Seeding Round League 2

Settings year:
1949

Highlights:
The 2nd seeding round league came down to a game 7 between the 1927 St. Louis Cardinals and the 1971 Baltimore Orioles. In the end, the 1927 St. Louis Cardinals scored a 7-2 victory to earn a spot in the top 300. This league also features our first case of being a home-year team. This is the term I am using to describe a possible advantage teams have by playing with the same settings as they played in. The 1949 St. Louis Cardinals took advantage of the situation and earned a bye to Round 2. The National Association winning 1875 Boston Red Stockings finished second to last in the league 34-110, underscoring the difficulty the National Association will face to qualify a team out of the seeding round. We did see our first Negro League team to qualify. The 1924 Chicago American Giants have a bye until the 2nd round after an impressive 85-59 season. The 1912 Washington Senators will have a rather dubious distinction. Despite Walter Johnson winning the Cy Young unanimously, they weren’t able to advance out of the round. The 1998 Chicago Cubs won the last-chance playoffs over the 1933 Boston Red Sox in 7 games so we will keep an eye on them in Round 1.

MVP:
1. Cristobal Torriente (1924 Chicago American Giants) - .402/19/137/11.9 676 (47)
2. Mike Schmidt (1980 Philadelphia Phillies) – .331/32/112/10.7 407
3. Walter Johnson (1912 Washington Senators) - 377 (2) See Cy Young for stats plus 2.1 batting WAR

Cy Young:
1. Walter Johnson (1912 Washington Senators) – 22-9/2.14/156/10.5 343 (49)
2. Phil Douglas (1915 Cincinnati Reds) – 23-10/2.37/131/7.8 192
3. Roy Oswalt (2005 Houston Astros) - 19-10/2.13/133/7.9 136
