New York, New York!

New York Highlanders


I will start this out with asking... Will New York finish above dead last this season? I will go on to answer this as well..... I think they will! New York, with their owner Jt3 have been improving game by game. With future All Star CF Albert O'Brien and RF Dingo Randall playing very very well. New York has probably the most future potential out of many AL teams. Currently they are .500 and in 4th place with a .281 team batting average. Only issue that New York has is to attempt to get the young pitching staff under control. It's only a matter of time before that team really starts to gel.


SP Robinson Dreifort is pitching just as most of us expected with a 6-1 record so far to start out the season. On the downside SP2 Birdie Key has very very terrible. He has very limited control and it's showing by posting a 8.63 era. Overall New York is probably an underdog and most will not see the true potential of this team but if things keep going the way it is they will end up sneaking a 2nd place finish and maybe even a wild card.
