The Baseball HOT STOVE IS ON FIRE, a new legend emerges, and much more on this weeks' RunDown.

New Legend

We had a new legend emerge on the scene this week, giving League of Legends a test spin, checking out what it's all about. Everyone extend a warm legend welcome to Josh Dorr, AKA Dorrknob. Coach Dorr seems legit already racking up some points in MLS. Only true legends score points in MLS. Welcome board Josh. This ups our Legend Josh Count to a solid 2.

HOT STOVE MOVES OF THE WEEK



Legends we haven't seen a HOT STOVE like this in the long storied history of League of Legends Baseball. If it were not for, how should I say it, a Stalinisticish like Transaction Limit of 10 the STOVE would go NORTH KOREAN NUCLEAR. You can translate that how you wish cause the commish doesn't really have a good bead on foreign affairs but the Kim Dong Jong dude is blowing up missles and throwing parades.
  • Ervin Santana SP, picked up by Lime in the Coconut, POW! 32.5 point outing against the White Sox. Complete game shutout with 8Ks. 
  • Jason Vargas SP, picked up by PattyV for the start against Oakland 4/13. Pitches a 7.2IP Gem with 8Ks netting 23.17 points
  • CC Sabathia SP, Stump Grinders with the pick for the 4/15 start vs the Cardinals. Nets 20.33 points in 7.1IP with 6Ks. This has to be the absolutely worst baseball matchup imaginable. Who do you cheer for in Yankees vs Cardinals....no one really.
  • Bartolo Colon SP, Stump Grinders with another clutch pitching move snagging Big Sexy for his start against the Padres. Second team to own Big Sexy this week as Hits 4 Ks picked him up for the Miami game on 4/11. Big Sexy only scored 1 point for the Miami game which leads us to believe Big Sexy likes the West Coast sun better than the East Coast Sun.

Bus to Triple A



  • Clay Buchholz SP, picked up by Lime in the Coconut just in time for his 4/11 start vs the Mets. Kablooie -.17 points 2.1IP 6ER
  • Steven Wright SP, picked up by Hits for Ks for the 4/12 start vs Baltimore...BOOM -2.67, 1.1IP 8ER. Back to back Dingers in the first. First batter he faced in the second a dong out to right. 2 Batters later Chris Davis hits a massive dinger to right and at this point Wright's night was over.
  • Dansby Swanson - PattyV, 2/20 this week with 4Ks and a total of 1 point, sounds like a Braves Batter to me.
  • Sam Freaking Dyson - Here's My Donation,  2.1IP, 5ER, 2 Blown Saves -11.17 points. I didn't even think negative double digits was possible. Come on up to the front Dyson you can drive the bus this week. Dyson is out as closer paving the way for the Matt Bush era in Texas.
    "Bro your pitches are worse than Matt Bush's rap sheet"

Puig Heat Check

America's favorite hustle player added another dinger to his total this week. Racking up another 23.25 points and stealing another base. Hard to argue he is not the early front runner for best Dodger OF and quiet possibly unanimous MVP at this point in the season.






On A Boat

Next week I will be taking the family on a boat for some R&R. I am leaving the league in the semi-capable hands of jcomp. Not even sure I will have internet at all so consider this a chance to make up some ground as we head into a busy LOL month of May. Perhaps some sucker will leave their hot spot unsecured and I can bootleg some bits to make my legendary 10 roster moves.

The fires are out, the dust has settled, the League of Legends Baseball draft is complete. Chiefs617 shows us how to almost be a basketball champion in 7 weeks, Final few days of streak, and more in this edition of the Run Down. Almost Champion Chiefs617 has had an impressive 7 week stretch in NBA. Ownership changed hands Feb 1st as Sonderman evacuated his post as legend prior to Season 3 starting. From that moment on Josh's Mediocre Team buzz sawed through the competition with an impressive 6 game winning streak including wins against the top 3 teams. His luck ran out this week in the playoffs against Quebec Kids setting the stage for an epic showdown between Tower of Power and Quebec Kids for NBA league champion. The season series is split 1-1 so it should be an epic match up. March Madness Dumpster Fire We have a whole pile of dumpster fire legend brackets. Who will rise above the ashes to take first place? If UNC wins then thejoestory and PattyV will own the top 2 s...

Rundown 5/1/2017

Welcome legends to the RunDown May Day 2017 Edition. Commish goes on a boat, First Leg of the Triple Crown, and more in this week's edition of the Run Down Triple Crown We kick off the first leg of the Triple Crown showdown. Early odds are posted on the site. Go pick your horses and get ready for the most exciting 2 minutes of the first weekend in May (assuming your life is pretty boring the first weekend in May). http://www.thejoestory.com/lol/triplecrown Cruisin I am back on dry ground legends. If vacation taught us anything it taught us that I should just leave my baseball team alone. Let my team cruise (get it...yuck yuck) into first place dominance and just stop making moves. Took the family on our first cruise last week. First night of the cruise had me sicker than Noah Syndergaard owners today. Never spewed but first night had me thinking never cruise again. By day 2 it was a lot better and we had a great trip. Enough of that already how about some baseball. Hot S...
