Franchise History- This franchise started out in the City of Brotherly Love…no…not San Francisco…Philadelphia. They were the Isotopes, played there for one season and posted a franchise worst record (77-85). The team was sold after their inaugural season to Sonofodin52, move to Richmond and renamed the Knights. They then went on a tear…winning the NL East for the next 4 seasons in a row and winning the DCS in Season 2. Season 6 saw the beginning of a decline for the Knights as they slipped out of playoff contention. They have not returned since. The team moved from Richmond to Cincinnati after Season 7.
Franchise Outlook- The Outlook for the Cincinnati Knights is not too great. Only 3 members of the major league squad are under 27 years old. They have some talent in the minors, including Draft Choices, Peter Milton and Charles Bland, but for the most part, this is a team that will face some concerns in the next several seasons. Some of the Knights best players will have to be replaced in the next 3-5 years, so the Knights will have to find a way to fill in the spots left by those players. Sonofodin52 is not active in the International Market, so the next few years will have to be key drafting years or the Knights will have to make some important free agent signing if the team wants to return to rule the NL East.
