Career Owner Records Updated!

Check it out! The all-time Career DMBL Coaching Records page has been updated.

Here's a little factoid about each of us:

The Calvosa Brothers have had back-to-back 90+ win seasons. The Sardine City Straphangers have won almost as many games over the last two seasons (183) as they did in their first three (189)! Last year's 92-70 record brought up their career winning percentage by 27 points, to .459.

For the second straight year, Brent Campbell's Hillsborough Hired Hitmen finished with a winning record, but missed the playoffs. Campbell is 573-562 as the owner of the Hitmen, 348-300 as the owner of the Lousiana Lightning and 149-175 as the owner of the Scranton Sparrows.

The Newark Sugar Bears had their worst-ever season -- by 41 games! Prior to 2011, Butch Garretson's worst season was 90-72. Last year, he was 49-113. The disaster cost him 22 points in career winning percentage, from .650 to .628. However, he's still comfortably ahead of the second-place Iron Fist (.589). However, the Fisters will be within striking distance if the Sugar Bears have two more 49 win seasons in '12 and '13, which would put him at .592!

On the other hand, Mike Hornick had his best-ever season with New Jersey Team Buddah. It was only good enough for 12th place, but his 69 wins were one more than his previous all-time high in 2007. Still, it's a step in the right direction, and the second straight year he's gone up from 2009's last-place finish at 58-104.

And another best-ever performance, this one from Mark Hrywna. The Hoboken Cutters won 94 games -- eight wins more than their previous high, accomplished in '02 and '07. It was also their best performance in terms of standings (3rd), and the first time they've won a post-season series. If the Cutters can win 98 or more games next year, Mark's career winning percentage will be over .500 for the first time in franchise history!

David Landsman had his third straight winning season, but finished in 7th place. It was the first time since '08 that Matthew's Mighty Men of Marietta didn't make the playoffs, win more games than he did the previous year, or raise his career winning percentage (.542). His teams have called three different cities home, but it doesn't really matter where they play -- Landsman is 529-443 (.544) in Marietta, 431-379 (.532) in Stanhope, and 444-366 (.548) in Jerusalem!

After winning the World Series in '10, Jamie Landsman's Bridgewater Mallers took a big step backward in '11, going 64-98 to drop his career winning percentage by 16 points to .475. It was his second-worst performance after his 61-101 debut in 2006. Looking for a good omen in '12? Even with that awful '06, Jamie is 241-245 (.496 W%) in even-numbered years, but 221-265 (.455 W%) in odd-numbered years.

For the fifth straight year, Mike "Stump" Matiash missed the playoffs -- after reaching the post-season for the previous 14 consecutive years. The Arkansas Golden Falcons' 73-89 performance was the second-worst in the history of this once-proud franchise, following last year's 62-100 collapse.

Anthony "Bocci" Pucci won his first-ever division title, his first-ever Commissioner's Cup, his first-ever second round series... but lost in the World Series. His 96-66 campaign boosted his career winning percentage to .495 -- just 23 games under .500. If the Philadelphia Endzone Animals can win 93 games or more next year, he'll climb above .500 for the first time ever.

The Mudcats bounced back from their last-place finish in '10 to reach the playoffs, and give Chris Pucci his second Ian Rintel Front Office Executive of the Year Award. But his 89-73 finish dropped his career winning percentage to .493 -- two points behind brother Anthony!

Check out Nick Pucci's career numbers -- no, it's not a typo. He's gone exactly 71-91 in each of the three years he's been in the league! Each time he's finished in 11th place.

Erick Wickstrom won his first-ever division title and his first-ever World Series after going 95-67, the second-best performance in his franchise history. The Rat Pack haven't had a losing season since 2007, when they won just 52 games. They followed that up with 106 wins in '08. Prior to this four-year streak, the Rat Pack had just one winning season in their first seven years.

After losing 101 games in his first season and 99 in his second, Tom Zagenczyk won 83 games in 2010, but took a step backward in '11 after winning just 78 games. Still, that was good enough to bring his career winning percentage up 14 points to .440 -- putting him ahead of retired owners Scott Boehler, David Schlossberg and Brian Dissler.

Our beloved commissioner won more games than the previous year for the second straight season, and also had his fourth-straight winning season. But it was the second straight season that his Vancouver Iron Fist were bounced from the playoffs in the second round. Yaro Zajac now has 1,903 wins, opening up his head over second-place Arkansas by 74 wins. Yaro better be careful -- he's had three straight years that have lowered his career winning percentage, from .595 in '08 to .589 today. If the Iron Fist Retired brother Steve Zajac is lurking at .586 -- if the Fist don't win at least 83 games next year, Steve takes the Zajac family title!
