Hello World!
This is the official/parody account of the Portland Stags, an expansion team in the #eMLB - a baseball simulation league run using @ootpbaseball with commissioner @FKNCommishLB & a community of 200+ people!
Inspired by the Portland Diamond Project. @PDXDiamondProj
Jonathan Bizeau is HIM. Portland’s first baseman captured AL Player of the Week after a monster stretch — 12 hits in 26 AB, 5 homers, 10 RBI and a .462 tear that turned heads across the AL. Now up to 20 HR, 59 RBI and a .277 clip on the year, he’s powering the Stags’ push. #eMLB
Stags fall 8–4 in a rain‑shortened night at Cleveland, but Kevin Alcántara kept Portland on the board with a two‑run shot as the lineup battled through tough conditions. A bases‑clearing double in the 7th swung it late as Portland moves to 64–67. #eMLB
Stags edged 6–5 in Cleveland, but Dominic Aguilera and Jonathan Bizeau kept the offense firing — Bizeau launching his 20th with 2 RBI as Portland battled to the end. Oneil Cruz’s walk‑off single in the ninth sealed it, but the Stags stay right in the hunt at 64–66. #eMLB
Stags come up just short in a 10–9 extra‑inning battle, but Jonathan Bizeau went absolutely off — 2 HR, 4 runs scored, 3 RBI and POTG‑level thunder at Progressive Field. Cleveland walked it off in the 10th, but Portland keeps swinging as they move to 64–65. #eMLB
Stags roll 10–4 in Detroit as Kevin Alcántara goes nuclear — 4 hits, 6 RBI, a triple and a double to drag Portland back to 64–64. Dominic Aguilera added a clutch 2‑run double early, and the offense never let up. Alcántara takes home POTG in style. #eMLB
Stags take down Detroit 6–3 behind a strong, steady Matt McClendon — 8 innings, 3 runs, and POTG command. Ajani Moutry set the tone early with a 2‑run blast, his 26th, as Portland climbs to 63–64 and keeps pushing in the Wild Card chase. #eMLB
Stags outlast Detroit 12–10 in 10 as Will Cabrera goes off — two homers, POTG, and the heartbeat of a five‑homer night. Jonathan Bizeau delivered the dagger with a 2‑run single in the 10th, finishing with three hits as Portland grinds to 62–64. #eMLB
Kevin Alcántara is back. Activated after a 6‑week absence with a fractured thumb, the Stags’ All‑Star outfielder returns still leading all AL rookies in HR, runs and WAR. His comeback couldn’t be better timed as Portland pushes for its first Wild Card berth. #eMLB
Stags drop their sixth straight, 8–2 in New York, but Dominic Aguilera and Will Cabrera still found barrels on a tough night. Dan Walker’s 13‑strikeout outing kept Portland quiet, but the group keeps grinding for the bounce‑back. #eMLB
Stags drop their fifth straight, 6–3 in New York, but Ben Snow stayed red‑hot with a 4‑hit game to pace the offense. Sergio Iturriaga battled, but a third‑inning swing from Luis Flores made the difference as Portland looks to reset. #eMLB
Stags fall 3–0 in the Bronx, but Ben Snow stays hot with a 4‑hit day — carrying the Portland offense while the team searched for a breakthrough. Vito Romero battled through five innings, but a third‑inning swing proved the difference as the skid reaches four. #eMLB
Stags fall 11–8 in Atlanta despite a big night from the heart of the order, with Billy Ray Spears and Ajani Moutry sparking rallies. But Kenny Lindberg’s 5 RBI and Isaac Granados’ go‑ahead knock in the 7th swung it the Braves’ way. Portland moves to 61–61. #eMLB
Stags fall 3–2 in Atlanta after a ninth‑inning heartbreaker — Buster Bluth’s solo shot off Chris P. Bacon sealed it for the Braves. Bacon struck out nine over 8.1 innings in a strong outing, but Portland couldn’t find the late answer. #eMLB
Stags drop a late one in Pittsburgh, 10–4, after a tight game unraveled in the eighth — a tough swing as Pat Sikes’ rough inning opened the door for the Pirates. Dominic Aguilera and Jonathan Bizeau each homered to keep Portland in it, but the late surge proved too much. #eMLB
Stags take down Pittsburgh 3–1 behind a steady, winning outing from Vito Romero — 5.1 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 3 K — earning POTG and setting the tone in a tight, low‑scoring matchup. Ben Snow added a clutch bases‑loaded walk to push the lead to 3–0 as Portland moves to 61–57. #eMLB
Stags take a tough 13–5 loss in Houston, but the story could’ve been very different without the costly error that opened the door for 5 unearned runs. Portland still saw Will Cabrera notch three hits and Jonathan Bizeau hit a HR as the lineup couldn't climb from the hole. #eMLB
Stags outlast Houston 9–8 at PDX as Billy Ray Spears delivers again — a 3‑run blast in the 6th to flip the game and lock up POTG honors. Mike Carson steadied things in relief for win No. 4, and Steve King slammed the door for save No. 25 as Portland climbs to 60–57. #eMLB
Stags fall 3–2 to Houston, but Portland’s arms kept it tight — Sergio Iturriaga, Sonny Powell and Zach Adams held the Astros to just three runs while punching out seven. Ajani Moutry added two hits and the defense turned a clean double play, but the late swing never came. #eMLB
Stags roll in Arizona, 8–2, behind a three‑hit showcase from Billy Ray Spears — including a run‑scoring triple that blew the game open in the 5th. Portland climbs to 59–56 as the bats stay loud and the momentum keeps building. #eMLB
Stags get blanked 3–0 in Arizona, but the pitching trio of Matt McClendon, Pat Sikes and Danny Thornock kept Portland in striking distance all night. McClendon punched out 4 over 6.1 innings, and the bullpen battled, but the bats couldn’t break through in the desert. #eMLB
