#29 - Burlington Bombers



Franchise Power Points: 16

Cumulative Record: 488-646

Playoff Achievements: none

Best Season Record: Season 5 (80-82)

Worst Season Record: Season 2 (58-104)

Franchise History- With the Bombers we have the first owner on our list so far who has been with the league since its inception. Enforcer64 started this franchise in Chicago under the name Davros Destroyers posting two unimpressive Seasons (including a franchise worst) before moving the team to Burlington in Season 3. The team hasn’t found much more success in Burlington as it has yet to have a winning Season. There does not seem to be any obvious reason for the lack of production other than questionable drafting and general sub-par play.

Franchise Outlook- The Bombers should be on the rise considering their history. In the past 7 seasons, they have had 7 top 20 draft picks. Some of the young players they have brought into the system via the Amateur Draft are SS Eddie York, and pitchers Tommy Kline and Jacob Stanley. The Bombers also have the 5th overall pick in this year’s draft to secure a young stud. Hopefully, enforcer64 will be able to put the right product out on the field to secure the fans in Burlington a winning season this year.
