#20 Breaking the Glass Ceiling



Toledo Mudhens

The Mudhens started out very hot in the league during their first two seasons and then fell on some hard times after that. The team has only had two winning seasons during the last five seasons but playing in the National League East they have chance to win the division just about every season.

The total percentage of wins for the Mudhens is .482 (547 victories and 587losses). The most wins in a single season was 95 during season five. The most losses in a season being 105 during season three.

Cold_Beer is entering his second season as the general manger of the franchise compiling a 70-92 record for a .432 winning percentage. Cold_Beer is really in the beginning process of rebuilding the team. It might take a couple years to get away from a couple of bad contracts before the fans in Toledo begin to see the team turn around.

Future Outlook: Remaining the same

Division Championship: One
