Nice win, you're having the same July jolt I had in my chise

[mfbmike]

Yeah, it's pretty funny how far out in front the Rays are. The AL is a joke in this chise I swear rofl.

I'm hoping I can get to 10 wins and get that trophy. lol.

6 straight, mike is about to ignite!

[mfbmike]

Yeah, definitely. If I get to 10 straight wins, I think it's def time to bump it up.

It's funny to think that at the beginning of this chise, I was actually swept by the Mariners. lol.
