MEXICAN WINTER LEAGUE (MWL)
LEAGUE BACKGROUND
- Based out of Mexico
- Level of Competition: Winter (AA level/talent)
- Minor Leagues: none
- Salary Cap: $50,000,000
- Rules: Current MLB rules/settings (no DH)
- 8 teams, 68 game season
- Playoff structure: Championship (Best of 5)
- I mainly picked the Mexican leagues as it had the best setup of the winter leagues for what I was looking for (1 division, 8-10 teams, short season). I could not find the real nicknames or logos of the teams in the leagues, so I used the real cities and let the game generate nicknames and logos.
Code:
Team
Culiacan Moths
Guasave Hippies
Hermosillo Victorians
Mazatlan Black Hawks
Mexicali Leopards
Mochis Wranglers
Navojoa Chameleons
Obregon Orangemen
MY TEAM BACKGROUND
Mazatlan Black Hawks
- League: n/a
- Minor League Affiliate: n/a
- City: Mazatlan, Sinaloa
- Ballpark: Ballpark of Mazatlan
- Capacity: 26,000
- I picked the Black Hawks mainly for cosmetic reasons. #1 best nickname, #2 best colors (black & orange), however upon closer inspections, Mazatlan actually has the most "pitcher friendly" park in the league, which is a nice contrast to my team in Japan and will use that as the basis for making roster moves.
