AL and NL:
Runs Scored - 8th
Batting Average - 8th
On Base Percentage - 7th
OPS - 7th
Batting WAR - 8th
wOBA - 6th
HR's - 9th
SB's - 22nd

being in the top 25% isn't that bad

Spent the entire year in 7th, 8th but your team saved you from further humiliation with a hot September. There were a lot of things you said, let's see if we can count the Ls

Win AL East
Finish with 1st or 2nd ranked offense in entire league
Marino was going to still produce with another one of your pro tips that we all love to lol at
Alberto Martinez was ready to pick up any slack
Lawrence Hayes was a great addition
Vice 3 peat
Orange County has a bad enough record for a top pick

At least a Canadian team won it all for the second time in NDL History, Toronto winning it in 2046.

im gonna say a lot of things again this year too so get your pen out and keep note.

also I like the excuse that "well Vice had a hot September".. Did they finish top 5? yes or no? i think the answers yes.

I also enjoy that you were plotting out my season. I live rent free in your head and its absolutely wonderful.

Can we ALL agree that he is NOT top 5???...in any of those categories...

Decided to see how the preseason predictions faired now that the season has concluded...

Category Actuals (rank) - Preseason Predictions (rank) = +/- (+/- rank)
Wins 95 (8) - 74 (22) = +21 (+14)
HITTING
Runs 708 (18) - 674 (24) = +34 (+6)
Avg .276 (6) - .273 (9) = +.003 (+3)
HRs 122 (30) - 104 (30) = +18 (0)
SBs 185 (7) - 200 (6) = -15 (-1)
PITCHING
RA 573 (1) - 712 (16) = -139 (+15)
ERA 3.25 (1) - 4.11 (15) = -0.86 (+14)
Ks 1380 (4) - 1332 (6) = +48 (+2)
BBs 445 (18) - 478 (19) = -33 (+1)

So... tremendous improvement from preseason predictions til final outcome. From predictions that had us missing the playoffs by 10 games to being 4 outs away from being crowned...I'm happy to say I'm excited with the outcome and look forward to making a couple more moves to hopefully get us all the way to the top.

Which is exactly what I said they were at best, so I'm not sure exactly where you're going with this except trying to turn the argument from your epic failure into something you think you can argue into a win

You can't help yourself to hit reply so I'm engrained as much into your head as mine. Big mouth, little results, can't admit anything... The story of Nick Wadden

And, my 2 cents...it has nothing to do with living in anyone's head...sometimes people just need to be knocked down a peg or 2 from time to time. Remind them of where they really are...not where they WANT to be...

League = AL

Does anyone care about the NL? I’m confused.

Bring MIAMI to the NL Westtttt. #thewestisthebest

Whatever you do Nick, just don't make a post about Tom Brady and/or Drew Brees!!!

League = Major LEAGUE

Feel free to be more specific versus so vague, pal.

AL = American LEAGUE

Remember when Nick added me to his List of teams he wants to see lose?

Fun times.
