BB's Bold Team vs Yout Don't Know Bo

Result: BB’s Bold Team keeps rolling toward UTI greatness, while You Don’t Know Bo continues his brave journey back to the basement.
BB's Bold Team 11.5 – 4.5 You Don't Know Bo

The 2025 runner-up and current 1st-place monster, BB’s Bold Team, is looking damn near unbeatable right now. BB pushed the win streak to 8 straight games after taking down the struggling 2025 GM of the Year, You Don’t Know Bo. This one wasn’t exactly a surprise, because Bo has been stinking worse than Danny & Billy in bags, and let me just say, that is tough to do. But sheeeeez… is BB ever going to lose again? Sitting at 11-1 is an insane start that nobody in this league saw coming, although everyone absolutely saw Bo eventually sliding back toward 9th place. That part was inevitable.

BB handled business across the board with a strong .294 AVG, 140 total bases, 48 RBI, and clean pitching numbers with a 2.91 ERA and 1.088 WHIP. Bo had some decent volume with 280 at-bats, 73 hits, and 29 walks, but once again, the rest of the box score looked a little ehhhhh. A 4.62 ERA, 1.164 WHIP, only 48 strikeouts, and a .222 BAA is not exactly “GM of the Year” material. BB just keeps stacking wins, while Bo keeps stacking evidence that 2026 GM of the Year isn't very likely

League takeaway: BB is THE team to beat, and at 11-1 with an 8-game win streak, the rest of the league better figure something out fast.

Gunnarrhea vs John's Super Team

Gunnarrhea pulled off the upset, and John’s Super Team caught a brutal case at the absolute worst time.
Gunnarrhea 8.5 – 7.5 John's Super Team

Johnboy Johnboy Johnboy...... what happened?! Juan Soto couldn't bail you out?????? Didn't you lead the week in homeruns too? Hmmmm.... Oh also, remember when you looked me in the eye at softball and said 'Steve guess what... Paul Goldschmidt just hit a homerun.' Well guess what John's Not So Super Team, fuck you and YOU CAUGHT THAT NASSSSSSTYYYYY CASE ON GUNNARRHEA! AND THIS IS A WARNING TO ALL OF Y'ALL THAT THIS SHIT WILL BE SPREADING LIKE WILDFIRE. It's starting with Johnny's weak ass and it'll catch each of you before the season is over. How's that loss to a 2-9 team feel Johnboy? Bet you thought you we're just gonna stroll away with that easy dub huh? Better luck next time kid.

This one I know hurts because John's Not So Super Team actually brought some offense. He led with 18 HR, 79 hits, 48 RBI, and 147 total bases, but still walked away holding the L. Gunnarrhea answered with 17 HR, 50 runs, 24 walks, 65 strikeouts, and enough pitching volume to tilt the matchup. The pitching wasn’t exactly pretty with a 4.57 ERA, but it got the job done where it mattered with 65 K, 6 wins, 4 QS, and 7 net saves. John’s pitching had the better ERA at 3.58, but that 1.450 WHIP was disgusting enough to tilt the favor.

How's that loss to a 2-9 team feel Johnboy? Bet you thought you we're just gonna stroll away with that easy dub huh? Better luck next time kid.

League takeaway:

Nobody is safe anymore. Gunnarrhea may still be ugly, but now he is contagious.

Dixon Cider vs Mactown MacDaddies

"Mactown MacDaddies Sucks" - Dixon Cider
Dixon Cider 10 – 6 Mactown MacDaddies

Even though Dixon Cider forgot to set her lineup and missed out on 3 pitcher start days, she still found a way to take down the MacDaddies. Honestly, that tells you everything you need to know. She clearly knew Mactown wasn’t a real threat, so she didn’t even need to bother. And somehow… she was right. The MacDaddies had a golden opportunity sitting right in front of them and still couldn’t take advantage, mostly because their starting pitching was absolute cheeks. B

Dixon didn’t even need some monster week to pull this off either. She just stayed steady, putting up 74 hits, 39 walks, 7 steals, a .273 AVG, and 130 total bases, while the pitching staff quietly handled business with a 3.21 ERA, 1.238 WHIP, only 1 loss, 4 net saves, and a .242 BAA. Meanwhile, Mactown actually had a shot. They out-homered Dixon 16 to 13, beat her in RBI 44 to 43, and even had more strikeouts and quality starts. But none of that mattered when the staff was out there getting shelled for a 6.44 ERA, a 1.552 WHIP, and somehow posting -1 net saves.

