Gint-a-Cuffs VII Packs 17-20

Here we are, reaching the dog days of the competition.  At this point, there is a sort of fatigue as the hot weather wears down even the best on my roster.  They look up at the standings and see that they're barely in the wild card race and can stay in only if they come up with a credible enough musical montage.  With less than 100 points through 2/3 of the box, they may be singing Muddy Waters.  We need a new injection of talent, a new way of thinking in the Gint-a-Cuffs owner's box to get through the season of quirkiness.  Is it possible to get the influence of 19th century players to help out?
