Owner: Jay H
For a team that averaged 67 wins, this offense was surprise. Led by MVP Lou Gehrig, the Rage also two players top 25 home runs (Al Rosen and Pedro Guerrero) while Steve Evans hit 40 doubles and 13 triples.
The real issue with this team was the pitching staff. With an average starter ERA over 5.00 it was impossible for the offense to make up the slack. Of note, you may recall Zack Greinke’s success in the exhibitions games. His final re-sim line was ugly: 4.90 ERA, 1.61 WHIP, 185 IP.
While never a .500 team, in Sim 11 they scored 802 wins while in Sim 20 they gave up just 662. Had their offense and pitching staffs peaked in the same year, they would have won around 85 games.
