May Flowers

In New Ro MLB, Pasqua was again able to handle Coach, defeating him 8-4 for his second substantial victory over the boys on High & Tight. Komplex Thoughts continue their dominance over all opponents handing Siegel and Prestige World Wide the 3-8-1 loss. With the victory, Komplex Thoughts have won at least 6 categories in every matchup this season.

Vinny Cenz was able to keep his head just above .500, managing to tie Brett despite another hefty offensive performance from the Laser Show.  Lanza's pitching finally decided to show up, forcing a tie with the increasingly powerful Binghamton Bombers.

In the matchup of the week, Claude held off Licky on the back of James Shields and a sparkling 0.88 team WHIP.  Team FranÒ«ais was able to solidify his hold on the South End division lead with a 7-5-0 win.

This Week's Matchups

Below Me (29-54-1) vs. Team Balliet (47-36-1):  Lanza looks to build on last week's tie and prove that he can hang with the big boys as he takes on Claude's reinvigorated team.

Komplex Thoughts (52-29-3) vs. The Cenzations (40-39-5):  Vinny can ill afford a big loss this week with Siegel hot on his heels in the North End race.  The Guru has obviously rigged his league so he finishes first.

High and Tight (41-41-2) vs. Laser Show Relax (32-45-7):  What do Coach Lap's fnatasy team and a lactose intolerance convention have in common?  The answer is simple:  No cheeses.  That will be a problem against Brett's big bats this week.

Madoff Like Bandits (43-37-4) vs. Prestige World Wide (37-42-5):  Last week, Licky had his sights set on first place, but after just losing out to Claude, will have to work overtime to stave off Siegel and the rest of the North End bottom feeders.

Matchup of the Week
Binghamton Bombers (45-37-2) vs.  OUCH!!! Benny Benny (38-44-2):  A little back and forth in the chat box about some bogus trades over the weekend makes this matchup one to keep an eye on as we enter Week 8.  Trailing the division lead by just a few games, the Bombers will be looking to make the South End a two horse race by week's end.  Steve Live must prove that he can beat teams other than Laps' if he wants to be considered a contender in this league.  Although, if he keeps typing in all caps in the chat box, it will be impossible to take him seriously.
