Yeah its a strange one and you were showing up third on the table as well. From memory I think I have seen issues before with the three way tie, but don't quote me.

The two ties I have been involved with before were only two way, so not complicated.

Even Joe Torre didn't see this one coming...ha.

I'm not familiar with a 3-way tie for division...

Much simpler deal when it is 2.

The Piranha missed out on a playoff spot by a single game. It was theirs for the losing after an 18-10 September, but they baulked under the pressure and went 0-3 in October and with it went he opportunity.

I can't be too upset though after the topsy-turvy season the team has had. Finishing 13th overall in the league is a real achievement in my eyes.

And Matty Alou ended the campaign as the NC's Batting Champion, which is a really nice bonus

This week has really been characterized my by screaming neglect for what my teams are doing. I think I didn't make a single roster change for any team...

The neglect was so bad, I just now found out that the *19* Raccoons won their division by 14, and that the 19 Rebs saw "Big Unit" Johnson win the triple crown... and throw a no-hitter in JULY. Yeah, that's how involved I've been.

(looks straight up) Sorry, Randy? Really sorry. Wanna hug? No? Okay.

In 20, the Rebs' fate was already sealed. In the end they lost 106 games, nine games off a safe spot, ending their wacky Perfect League debut after one season.

The Coons fudged away their division lead (now, where have I seen this one recently -.- ...) and will instead enter the playoffs in the do-or-die frenzy after finishing 91-71. Not confident here; they haven't been great all year. On the other paw, the starts aligned to put Big Walt in the wild card game, so there's that.

The Accountants fudged away their division lead, finished 79-83, and ended up with nothing.

Such a great week.

Shane Reynolds - 92
Larry Dierker - 88
Kevin Brown - 86
Mike Hampton - 88
Roy Oswalt - 86

I am flabbergasted by the fact that this starting rotation did not prevent the offensively oriented Mustangs from making their first Perfect playoff appearance as the 2nd Wild Card team in P452's AC with a record of 84-78.

This is especially surprising because I moved Tim Salmon to LF (from DH) and Frank Robinson to CF (from RF, with Cesar Cedeno moving from LF to RF) this year to learn those positions from scratch. Combined with the fact that Peak Arky is my SS, and its pretty clear that defense is being neglected almost as much as Pitching.

Late Edit: Its the 91 OVR Frank Robinson, so its one of his rare cards that actually has the ability to play a somewhat competent CF.

As expected my team and Orlando fought for the glory of winning the most games in the league. I had the advantage most of the season, thanks to an early 18 game winning streak, but you can't argue with 19 wins in a row to top off your season. The Seoul Paw Sox were not far behind with 128 wins along with 2 other teams in Orlando's conference that won 100+ games.

4 teams in the league had run differentials over +500 which got me thinking. Instead of pairing teams randomly, why not line them up in order of run differential from the previous week? Take the top 120 randomly select 90 to fill the first 3 leagues and so on. Wouldn't that make for more balanced and exciting leagues? I suppose that would lead to folks tanking their run differentials in hopes of a better pairing, that's why 120 is used instead of just the top 90 for the first 3 leagues, to fight that.

Good luck to everyone, today.

To my great surprise, the Mashers managed to pull away from the Cleveland Motors and clinch the division with 88 wins with just seven games left. They then promptly went on a five-game losing streak because one of my starters got lit up and my bullpen never had a chance to recover. I brought in Johnny Allen as some extra bullpen help and he picked up wins in the last two games to bring Medford to a clean 90-72. This record secured us home field advantage against our first-round opponent, the Centerville Kamikazes, who sport a prolific offense but are running nearly all LIVE cards in their starting rotation. We went 3-4 against them in the regular season; it should be an interesting matchup.

The team finished top three in the conference in most offensive metrics except for home runs. They were paced by Garry Maddox, who finished with 6.3 WAR, leading the conference in both doubles (55) and triples (12) and finishing with a .305/.350/.435 slash. He also stole 27 bases. Ken Griffey Jr. somehow drove in 111 runs despite unfavorable home park factors, earning a share in the conference lead. He played noticeably better on the road, but still managed to record a home OPS of .764. Rocky Colavito took a step back this year at the plate, but still finished with an OPS a shade above .800 and socked 22 HR. It was a somewhat lost season for soon to be demoted clean-up hitter Aaron Judge, who once again led the league in strikeouts and finished as just a league average bat, though he did hit 30 HR. Jose Altuve and George Kell picked up the offensive slack, each hitting above .300.

