All Timers League Playoffs
I've simulated the regular season of this version of CW's All Timers League, and the league is now headed to the postseason (but not before two tie-breakers). I did three wildcards, and an NFL-esque playoff format: The wild card series is best-of-five (2a, 3h), and the rest of the series are best-of-seven (2h, 3a, 2h)
Here's the final standings, before the tiebreakers (playoff/tiebreaker teams in bold): AL Classic Phil. Athletics 96-66 Pale Hose 96-66 Highlanders 94-68 Wolverines 91-71 Blues 90-72 Americans 90-72 Senators 73-89 Browns 72-90 AL West White Sox 81-81 Royals 78-84 Twins 75-87 Oak A's 74-88 Rangers 73-89 Brewers 72-90 Angels 67-95 Mariners 66-96 AL East Yankees 93-69 Black Barons 92-70 Blue Jays 88-74 Indians 83-79 Orioles 83-79 Red Sox 82-80 Tigers 71-91 Grays 64-98 NL Classic Alleghenys 94-68 Quakers 87-75 Gothams 87-75 Perfectos 85-77 Robins 82-80 Redlegs 75-87 Whales 75-87 Bees 74-88 NL West Giants 97-65 Monarchs 89-73 Cardinals 85-77 Cubs 85-77 Astros 82-80 Dodgers 79-93 Rock Marrays 73-89 Padres 71-91 NL East Reds 91-71 Braves 89-73 Pirates 84-78 Phillies 83-79 Colonels 78-84 Expos 74-88 Mets 67-95 Marlins 58-104 |

Tiebreakers
AL Classic Tiebreaker (Philadelphia Athletics @ Chicago Pale Hose)
The A's just destroyed the Pale Hose in the 7th inning, earning the division title, as well as the bye and the #1 seed in the AL playoffs. NL Wild Card Tiebreaker (New York Gothams @ Philadelphia Quakers) For most of the game, Christy Mathewson looked like the hands-down favorite to be the player of the game. Through 7 innings, Mathewson had held the Quakers to just 1 hit, and looked prime to have a complete-game shutout. But then in the eighth inning, Matthewson got into some trouble: The eighth inning was a sign of what was to come. The Giants scored an insurance run in the ninth inning, and then the Quakers came to bat in the ninth inning. The Quakers scored three runs that inning, sending themselves to the playoffs and sending the Gothams home wondering what the heck just happened: So here's the seeding for the playoffs (byes in bold): AL 1. Philadelphia Athletics: 97-66, 1st place in the AL Classic 2. New York Yankees: 93-69, 1st place in the AL East 3. Chicago White Sox, 81-81, 1st place in the AL West 4. Chicago Pale Hose, 96-67, 2nd place in the AL Classic 5. New York Highlanders, 94-68, 3rd place in the AL Classic 6. Birmingham Black Barons, 92-70, 2nd place in the AL East NL 1. San Francisco Giants, 97-65, 1st place in the NL West 2. Pittsburgh Alleghenys, 94-68, 1st place in the NL Classic 3. Cincinnati Reds, 91-71, 1st place in the NL East 4. Atlanta Braves, 89-73, 2nd place in the NL East 5. Kansas City Monarchs, 89-73, 2nd place in the NL West 6. Philadelphia Quakers, 88-75, 2nd place in the NL Classic I think the next post will be previews of the Wild Card Series (I haven't played through them yet.)

