Franchise Power Points: 22.5

Best Season Record: Season 2 (92-70)

Worst Season Record: Season 7 (69-93)

Franchise History - This franchise started out as the Huntington Hammerheads. They fared relatively well in their tenure there, providing winning seasons in two out of four years and winning the AL East in Season 2. Since the sale of the Huntington franchise in Season 5, they have not been able to find a suitable home. They have changed cities and owners every year representing the AL East as the Columbus Buckeyes, New York New York (Bronx), New York New Age Dynasty (Queens) and this year as the Kansas City Mickey Mice. The changes in scenery have not been a recipe for success as the team has never revisited the success it had in Huntington. Their last winning season was in Season 3.

Franchise Outlook - Young Short Stop Pepper Lamb leads the major league squad. Aside from him and a few other young players, this team lacks major league talent. What they do have is the 7th, 21st, 28th, 40th and 46th picks in this year’s Amateur Draft. Combine this with minor league stars Daniel Craddock, Peter Tatum and Clyde Hunter and the Mickey Mice could possibly be the Cinderella story of the AL East.
