The first games for the league were very controversial.  The Superior Strikers (later to be known as the Leroy Truckers) claimed to beat the Muffin Men 17-16, but upon further video review actually lost the game 17-16.  Upon losing the game Caleb Jonkman went down with a hand injury with no return in sight.  Neil who didn't attend the week one game, quit and said he didn't want to be an owner.  Tim Wiltjer took over the Strikers rebranding the team as the Truckers, Neil was than traded to the Ichiros. 

​

The second week saw a rise of Kevin Vroegh's 3-0 Master Batters, he won both games with combined scores of 30-3.  After the second week some big changes were made.  The 0-3 Truckers released Caleb Jonkman and signed Brett Detmar, a move that was legal at the time.  In 2017 we changed the ranking process which is the reason for many teams bring over the salary cap on the picture to the right.  Not only did Tim drop Caleb, he traded Ben Byma to the 1-2 Sliders in return for Colin Lautenbach.  Tim then released Colin and signed big hitter Mike Fiene to the team.

​

Going into games 4 and 5 of the season we saw similar results.  The 5-0 Batters won two more games and the 0-5 Truckers lost two more games.  Everyone else seemed to sit in the middle.  The Muffin Men, Backdoor Sliders, and Chainsmokers all sat at 3-2 in a effort to get the #2 spot and a first round bye.  Colin Lautenbach made an apperance in the week 3 games leading Jordan to release Ben and resign Colin.  Isaiah Devries was also let go by the 1-4 Ichiros in a move to sign Seth Vant Hoff.  The Chainsmokers made a big time move signing Robby Zandstra, and with Caleb's return looming the Truckers released Mike Fiene and resigned Caleb Jonkman.  A move that sparked some fire under Mike.

 

Kevin was no where to be found in the week 4 games leading to 2 losses from the 5-2 Batters.  With Caleb back in full force the 2-5 Truckers snatched up the franchises first two wins.  The Sliders and Smokers looked to be a force grabbing wins and improving to 5-2.  With the Batters losing we now had a 3 way tie for first with 3 games left in the regular season.  In a move of desperation the Batters signed youngster Erik Detmar and released Kyle Van Kalker going into the week 5 games.

​

The 7-2 Chainsmokers kept rising and the 5-4 Batters kept falling.  The Ichiros fall to 2-7 and automatically will be the #6 seed moving into the playoffs.  Teams made some last minute signings before the playoffs.  Kevin releases newly acquired Erik Detmar, and signs slugger Mike Fiene for his 4 spot.  Grant releases both Austin and Jon Gibson with them unavailable for the rest of the season.  He signs Ben Byma as well as Erik Detmar.

​

The final week of the season had 3 blowouts.  All games were at least won by 8 points or more.  The 6-4 Batters beat the 6-4 Sliders in a must win to clinch the two seed.  The 4-6 truckers won and Muffin Men lose giving them home field advantage over Grant's team in the Quarter Finals.