AL Wild Card Preview #1
So here we have it, our previews for the Wild Card series. Under "top batters" and "top pitchers", I list every player on that team who is in the top 7 in a stat in the leaderboards of the game in their league (for pitchers, starters and relievers are seperate, and for batters, fielding positions don't matter). Bolded stats are stats where he leads his league in that category.
New York Highlanders @ Chicago Pale Hose New York Highlanders Team Stats w/AL Rank (24 teams): Runs Scored: 924, 1st Batting AVG: .291, 1st OBP: .362, 2nd Home Runs: 135, 9th Stolen Bases: 161, t-4th Runs Against: 726, 6th Starter ERA: 4.11, 6th Bullpen ERA: 3.39, 4th Defensive Eff. .707, 7th Top Batters: Babe Ruth (.344 BA, .455 OBP, .604 SLG, 1.059 OPS, .442 wOBA, 7.6 WAR, 30 HR, 99 RBI, 106 Runs Scored, 97 BB, .260 ISO) Lou Gehrig (.337 BA, .405 OBP, .549 SLG, .954 OPS, .405 wOBA, 7.8 WAR, 209 Hits, 28 HR, 131 RBI, 127 Runs Scored, 70 XBH, 341 TB) Charlie Keller (97 BB) Top Pitchers: Al Orth (38 Saves) Jack Chesbro (31 Starts) Lefty Gomez (243 IP) Chicago Pale Hose: Team Stats w/AL Rank (24 teams): Runs Scored: 735, 15th Batting AVG: .278, 6th OBP: .339, 10th Home Runs: 56, 22nd Stolen Bases: 167, 3rd Runs Against: 695, 4th Starters ERA: 3.82, 2nd Bullpen ERA: 4.48, 21st Defensive Eff: .699, 14th Top Batters: Eddie Collins (47 SB) Top Pitchers: Ed Walsh (20 Wins, 0.19 HR/9, 3.69 FIP, 5.4 WAR) Reb Russell (44 Saves) Eddie Cicotte (5 Shutouts) Red Faber (0.17 HR/9) Doc White (0.21 HR/9, 3.73 FIP) Series Preview from the Game: The Highlanders had a pythagorean W-L of 99-63, second in the majors only to the Giants, who had a 100-62 expectancy. And as you can see, it wasn't by accident. The Highlanders have quite the big boppers in their lineup, namely Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig. While their offense is their strength, it's not like the Highlanders can't pitch either. They have a good-enough rotation, and a closer in Al Orth who has blown 4 saves all year. Meanwhile, the pale Hose's main strength is their pitching, but as you could see in the division tiebreaker, it can meltdown when met with a good offense like the Philadelphia Athletics. In the end, I don't think the Pale Hose will be able to hold up against the Highlanders. Prediction: Highlanders in 4 Last edited by BoSoxFan; 10-24-2013 at 02:53 PM. |

AL Wild Card Preview #2
Birmingham Black Barons @ Chicago White Sox
Birmingham Black Barons Team Stats w/AL Rank (24 teams): Runs Scored: 796, 8th Batting AVG: .277, 7th OBP: .341, 8th Home Runs: 146, 5th Stolen Bases: 161, t-4th Runs Against: 661, 1st Starters ERA: 3.86, 3rd Bullpen ERA: 3.14, 2nd Defensive Eff: .722, 1st Top Hitters: Cool Papa Bell (6.1 WAR, 47 2B, 10 3B, 66 SB) Buck Leonard (203 Hits, 43 2B, 113 RBI, 65 XBH, 311 TB) Top Pitchers: Dick Redding (19 W, 32 GS, 251.1 IP, 7.38 H/9, 184 K, .220 BAA) Bullet Joe Rogan (32 GS, 172 K, 6.71 K/9) Bill Lindsay (7.85 H/9, .233 BAA, 1.19 WHIP) Chicago White Sox Team Stats w/AL Rank (24 teams): Runs scored: 745, 13th Batting AVG: .265, 15th OBP: .335, 13th Home Runs: 137, 8th Stolen Bases: 64, 20th Runs against: 747, 12th Starters ERA: 4.29, 15th Bullpen ERA: 4.06, 11th Defensive Eff: .704, 9th Top Hitters: Frank Thomas (.416 OBP, .386 wOBA, 5.9 WAR, 197 Hits, 296 TB) Top Pitchers: Tommy John (3.11 ERA, 246 IP) Series Preview from the game: The White Sox are a mediocre team which is only in the playoffs because they play in a truly terrible division. Although they historically did go 3-3 against the Black Barons, and Frank Thomas is ridiculous against them, I just don't see them getting it done against the Black Barons. Prediction: Black Barons in 3 Last edited by BoSoxFan; 10-24-2013 at 02:53 PM. |

NL Wild Card Preview #1
I'll just post the team pages/previews in the game.
Prediction: Monarchs in 5 I think Satchel will win both of his starts, and the Monarchs will find a way to win another. Last edited by BoSoxFan; 10-24-2013 at 02:48 PM. |

looking good. You enjoying this file? how do the different logos look? i want to do my own version using CW's tean names but with players coming in either as rookies or at the age they playeed their 1st year with teh club that they had the most impact on. Harold Baines would be 20 or so as a rookie in 1980 Shoeless Joe (who in this file is on Philly) would be 27 in 1915 with the Pale Hose vs all players being 26.

Give Captain Walrus the credit it is his file I just converted it and gave teams uniforms and real parks. Are you having any issues with the parks. The way CW had it setup he only had 1 park for all teams. I had to a add new park per team and i had issues getting the park to stay in place for the White Sox and the Cubs etc. it kept reverting to default.

Have to insert some parks manually but this is easy & quick(i have checked only one or two parks so no sufficient data).Logos & uniforms looking great!
To have the players coming in as rookies or at the age they played 1st time would be very interesting. Looking forward to see how the playoffs will end.(Predicting Barons to win it). Nice thread, thanks to BoSoxFan..
