Bryson Livingston and Keaton Kimmel have been staples for the Chicago Bats and BLW as a whole for several seasons. Both veterans had the 1st and 2nd highest OPS figures on the team, but with the new season and its rule changes favoring players with yellow bat experience, this summer could have Kimmel and Livingston see massive uptick in their offensive performances.

Could the Chicago Bats shock the league tomorrow in Atlanta?

Jeff Lopes makes his Chicago Bats debut and has officially been named our Opening Day starter. Ranked 2nd in the world and best in BLW, Lopes posted a 0.25 ERA and a 1.314 OPS during BLW Dallas this past February and is projected to be one of the favorites to win ROY.

With other top draft picks already having incredible success so far this year, could Lopes’ first action this summer steal the award from other stellar rookies?

Keaton Kimmel has been voted by the players as the best trash talker in the league. When asked for comment, his response was simple.

“Honestly I’m not surprised”

Legendary stuff here.
