#18 Looking to get off the Ground

Burlington Bombers

The Bombers have been able to stay consistent through out there history, even with the influx of different managers each season. The team has only won one American League North Division crown and on the flip side they have only been in last place once. I think this season all the different managers will finally catch up to them and a rebuilding season looks to be under way.

The total percentage of wins for the Bombers is .479 (543 victories and 591 losses). The most wins in a single season was 87 during season four. The most losses in a season being 97 during season three.

Brooklynpunx is entering his first season as the general manger of the franchise. Brooklynpunx has never managed a team before so it would be interesting to see if where he can take this team

#19 Trying to return to the Glory Days

Philadelphia HeadHunters

The HeadHunters started has one of the elite teams in the league during their first three seasons. The team even won there only World Series title during season three but has really fallen on hard times since then. The team has only gone 255-393 since winning the World Series, placing fourth place in the National League North every season since. The team is showed be improving real soon with the influx of young talent coming through the organization.

The total percentage of wins for the HeadHunters is .459 (520 victories and 614 losses). The most wins in a single season was 93 during season three. The most losses in a season being 114 during season six.

Fritz44 is entering his third season as the general manger of the franchise compiling a 113-211 record for a .348 winning percentage. Fritz44 can’t really be blamed for the problems the HeadHunters where having problems winning games before he arrived. The fans though are very excited about him turning the team around and heading back to the World Series again.
