Robert's Corner
What the heck .....
I know we need the water but I am tired of this damn rain. Sunday was such a beautiful day and now I see there is a chance of rain for Saturday. I'm just tired of this crap.We had a few issues with fields but we were able to get the games in.
We are now more than halfway thru our season. The playoffs are right around the corner. I expect the playoffs to start early May. So using my math I am thinking we will be starting our next season early June. I am hoping to go to a 14 game schedule. The biggest issue is the money. Our cost basis right now is about $120 per game per team. This covers fields, insurance, baseballs and other league expenses. To give you an idea of how things have changed over these last few years. We used to spend about $70 per team per game. Thats over 70% increase since COVID. I know other leagues have gone to at least $1,600 for a 14 game season. Shit I think thats alot of money but damn the league can't lose money and still exist. So thats my dilemma right now. We will see.

Playoff races
Thru 6 games
This is what the races look so far.AA division
The Braves hold a slim lead but the interesting part is that outside of the Devils Rays every team is still in the playoff hunt. These next 4 games will separate these teams.
A division
This division is starting to reveal the contenders from the pretenders. Spitfires and Tomahawks look like they will meet deep in the playoffs. The last spot is up for grabs. The Colt 45's and Bombers are in a tough battle for the last spot. The Bombers defeated the Colt 45's game 4 so they hold a slight advantage.
B West division
The White Sox with their strong pitching are pulling away and are almost assure of making the playoffs. The Rancheros are in the thick of things but have two ties that will have a big affect on their playoff chances. The Bandits, Bean Boys, and Ganaderos will have to figure out who's the last playoff team.
B East division
The Belltown Bombers lost their 1st game Sunday but still have a firm grip on the division lead. The Rangers are in good position to make the playoffs. The Cerveseros and the surprising Jurupa Expos are in a battle for the last playoff spot. The Cerveseros are coming off a big win over the Belltown Bombers.
