TC then traded a trio of players to make room For a Trio of young players being Promoted. He also signed a free agent pitcher who can eat some innings.

SUMMARY: Always the Winner of this Division . Last year was a suprise when the Justice finished second and went into the playoffs as a Wild Card. Atprasad knows he has a core of good veteran players who know how to win . So he just tweaked his lineup a tad. He let a few good free agents go and picked up 3  Comp picks. He then traded Colon to get back a R-5 player that got away. Right now he is dangling Barber on the wire for anyone who is willing to take on his salary. Atprasad then Signed a couple of stud pitchers from the Free agent pool. He promoted a setup guy that will finally get a shot .And finally brought in another Arm from a trade with New Orleans.

LAST SEASON RECORD:74-88


OUT: Bruce CogginF/A, Mark SmithF/A, Stubby RamirezF/A, Milt SnyderReleased



IN: Richard DuplerPromoted, Eswalin BenaventePromoted



SUMMARY: Always with one of the Highest payrolls in Wrigleyville the Posse has never played like a 100 million dollar team.. And last season the Posse was no different. They missed the playoffs and finished below .500. So With not alot of cap space. Illicit let several players go that were long in the tooth and that gave him 12 million in Cap space. After Arb signings there wasn't much money left so Illicit promoted a couple of nice youngsters and hopes that his club will bounce back after last season.


PREDICTION: 75-87 4th in the division

IN: Fernando ParkTrade(Kickapoos), William TabakaTrade(Kickapoos), Stretch DalyTrade(Kickapoos)


SUMMARY: Another year and another sub .500 year for the Charleston squad. Its not like nwsheehy007 isn't trying to win. He has improved this squad every season but they haven't responded. This year is no different. After letting a few fringe players go, Nwsheehy pulled off a blockbuster trade with San Francisco. In comes Stretch "my johnson" Daly ,Tabaka and Fernando "walk in the " Park.

PREDICTION:  81-81 3rd in the division
