Steroid Era (1986-2005) Tournament: JENNY LEWIS HITMEN WIN!

Can you list the tie breakers for the 3 of us?

Lament · Post by **Lament** » Mon December 12, 2016 11:31 am

Which in essence means, if there is a three-way tie...

Spoiler: show: That means all three teams finished 42-28. That would mean Say No To Drugs would get the #1 seed due to their 12-8 overall record against the other two teams. Sabo's Goggles would then get the #2 seed due to the superior record (5-5 as opposed to 3-7) against the highest finishing opponent. Jenny Lewis Hitmen can only get the #1 seed by finishing 43-27 while the other two teams finish 42-28. If Say No To Drugs takes 2 of 3 tomorrow and Jenny Lewis Hitmen don't sweep their series, they will finish in first no matter what.

Which means...

Spoiler: show: If Sabo's Goggles take 2 of 3 and Jenny Lewis Hitmen only take 1 of 3, Say No To Drugs will get the #2 seed by virtue of their head to head advantage. If Say No To Drugs and Jenny Lewis Hitmen both either sweep or get swept, Say No To Drugs get the higher seed.

I was considering throwing all of my bench players into the lineup for tomorrow's games, but that would be unfair considering I'm playing one of the three contenders.

Instead, I'm going the opposite direction and treating it as if I was still in contention. I'm moving Johnson up to game two and Brown to game three to get Mussina out.

Good luck!

I just finished updating a whole bunch of stats and realized that I've outscored my opponents by 45 runs. And I'm one game above .500.

Yeah I need to catch up on stats.

Were strikeouts really high for everyone else? My pitchers have struck out 720 batters, or 10.56 K/9, but I assume it's just me since my batters only struck out 486 times.

Semifinals are as follows...

Spoiler: show: Game 1: Jenny Lewis Hitmen @ Say No To Drugs
Game 2: Jenny Lewis Hitmen @ Say No To Drugs
Game 3: Say No To Drugs @ Jenny Lewis Hitmen
Game 4: Say No To Drugs @ Jenny Lewis Hitmen
Game 5: Jenny Lewis Hitmen @ Say No To Drugs (if necessary)
Game 6: Say No To Drugs @ Jenny Lewis Hitmen (if necessary)
Game 7: Jenny Lewis Hitmen @ Say No To Drugs (if necessary)

Notes from the OP...

The playoffs will be best-of-seven series. We will use the same rules about pitching rotations/rest as we did in the every other tournament. You will have the option to start someone on two games' rest twice during the playoffs. You will have the option to do it four times during the regular season as well (where the same three games' rest rule applies). A pitcher CANNOT start on two games' rest in consecutive starts. He needs a full three games before he can start again after starting on short rest.

Just one.

I'm going Buehrle in game one, Schmidt in game two, and Garrelts in game three. Lowe is tentatively my game four starter.

I have no one from my squad to suggest for MOP-Pitcher (the closest would be Eric Gagne, but he'd probably warrant a 4th or 5th place vote at best...16 saves in 17 opportunities, 0.84 ERA, 0.797 WHIP, 13.5 K/9), but I have to imagine Barry Bonds is one of the leading candidates for MOP-Position Player. A .349/.558./.699 slash line, 21 home runs, 103 walks (to only 30 strike outs), and 67 runs scored (over 17% of my team's runs for the season) thankfully justified taking him #1 overall. Carlos Baerga would make for a good second tier candidate (.345/.375/.524, 12 home runs, 114 hits, and 59 runs scored), and was probably the most pleasant surprise on my team (though Hoiles' big bounce back after a terrible first 15 or so games was nice).

Tim Salmon sucks.
