Ottawa Lynx Report Week Eight
After a promising start to their eight game road trip, (a 9-7 win on Thursday night), the wheels came off and Ottawa lost the three remaining games in Charlotte by scores of 12-8. 6-2 and 2-1, dropping their record to 22-24. The three loses meant that Ottawa gained only a split in the season series between the Lynx and the last place Southern Division Knights and fell to 9-15 on the road this year.
MLB 1st round mock draft
This will be fairly self explanatory. Yesterday I attempted to outline the best and worst case scenarios for the Phillies picks, now I’ll take a shot at laying out the entire first round. My guesses are, well, just that, guesses. With so much talent in this draft, one guy sliding or jumping could change the entire composition of the first round. I’ll give small blurbs with each pick as to why I see it going down in that fashion. Only one person sent me their own guess at the first 30, I’ll post that after I give my rundown, then we’ll see who gets closer.
