Orioles with a Strong Start

Click the Title

In 2017 the Red Sox and Yankees fought over first place in the AL East, and many thought that would be the case this year but it hasn't as the Orioles have taken the lead in the East with a 22-8 record. But, the Red Sox and Yankees aren't far behind as the Sox are 2 games behind the O's and the Yankees are 5 behind the Orioles.
The Orioles are doing good because of the great starts of Starters Justin Masterson, Ray Holtz, and Rickey Romero.
Holtz is the real show off because in 4 games he is 4-0 with a 1.29 ERA and has 3 complete games, and one game that he pitched only 8 innings pitched. The innings eater in Holtz is doing so good I think because he hasn't given the game to the bullpen since I believe the Bullpen in Baltimore needs some work.

Memorable Moments in BMJ History: 2.0 Boda Cheats and Leaves

"Sometime this past week it was found out that a player on the New Haven Bulldogs overall and vitals were increased, this players name was Chris Thomas. When our BMJ insider Craig Peters asked Boda how this could have happened he said "I am using the 15.10 version of Mogul so there may have been a glitch." he also stated that "on my game Chris Thomas is an 81." Later in the week it was found out that more of the bulldogs players were changed, at this time these players names are unknown to me. After this was found out all the players that were changed were deleted.
Commissioner Nwuhockey gave Boda the chance to confess to cheating so he could stay here as a GM but he denied changing the players and left."

Interview with the Team from the Grand Canyon State

1. Which team do you see as the most competition for you the NL West?

Answer "I'm not worried about anyone(Class of the NL) as I will win the division VERY easily. With the way my team is playing, I wouldn't be surprised if I don't lose another game all year. My guys are playing very loose and having a great time out there; getting back to the basics. They really bonded over the off-season. The Rockies(RMel) and Dbacks rented a huge mansion out in Hollywood and just partied all winter long while having a BUNCH of sex with models. actresses, singers and strippers."

2. Will we see the DiamondBacks bid on any IFA's?

Answer "The Diamondbacks will not be dipping into the IFA arena this year due to the prices being bloated this early into the bidding process."

3. Do you think the DiamondBacks can win the World Series this year?

Answer "Of course I think the DBacks can win the WS this year when I said they might not lose another game all year. DUH!"

4. Who do you Value the most on your team?

Answer "I value DLC the most on the team because he is my "baby". We basically do everything together; Eat, shop, shit(two toilets next to each other), walks, and what
 have you."
