Thoughts Approaching the 2013 Season

I posted an update at this time for the previous HOF where I noted that 300+ game winner David Wells, the newest inductee in that Hall, was 15th on the All-Time win list, there.

Here, I have yet to have one 300 game winner. There are only 5 pitchers here that have won 250 games (Matt Cain, the all time leader with 298, is the only one inducted, so far). The active player with the most wins is a RL HOFer with 214 after 17 seasons of play. The main causes of this differential might be attributed to the eras in which the two leagues respectively began and the use of a High injury setting setting here.

I noted the other league seemed to have generated a large number of RL HOF and RL potential HOF, and otherwise notable pitchers, early on. This may be a contributing factor, as well.

Though fewer seasons have been played here prior to the opening of the Hall, about the same number of players have entered into the draft pools. This is due to this league starting with 24 teams.
