Doesn't get any better then this, being 1/2 a game behind Seattle Sasquatch for the wild card spot going into September. The road to the playoffs won't be easy as New York will face 7 teams that have a combined record of 485-468. While Seattle in there 7 teams they face have a combined record of 471-481. Seattle plays 8 games vs the lowly South Bend Shamrocks who have the worst record in the league.
When we look at heads up match ups vs the 7 teams NY and Seattle play it looks like this. Seattle 39-33 vs up coming 7 teams and NY 39-34. The big stand out is Seattle plays South Bend for 8 games and Seattle has owned them 11-2. Mafia's long series is vs Ann Arbor Barn Owls where NY is 8-6. So this is where the race for the Wild Card lies.
Mafia do a lot of things well as a team overall, a very balanced team. When New York won the Division in 2013 this is how the team played. They have just add two players that they think can help them down the stretch.
SS Ben Hahn 22yro who has a decent glove and is a on base machine.
1B/3B switch hitting Josh Stevens has power that can not be overlooked.
The Mafia knows what September means to New York, win and compete at a high level, the Mafia has promised there fans they will put on a show in September......

10 In a Row
In a time when a lot of questions were being asked about all the holes in New York's lineup, they respond with a 10 game ride that seen some good teams. 1st up was Las Vegas Jokers (47-29) for 3 games then Washington Capitalists (42-34) for 4 games all games were on the road, both teams are in 1st place in there divisions.
Its not a secret that Mafia are struggling with the bats aside from Consigliere, Joe Herman and a few others. So New York saw Tommy Harris sitting in the free agent market for some time now and made a offer he couldn't refuse. Mafia offered 1mil for one year and Harris quickly accepted. In 21 AB he has 3HR 8RBI and help keep this streak alive.
When New York clicks on all cylinders they are tough to beat. We have not seen the consistency out of this team to get to happy about being 4 1/2 games out of the wildcard, right behind Seattle Sasquatch (46-29) who Mafia will play tonight for a 3 game set back at Don Corleone Park.
With the Allstar game less then 2 weeks away New York looks to have some good enough to join the fun. José Serrano is having his best start to a season in his young carrer. In 16 starts (4-2) 3.65 ERA 1.27 WHIP 93.2 IP 93 K. Joe Herman is off to a nice start with the bat and is playing a great CF, he is leading in most stats among CF with the bat and the glove. And of course the pride of NY Jorge Mora .367 AVG .462 OBP lead the RCL.
