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 Stove Moves of the Week

Taking a week off the hot stove. I am working on a tool to grab all the transactions and display them more easier. Check back next week.

Get on the Bus to Triple A (past 7 days)

  • Jason Kipnis - Matt's Team, 4/24 joins the 10K club
  • Willson Contreras - HvuSnMyBall, 3/16 and 2 points
  • Ryon Healy - Josh's Team, 4/26, 3.75 points almost joins the 10K club coming up 1K short.
  • Fernando Rodney - Underhochevars, -2.33 points with 8ER and 2BSVs...yikes
    F-rod sees how high his ERA is on the scoreboard
  • Noah "No MRI for me bro" Syndegaard - Stump Grinder's, 5ER in 1.1 IP and a long trip to the DL. Thor got hammered.
    Does it look like I need an MRI bro?

Puig Heat check

Time to check in on Puig. Our hero is 5/23 with a dong, 4 singles, 2 walks (plate discipline), and 7Ks (all bad called 3rd strikes) for 11.25 points. He even got to watch the epic back to back to back bottom of the ninth comeback from the dugout. #winning

Rundown 6/12/2017 - Jcomp edition

It was a big week across the athletic landscape as several sports and collegiate softball crowned champions. Nadal finished an all-time great run through the French Open, the Penguins won the Stanley Cup, and Lebron ended talk of the Warriors and an undefeated postseason. Meanwhile, Patty took the LOL season lead for all of 36 hours until TJS could finish his 100 hour work week and get back to his computer to “adjust” the scoring. We’re 12 days into the second streak month of the LOL year. I feel a bit like Bob Gibson probably felt in 69 after the whiners got their way and the rules were changed. Luckily enough we’re entering prime Cricket season which, outside of Russian Basketball, is my sweetspot. You guys better get ready for a load of Chris Gayle Hot Takes. Triple Frown We’ve seen six different horses win the six triple crown races since American Pharoah in 2015. While being a borderline sports degenerate is a necessity in the League of Legends, do any of us really care abou...

Rundown 4/17/2017

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 outin...
