FMJRA 2.0: No Relief In September

— compiled by Wombat-socho

It was another .500 week for the Senators as we lost 2 of 3 in Anaheim to the Angels, the sole win coming on Jim Kaat’s last start as we managed to scratch out two runs against Tom Bradley, and that proved to be enough. Coming home to RFK, we thought we’d lose another pair, but after losing the first game to Phil Niekro, we battered Roger Nelson for four runs and lit up the Daytraders bullpen for five more, giving us a 9-5 win in the second game. Then in Game Three, we managed to pound Tom Seaver for seven runs and scored three more off the bullpen to win a 10-5 slugfest for Reggie Cleveland, who barely hung on through the fifth inning for his tenth win before Pat Dobson came in and pitched three innings for his third save. We end the week at 59-77, half a game ahead of the A’s, and almost certain to finish with at least 65 wins. Unfortunately, we’re not going to get much help from our September callups, who are either wretchedly lopsided right-handers who get shelled by lefties, Vicente Romo, or the kind of guys you get when you shake the glove tree. Tom Grieve has potential, but there’s no general manager slot on the roster.
