Trivia

• Ders Velischek's first season.

• First year since 2014 where the divisions were not constructed randomly. 

  • The divisions were labeled "Champs" and "Contenders". They featured the seven returning league champions in one division and the remaining seven without a championship title in the other.

• Thirteen of the last fifteen picks of the draft were keepers. The twenty-fifth round featured only two actual draft pick selections.

• Two trades by Aaron Snyder, one with Logan Camillo and one with Mike Andranovich, on March 25th created some heated remarks, notably by John Inguagiato, in respect to the fairness of the deals. This sparked a few hours of debate dubbed #TradeWars2K19 by Brendan Davis. The first trade saw Aaron send Tommy Pham and Anthony Rizzo to Logan for Luis Castillo and Willson Contreras, the second featured Aaron sending Daniel Murphy and Lorenzo Cain to Mike for Freddy Peralta and Carlos Rodon.

• On April 8, former manager Eric Miele adamantly proclaimed 2019 was "JOHNNYS YEAR," pictured below. Eric did not drop this claim and continued to recite this mantra throughout the course of the season. Even as John Inguagiato began the season at 3-6 and did not believe in his own team's chances, Eric continued to recruit more people to the "JOHNNYS YEAR" movement, even getting a whole room of Bucknell alumni to chant in John's favor. In the end, John finished the season by going 10-3 down the stretch, scorched into the playoffs, and fell just short in the Semi-Final round.