But even with some shitty pitching, they we're only a couple big hits away from the comeback win! But like i said, they wouldn't clutch up. Maybe they should take less time saving lives over in South Shore and spend more time on the waiver wire. The Schwarburger will be slowing down eventually. If you wanna hold onto him, you better go all in while you can!!!

League takeaway: If you can’t beat a team that missed three pitcher-start days, you are not a serious threat. The MacDaddies let a gift-wrapped win slip away.

Goodyear Gila Monsters vs Me So Heorny

Goodyear didn’t just win the matchup of the week — they embarrassed Me So Heorny and reminded the league what a real contender looks like.
Goodyear Gila Monsters 13 – 3 Me So Heorny

Some were calling this the matchup of the week — the clash between the 2nd and 3rd seed. But man… what a disappointment this turned out to be. And bruh, I don’t even know what was more cheeks: the MacDaddies pitching line, or Me So Heorny’s hitting line. Jeez. Me So Heorny, y’all really do choke hard every time you run into a good team, huh? But honestly, even if y’all had managed to put together a decent week, odds are it still wouldn’t have mattered with the way Goodyear was rolling. And that dominant week helped bump the Goodyear Gila Monsters up to 2nd place.

Goodyear looked like they rewound time and pulled straight from that 2024 championship era. They racked up 87 hits, 58 runs, 16 homers, 60 RBI, 40 walks, 7 steals, a .269 AVG, and 152 total bases. And if that wasn’t enough, the pitching staff was even nastier: 1.81 ERA, 0.805 WHIP, 59 strikeouts, 4 quality starts, 8 net saves, and a ridiculous .176 BAA. Wild numbers.

Meanwhile, Me So Heorny completely folded where it mattered most. 336 AB and only 73 hits, 9 HR, 32 RBI, 0 steals, and a brutal .217 AVG is nasty work in all the wrong ways. The pitching was honestly not even terrible either — 78 Ks, 6 wins, and 5 QS is more than enough to keep you alive against anyone else. But when your offense comes out looking half-dead, none of that matters. This was supposed to be a heavyweight fight, and instead Heorny showed up throwing pool noodles.

I just pray this week from Goodyear was a one-time thing, because if they’re really starting to look like the 2024 version of themselves again, then the rest of us are in big, big trouble.

League takeaway: If Goodyear is truly heating up again, everybody better start paying attention fast. Me So Heorny, meanwhile, still looks like a team that shrinks when the spotlight gets bright.

This is Mizerable vs BTA Boyz

Result: This Is Mizerable keeps the streak alive, while BTA Boyz keep rebuilding and somehow getting worse.
This is Mizerable 11 – 5 BTA Boyz

This Is Mizerable is getting a little cute right now. They’ve got a little win streak going, and this time they handed BTA Boyz their 9th loss in a row. So now the question has to be asked: is This Is Mizerable actually finding their feet and turning into a real threat, or is this just a fluke because the streak came against the bottom two teams? Either way, one thing is clear — Mizerable has officially cleared his name from Roch Watch and handed the dirty, collapsing torch over to BTA Boyz, who appear to be diving headfirst into their 4th consecutive rebuild.

Mizerable wasn’t exactly dominant, but they did more than enough against a team that has completely forgotten how to win. They put up 75 hits, 48 runs, 15 homers, 41 RBI, a .264 AVG, and 134 total bases, while also getting solid enough pitching with a 3.90 ERA, 1.266 WHIP, 60 strikeouts, and 4 net saves. Nothing earth-shattering, but when you’re facing BTA Boyz, you really don’t need to be earth-shattering. You just need to look halfway functional.

At this point, BTA Boyz’ only win this year came against This Is Mizerable, which honestly makes this result even funnier. If they can’t beat the one team that used to be sitting right next to them in the mud, then it might be fair to say BTA may not find another win all season.

League takeaway: Mizerable may have finally escaped Roch Watch, and BTA Boyz have officially taken over as the league’s saddest weekly tradition.
