In a stunning development, the MLB has added two expansion teams to the league, the Utah Sharpshooters and the Florida Pirates. The teams will be mostly gray-bar players along with a few real players. Let's hope for the best.

I'm just gonna write about the games.

Opening day next!

Uhh.. Why not?

I just used a random team name generator so...Yeah.

There are also 2 Florida teams...

And how come there are 6 teams in the AL East and AL Central but only 4 in the AL West? That's just unfair!

It's almost like that in real life. The NL Central has 6 teams, and the AL West has 4. I'm excited for the games though!

4/2/08

(0-0) Los Angeles Angels
VS.
(0-0) Utah Sharpshooters

Los Angeles Angels - 4
Utah Sharpshooters - 2

It All started in the top of the second when McLeary got a first-pitch bomb for a home run. In the next frame, with runners on the corners, Napoli of the Angels grounded out for an RBI. But then in the bottom of the sixth, Anderson of the Angels crushes a bomb to right field to give them the lead. But then, Napoli hits a base hit wih runners on first and third to extend the Angels’ lead to two. In the bottom of the 7th the Angels still don’t let up, with another base hit by Anderson to make it 4-1. In the bottom of the ninth trying to start a rally, runners got onto 1st and 3rd with no outs. Tolar the pinch hitter knocked in an RBI with a double, with runners on 2nd and 3rd now. But, Lackey preceded to strike out the side to end the game.

BREAKING NEWS
After the game, Clontz said to be day-to-day after throwing a pitch and feeling pain in his left elbow on Opening Day. Clontz said, "It's nothing to bad. A strain probably. I won't miss my next start." Clontz pitched 4 innings letting up 7 hits and 1 earned run.

There's no Florida in the expansion team choices so I'm going to edit them to be Jacksonville. And that is what it's like in real life almost. I tried to put a fifth team in the AL West but the "even-numbered leagues" rule came into effect.



Proof.

@ LAA:

4/3: L 2-1

Next game @ Athletics tomorrow!

May I suggest a better logo than U

Thank you very much.

I was actually gonna ask you if you had any ideas through message.

Yeah. I just entered U logo in google images and found a reasonably small logo. Nice to see ya like it!

I'm gonna introduce agents. You can have 2 people if you want.

McLeary and Clontz. Best pitcher and HR hitter.
