Monday, October 14th, 2019: Two titans went head-to-head in this year’s International League of the Americas Round 2 and only one was left standing at the end — the Quebec City Capitals. They eliminated the Boston Shamrocks 5-3 in the series.

In the deciding game today at Rebels Ballpark, they KO’ed the Boston Shamrocks 11-9 to cop their 1st league title. During the regular season Quebec City finished first in the Division A with a 77-61 record.

Thursday, March 7th, 2019: John Dillinger stepped before the podium this afternoon with Louisville officials flanking him on both sides as he doffed the Thoroughbreds cap and announced he’d reached an agreement to play in Louisville for 2 years.

The deal, an estimated $15,360,000 in total, is widely seen as a positive move for an organization looking to upgrade their starting pitcher.

In his career Dillinger has chalked up an ERA of 3.91. His won-loss record stands at 124-83.

Spring Training 2019 opens today in FCB, and major players today reported to their teams, days after pitchers and catchers showed up.

Many questions remain for 2019.  The Toronto Manaics lost 3 core starters to free agency, with SP Pinochet joining long-time rival New Orleans, RF Fonteneaz joining LA, and RF Alomar being still unsigned.  Can the core of young pitchers and inexperienced OF’s field another contenting team?

Rumour has it that the Maniacs are in dire financial shape, and will not be able to resign core talent after this year.  Is it this season or bust?

Winnipeg, fresh off a new marketing and branding expercise have been renamed the Winnipeg Aeros.  Can this new look breath new life into prennenial superstar Izy Suto?  Suto, once the highest paid player in the FCB had a horrible season in 2018 – batting a career low of .226, after a more successful in 2017, when he batted .295 with 42HR.

Excited to say, that after a league referendum, a strong decision was made to limit most OOTP measures from GMs.  As of now, only player potential will be displayed, with no overall amounts for potential or overall skill.  GMs will now has to successfully navigate player choices, using a combination of 1) stats, and 2) potential ratings (ie potential shown for batting skills etc).

It’s an exciting time for fullcount players, and this upcoming off-season will truly be an interesting one.

Make sure you pack that parka.  Suto and Biggin are in another blockbuster trade, this time the are heading to Winnipeg Manitoba to join the Golden Boys.

The crack of bats and balls fills the air as Fullcount pitchers and batters report to spring training yet again.  Many questions are to be answered in this upcoming FCB season: are the Stars a one-hit wonders, and do the ILA-defecting teams, San Diego, Hamilton, Phoenix, and Halifax stand any chance?
