This may seem like a silly request, but anyone got any good schedules that follow the current MLB format.
I haven't been happy with the OOTP generated scheds ,nor the ones generated with Stickware. I've tried making my own custom one but have lost patience. So anybody? |

A bit of an odd schedule I know but I like the thought of a tight race heading into the last part of the season and knowing those teams will have an even field heading into the last 10 days. |

I am actually in favor of trying to keep the same number of home and away games.. would something like this be possible:
10 games against each team within division (3-game series and 2-game series Home and same for Away) 6 games versus teams in other division/ Same league (3-game series Home and 3-game series Away) 1 2-game series versus 6 of the teams in other league (half would be home and half away) (10x4)+(6x5)+(2x6) = 40+30+12= 82 total games I am also fond of having every team play each day, but still have 1 or 2 days off each week.. But I'll take whatever I can get:-) Anything at all would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks!!! Quote:

I could use some clarification on a couple little things though to get as close to what you'd like as I can... Quote:

Just give me as much detail about that stuff as you can or want to. If I decide to work on it in the meantime, I can at least start setting the matchups. Oh yeah, and should I bother putting an All-Star Break, or would you do it at the end if at all? And when would you like the intergames - scattered about, all together mid-season, in little clumps, something else? Last edited by gmo; 06-11-2004 at 04:10 AM. |

I think I'd like the intergames during the middle of the season.. Definitely not at the beginning of the season or at the end of the season.. ...and thanks a ton for this.. really.. In the past, for other leagues that I have ran, I would actually attempt at setting a schedule and for some reason, I can never get it to work out correctly.. I mean i would spend weeks on the darn things and then end up having an extremely unbalanced schedule. Funny.. I had a friend who was a bit slow, but he would be able to throw one together in a matter of minutes, and it would be perfect..

20 team, 82 game schedule
2 leagues, 2 divisions per league, 5 teams per division 40 games in the division (10 per opponent) 30 games outside division, in league (6 per opponent) 12 interleague games against 6 opponents (2 per opponent) See the comments at the top of the file for a few more details. Here you go, davwms - it's as good as I could do relatively quickly. Check it out. At the moment I am rather schedule-burned out, but if you really wanted there is some room for a few changes, like shortening the All-Star Break (a little time-consuming since it means moving stuff around which might necessitate more changes as well as not starting the season on Monday or ending on a weekend), or running July-Oct rather than Apr-July (a snap, you could do that). Just let me know if there's anything else I can do. |

Well, that did give me an idea. I'll import a custom league from OOTP5 into OOTP6, export the schedule, and viola (missing accent? I don't mean the pitcher) there's the 2003 schedule. Not much, but it's something else. And I can do the same to get the 2002 schedule. Last edited by gmo; 06-12-2004 at 06:06 AM. |

2003 MLB schedule
14 team league with 3 divisions of 5, 5, and 4 teams 16 team league with 3 divisions of 5, 6, and 5 teams Unbalanced (more divisional games) and interleague play Year starts on: Wednesday Season starts: March 25 (Tuesday) All-Star Game: July 15 (Tuesday) Note that the All-Star Game is NOT entered in the schedule files; you'll have to add it manually after you import the schedule. ***EDIT: On 2004/09/13, the second version ("b") of the file was added, in which an originally scheduled doubleheader of San Diego at Philadelphia on 08/02 had the second game move to 08/04 (an offday for both teams)*** Schedule was simply taken from a custom league created in V5 then imported into V6 for the sole purpose of getting it.

2002 MLB schedule

Yup, created custom league in V4, imported to V5, imported to V6, exported the schedule. That's as far back as I can go with this method. Anybody else want to trump that?

Most of the discrepancies were related to starting time classification, i.e. whether a game was a day or night contest, and so on. It is really tedious to check that kind of thing, especially when there are 20 or more such discrepancies between each league, so I've been avoiding it. The last seasons I finally cross-checked and confirmed all the info on were 1965 and 1986-87. I haven't sent the updated schedules file to Retrosheet yet because I figure I might as well wait until I have a good number ready for posting on Retrosheet to make a worthwhile update. In any case, the scheduling for MLB since 1998 has been horrid thanks to the imbalance in the structure between the leagues and interleague play. Then there was the change to a divisional schedule in 2001, and the rotation of interleague opponents. This latter element is also very problematic, since it isn't possible to truly rotate it an orderly way. By the way, I've recently come across several instances of minor leagues who operated for an entire season with an odd number of teams. I even managed to find a schedule for one such case, the Carolina League of 1966, which operated that year with 11 teams. I'm currently transcribing that schedule, and once it's done I'll make an OOTP-importable version so folks can check out how such a situation was handled. It should be pretty interesting... |

Hey eveybody,
The CBL needs a schedule for next season. The problem we have is we have a 168 game schedule so stickware doesn't work for us. The in-game schedule works but we would like a better one 24 teams, 2 leagues, 3 divisions each, 4 teams each division. we would prefer unbalanced, with a little bit of interleague play. I am assuming that we will have to make our own, but i am hoping somebody has something that we can use. thanks

Let me know what you think, and I'll try to hook you up quick-like if that sounds good. EDIT - Since this is an online league, I can understand you possibly wanting all the teams to have the same offdays rather than mixing them up like in MLB as I have done in that schedule and most I have made. That would require a little back-engineering, but probably would not be a big deal. Maybe you would not be keen on 2 game series, which would be a big problem in this case. But anyway, just give me as much info as you can. If adapting the above schedule won't pan out, I might be able to build another. Last edited by gmo; 06-25-2004 at 01:28 AM. |

That would be great gmo, Tacking the week at the end is fine thanks. there is no hurry, we are only halfway done with the current season,(& we are a slow pace league) I am just planning ahead. I wanted enough time in case i had to make one (it would be my first) edit: I didn't see your edit...lol we only we sim a 4-3-4 schedule, so owners get plenty of control. I prefer the mixing up of the off days (wouldn't even mind some double headers), its kind of a bummer when our weekend 3 day sim (fri, sat, sun) turns into a 2 day sim.

Do you want the offdays aligned the same for all teams?
