#1 Light Year’s Ahead



Monterrey Stars

The Stars have been on a roll the last four years. Three World Series victories, four straight division championships, three different National League, MVP’s, two different National League Cy Young award winners, 14 players named an All-Star and they have won over 105 games each year. The sad part for the rest of the league is that it doesn’t look like the Star Juggernaut is going to stop anytime soon. So, congratulation to the Monterrey Stars for being named the USMLB number one franchise during the last seven seasons.

The total percentage of wins for the Stars is .613 (695 victories and 439 losses). The most wins in a single season were 114 during season five. The most losses in a season were 85 during season three.

Goldie1973 is entering his eighth season as the general manger of the franchise compiling a 695-439 record for a .613 winning percentage. Goldie1973 has been the best manager since his team made it to the playoffs; winning three World Series in five trips is a great average. Goldie also has the best playoff record at 36-20 record with a .643 winning percentage.
