hardware over their head
this year.
