An excellent job, guys!!! :-)

Very good guys! :)

 

The following managers incurred overusage of 10 or more games, but less than 19 games.  They become permanent penalty teams because of this. 

 

Lafayette Blue Sox (Steve Ehresman) (10* games)

Phil Linz  21 AB (4)

Joe Nossek  13 AB (2)

Larry Jackson 2 ST (4)

 

Cleveland Spiders (Chris Williams) (11* games)

Hal King  9 AB (1)

Joe Torre  12 AB (2)

Bill White  5 AB (1)

Tommy Helms  11 AB (2)

Richie Allen  14 AB (2)

Gene Alley 16 AB (3)

 

Need to toe the mark just a bit better to avoid this, guys. :(

 

The good thing is nobody lost their first round pick completely this time, as no one went over 20 or more games.  Overall, one of our best efforts on a league wide basis.

 

Best,

Gary
