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......
