So, my OL team "Let Me Win Once And I'll Stop Doing This" you guys helped me build is coming down to the wire on if they will make the playoffs. They are currently 86-63, 1 game back in the division.

Basically I'm a horrible manager and shouldn't play this game.

I was figuring we'd chug along in a comfortable 3rd or 4th. Now all of a sudden we're T-1 again!

It's been a good few last updates. Three days ago my Yankees were under .500 and in third place, now they're in first place.


Unfortunately my t2nd overall Oakland team is in the same division as a t1st overall Twins team and stuck in a first place tie.

Harry Heilmann is carrying a 21 game hitting streak in BINGO and it dropped his OPS, and it's not exactly like he was setting the world on fire before

Needed him because my offense was so, so bad last year. At least he accepted with the 4th year being an option.

Four-goon division in Two-man Band, Barry Bonds is going to eat Pedro alive, although with Cronin's defense/Pedro's OAV I'm liking the Ichiro/Appling matchups.

Is the two man band divisional alignment really set? Doesn't it get reshuffled when the schedule is generated?

Commonly used players, basically. Guys who are known to perform well and are copied into teams over and over again, short for 'cookie cutter'.

It's usually used more for cheap performance guys - Ed Summers, HoJo, Walt Weiss, every reliever from 1915 - than the real major top-shelf guys like Joss, Ruth, Raines, etc.
