The Gloves shall remain in an off position until further notice.

So, as requested by the Farts, here's the update on their scouting report. Yay! What I wrote previously is in bold and the order has been revised given what they showed last time.

1) Jeremy
New to the team. Limited scouting on him. Little deep power, but good linedrive gap hitter. Trouble hitting down right field line, but hits to right center well. Generally a gap to gap hitter with little attempts at the lines. May bat 2nd. Often gets himself out with bad pitch selection.
Well, apparently the little guy can hit wherever he wants. Good for him. So, to revise, showed no power against us but hit linedrives down the left field line and into right center. Still gets anxious at the plate, doesn't like taking pitches. Limit to singles.

2 Ben
a polished left handed hitter with occasional deep power. He tends to be a linedrive pull hitter but can occasionally hit the left field gap. Generally gap power, no real power to left, deep power to straight away right only.
Showed mostly pull power against us. Exploited right field all day but could have been limited to 1 or 2 hits with better right field play. Gets super competitive easily.

3 Rice
Could be batting anywhere from 2-5 as with Ray, Kyle, and Darryl. Says he changed his swing this year, last year he hit poorly against us. No power to right field, moderate power to left with a fly ball tendency. Best suited for linedrives up the middle to the right side. Did hit 2 "homeruns" against the Collar, at least one was a misplay by Collar leftfielder.
Still pretty much dead on. Didn't hit that well against us. Apparently didn't hit very well against the Pencil when they lost. See what he brings to the table this evening.

4 Darryl
Probably the most power on the team. Likes to hit long fly balls but is smart enough to take a single if the team needs it. Knock on that is that he can't do it consistently, sooner or later he will fly out to left center field. Power to all fields, moves his feet well to hit to right field. Could go 4-4 or 0-4 depending on which Darryl shows up. Challenge?
May actually play tonight as forecast doesn't call for rain.

5 Kyle Jacobs
May bat earlier in the lineup, deep power to right center to left. Inconsistent swing, can hit long flies or pop the ball up to shallow outfield, no power to right, inside out swing that carries the ball, oddly, from left center to center from a right handed bat. Trouble hitting singles when required.
Well, now we know he reads the blog regularly and likes to show up the Management. Points for that. Still, he'll end up 2-4 with 2 singles or doubles and 2 fly outs. You can set your watch to it.

6 Ray
Formerly a flyball pull hitter, changed his approach is now primarily linedrive spray to middle and to the right side. Likes to hit the ball on either side of the second basemen. Has some power, usually declines to show it now. Coaching has made him a smarter hitter. Still a douche.
The Social Chair wants to show that the loss to Pencil was a fluke and they can beat the best team in the league twice in a year. Scouting report is accurate. Smart and likes to take advantage of weaknesses. Maybe he'll pitch again? We can only hope.

7 Barb
No book on her really. Tends to pull, no power.
Slightly more of a book. Still the same. Nice girl though.

8 Second base girl (Jeannette apparently)
Always forget her name, haven't seen much of her, plays a good defensive second base I'm told. Book will come out after I watch her swing.
Still have no idea, didn't play last time.

9 Fart Lisa
A blog favorite, solid hitter linedrive to all fields, can beat outfielders that cheat because she's a girl (I think)
Didn't play last time. Scouting report still seems accurate.

NA Whiskey Frank
Left handed, mostly pull, not too much power, may not play because he's too drunk. Brings a bottle of whiskey out when he plays. Gets major points for that.
Dead pull hitter, dead whiskey drinker. Killed us to right field. Doesn't matter now, won't be there tonight.

10) Bearded Jeans guy
Plays outfield, wears jeans, little else is known. Probably a Willie Nelson fan.
Wasn't there. Unclear.

11) Julio
Didn't have a report last time. Right handed hitter with limited power. Ground ball and line drives to shallow left-right center. That's all I got.

12) Cara Avec C
Another blog favorite, sometimes catches, bad at Street Fighter
Still love her but she won't play because Ray doesn't play her against winners.

13 Khaleef
Easily the fastest guy in the league. It's not even close. He will have two hits most likely depending on how his first hit goes. He likes to hit the ball on the ground but has difficulty doing it consistently. If he starts off with a ground out and/or a pop out, he tends to start popping the ball up. Little power deep.
Fallen out of favor with The Museum. Bats way down in the lineup. Odd. Easiest way to give somebody a complex.

  1. Wish I would have read this before the game, so I could have stymied the report to the tune of 4 home runs..