Tom Seaver finished tied for the conference lead in wins with 18, receiving incredible run support to make up for a 4.28 ERA. No other noteworthy performances were produced by the starting rotation, but in the bullpen, Kirby Yates saved an astonishing 43 games (that ties him with Ken Giles for the conference lead) and pitched to a 2.35 ERA. Shohei Ohtani got hot down the stretch as well, lowering his ERA to 2.66, but still finished with negative WAR. Hansel Robles bounced back and turned in a competent year as the setup man, and Tug McGraw turned it around as a lefty specialist, posting a 2.39 ERA in 37 and 2/3rds IP.

As always, good luck to all in the playoffs...

The Colonels are the #1 seed in P421 with a record of 134-28. We head into the post-season with a rotation of four 20+ game winners led by triple crown winner Cy Young. The bullpen features a closer (Smith) with 30 saves, a stopper (Rixey) with 22 saves, and a setup man (Pedro) with 17 wins as a fifth starter. We allowed only 360 runs this season and hope to remain stingy during the playoffs.

Game 1 vs the BrewBallers: Huntley's Rube Marquard pitches 6.0 innings and gives up 2 runs, but Elon's Ed Walsh pitches 7 innings and gives up 1 hit and the BrewBallers take game 1 at Huntley, 2-1.

Coons lost their wild card game, and all teams crashed out on all juicy tournaments they were entered in and that already started, and all in the first or second round.

Sadness.

Plan to Turn Around Weak Offense at Home
Step 1: Have Mickey Mantle hit 3 dingers.
Step 2: ...there is no step 2. Mickey Mantle hit 3 dingers. You're good.

Huntley takes game 2, 9-5, thanks to...well...you know.

I am sure hoping to test that stingy staff in the finals but...lots of work ahead.

After going on a 40-1 streak (reg and playoffs) and having Mariano only giving up 7 ER all year I knew we were destined for a correction.

Game 3 Mariano gives me a BS and loses. He has given up 4ER already.
Still alive but pessimism is abound.

Game 3 is an instant classic but goes the way of the BrewBallers. Huntley is on the ropes...

After winning game 1 10-0, the Mashers dropped three straight including a heart-breaking 2-1 loss in game 4. They will not be getting promoted to perfect.

I don't even...

Somehow my ridiculously overpowered 125 win bronze league champions have conspired to lose 3-1 in the first round of the playoffs to the wild card winners, with the "highlight" being triple crown winner 97 Rube Waddell giving up 5 runs to lose to 59 overall Chris Flexen. (Charlie Morton and Tyler Glasnow conspiring to give up 9 runs in 4 innings in game 3 is a close second)

I know the game has a large random element, but come on! That was embarrassing. I am embarrassed.

Huntley won game 4, 6-3, to force a game 5 back in Huntley. We've only lost 2 Division Series home game 5s in a row, so maybe there's hope?

In the other NC Division Series, the Virginia Beach Freaks beat RealMadrid in game 1, but El Blanco took the next 3 and will host the winner of Huntley/Elon in the NC Sub-League Series. In the AC, the Texas Texans surprisingly swept away the Slumberton Slumlords and await the winged winner of OMGPuppies' Parakeets matchup with the Firebirds, currently tied at 2 apiece.

Interesting that my 127-win, division-winning team doesn't have homefield advantage in the Sub-League Series against pappyzan's 103-win division-winning team. WTH? Especially frustrating when the team is pushing the envelope with strategy settings/ballpark factors...

Bug? Anyone else seen this before? I mean, that team did take 4/6 regular season matchups, but that isn't how it should be decided.

"Competitive balance" is almost an oxymoron isn't it?

The Raccoons lost the 1st 2 games of the DS by a run each (1 in extras), but came back to win the next 3 to move on to the LCS. They keep making me think they're going to lose and then come through at the last moment (we needed 163 games to win our division).

We now are facing our division rivals, the Denver Doggos (sorry to see that Tassie lost the WC). We only went 7-12 vs Denver during the season, but I don't feel like they're any better than us, though they have a career WPct of .701 and have 8 perfect titles, so they're obviously pretty good. Will be a tough series to win. Good luck to everyone still playing!
