HISTORY: The Red Devils entered BLOBB in 2000 as an expansion team. In their inaugural season, they got off to a slow start before picking up steam after the all-star break at which time they contended for the money positions before tailing off late and finishing in 7th place. The Devils featured a balanced speed attack and good starting pitching in Curt Schilling, Kirk Rueter, and Shawn Estes.

BEST TRADE:In 2000, the Devils traded Ken Griffey and Tom Glavine to the Ticks for Sammy Sosa, Russ Ortiz, and Desi Relaford. Despite heavy criticizm from other league members, Sosa outperformed Griffey by a substantial margin and Russ Ortiz got red hot in the second half and nearly matched Glavine�s overall numbers. The trade put the Devils in contention for much of the second half of the year.

WORST TRADE:none
