Knocking on the door

#1 Post by Leones »

Numerous teams punched their playoff tickets this past week. The Leones didn’t quit get that far but after a week that saw them go 8-2 and division rivals Coqui go 1-9 and Amsterdam post a 3-7 record they were able to push the division lead gap to a 11 1/2 games with a magic number of 3.

In AAA the Tinajon squad came up short in their playoff hunt. Their heartbreak is the Leone’s gain as some much needed help got freed up to join the club on the expanded roster. Notable among them are SP Enrique Vázquez, standout SP Jonathan Sherwin and RF Dave Hobbs. All three have a decent shot at staying in the bigs next season if they can demonstrate they are ready for the bigs.

Looking ahead the club continuers grinding through a 24 day stretch of play, entering the final 14 games. Arlington comes to town for 4 then the club will travel to Canton for a 3 game set. The last week sees the club at home hosting San Antonio for a remarkable seven game series.

San Juan certainly put up a good run, certainly put the scare into us for a while there. Feels like a proper rivalry now. :)
