2010 Year in Review: Mongtomery Biscuits (Overall)

Over the next few weeks I will recap the 2010 season of each affiliate. This week will focus on the overall season, next week will cover the hitting leaders and the final week will be pitching leaders. Like the week in reviews earlier in the season, each day will bring attention to a different affiliate as we work our way through the franchise. Today we take a look at the overall team stats of the Montgomery Biscuits.

The 2010 Montgomery Biscuits had a strong first half of the season, falling short of the playoffs by just one game. However the second half was not as good, finishing in third place in the division and missing out on the postseason. The Biscuits were 72-66 overall on the year which was good for third place in the Southern League. The Biscuits placed five players on the All-Star team; Drew Anderson, Darin Downs, Matt Gorgen, Jeremy Hall and Alex Torres were nominated to the midseason game. Alex Cobb was named the Biscuits MVP by the Tampa Bay Rays for his performance during the season.
