Best Season Record: Season 1 (90-72)

Franchise History- With the New Orleans Voodoo, we have our third original owner on the list, mgdtiger. They fared best in Season 1, posting a franchise best 90-72 record and securing a #5 Wildcard seed in the NL. They were knocked out in the first round of the playoffs and have never returned. The Voodoo have gotten consistently worse over time. They have slipped from that playoff appearance in Season 1 into insignificance over the last several seasons. They have not had a winning record since Season 3 and posted their franchise worst last year (55-107).
Franchise Outlook- The writers at GSPN are confounded by the New Orleans franchise. Nothing directly points to the atrophy of this team over the past several Seasons. They have continued to draft relatively well with players like Daniel Downing, John Gibbs and Ivan Pelaez spotting the minors and also have a balanced trade history. They also have not suffered any major losses in the Rule 5 draft. Whatever the reason, the Voodoo are making strides to get back in the playoffs. They signed all-stars Paul Adams and Johnny Meyers this season and hope that those two players can provide leadership and teach the young guys on the team how to win baseball games.
