The Yankees

Although Bleach's Yankees didn't come away with a trophy this year, the future looks bright for his squad. After trading Nate Smith to the Dbacks, Bleach came away with Sean's first round pick; giving him the 2nd and 8th overall picks. To make this even better, longtime Vet Greg Myers is making his return to the league, and will be getting drafted 2nd overall to the Yankees (most likely). On top of THAT, it seems that it may actually work out that Austin can also get Dane McGrath again with the 8th overall pick. If Bleach comes out of the first round with that team, the league should be worried. With the pitching force of Greg and Dane, coupled with the hitting force from all 3 of them, this team would definitely be at #1 in my preseason power rankings.

2017 Recap: The Cinderella Story

Honestly, this was such a weird year for the Yankees it's tough to really recap. There were points during the year where you might've thought they would miss playoffs, and there were points where you might've thought they'd win the chip. A major plus for this team was their offense. This team had arguably the scariest lineup in the league, as Bleach was a monster at the plate; hitting homeruns in almost every game. Like I had predicted last year, Bleach was definitely back to Longball form this year. The only issue is that in wiffleball, a consistent pitching rotation is ample times more important than consistent batting, and the Yankees found that out the hard way. After putting together a 5-9 record in the regular season, just about everyone in the league, including members of the Yankees, predicted a 2-0 sweep in favor of the Orioles. However, after batting .313 with 9 homeruns and 28 RBIs in the regular season, Bleacher was not about to go down without a fight. Luckily for the Yanks, their hitting stayed hot, and their pitching got hot right at the start of playoffs. With Dane pitching lights out, and the bat of Austin Bleacher, they had enough to advance past the O's with a 2-0 sweep. With upset #1 passed them, again many of the league predicted a series sweep in favor of Colin Pollag and the defending champ Phillies. The Phillies had sat on their bye week and were well rested going into the series. Game one was all Phillies; however, the Yanks fought back hard behind the heroics of Austin Bleacher, winning the series in 3 games. Although this cinderella run was one for the books, as I said earlier, their inconsistency in pitching killed them. With McGrath unable to hit the zone, and bingnear proving to be too much, the yanks were swept in two to give the Dbacks the 2017 trophy. Although the season didn't end with the chip, Austin will have two first round picks next year and will look to put himself back in the position for a trophy.
