Preseason Predictions - As Generated by Game
Standings New York 11-7 Stamford 11-7 Baltimore 10-8 Willow City 10-8 Big Inning 9-9 Canton 9-9 San Fernando 9-9 Indianapolis 8-10 Otisburg 8-10 Tallahassee 8-10 |
I know the format of the league screws with the game for those predictions. Example: It has Pedro Martinez and forecast for 17 games. It also has Scherzer listed as one of the top 10 projected pitchers with just 6 games played and a predicted ERA of 5.14.
|
The first week will be simmed on Thursday 8/29. Will fill in more of the schedule prior to that.
Note to All Teams Please have your lineups in by 6:00 PM EST on 8/29 for those games. You can PM them to me. |
Hey EF, for those of us with the game will you be releasing a file that we can use to see our team and help set up our lineups/follow the league as it goes along?
|
Should we just PM you lineups, etc?
|
Can we also just get pm'd the star ratings so we know how they look in game?
|
Quote:
Forget PM'ing them I'd love to see the star ratings for each player perhaps alongside their draft position? I can only imagine mine go miniscule in the middle rounds and then buff back out again late (or never :) ) :popcorn: |
Quote:
Yes, please. And is there a format you want the lineup in? Do you want R/L splits or just a batting order and defensive set up. |
Posted stars with the rosters in this thread. The stars are relative to all players in the league and it looks like it downplays relievers.
Not going to post the league file. Want to keep competition as even as possible so everyone has the same chance. For lineups. As much detail as you would like, if you want to designate depth chart as well that would be fine. For pitchers you can give me stater one, starter two and then what reliever assignments you have (LR, MR, SU, CL). |
You can give me right/left or just one generic lineup. Whichever you feel comfortable with.
|
I am so glad I chose Jacob Degrom lol but 0.5 Cy Young wow.
|
PLAY BALL!!!!
|
Quote:
I can only assume he's horrendously nerfed because he averaged less than a strikeout every three innings and a K/BB of around 1.4, but come on. He managed to keep a WHIP around 1 over 453 innings and 48 complete games and it's in the top 20 all-time in single season WAR FFS. |
DOLA - any chance of a screenshot, even if you PM it to me?
|
My experience stars alone don’t determine performance. It’d be interesting to see ratings at some point.
|
I also wouldn't be hung up on the stars. I don't know how the game determines them overall.
|
Started to enter lineups but have to go deal with some teen drama. My youngest daughter's friend ran away so I am going to go join the search.
|
Any chance I can see game ratings so that I can make my lineups?
Maybe you can export ratings into CSV and attach it to a post here? |
|
Love it!

Trying to keep it about the players, not turn it into just another OOTP league. :) |
I am honestly super intrigued by this management style. An actual league where you had to GM blind - no ratings whatsoever but just worked off of statistics - would be weird as hell. And maybe amazing.

|
This is awesome, thanks for running it!
|
The big bats from Big Inning speak loudly. Wheres the pitching?
Are Canton and Indianapolis playing Slow pitch? |
The preseason predictions are hilarious in that they exactly mirror the standings after the first week.
|
Any way to see box scores?

I drafted for defense but it looks like I have a high powered offense lol.
|
I'm looking for an easy site to post the data to so I can link to it here.
It's a bit crazy at the moment, hopefully I can settle into s oattern. My mom is in the ER, I'll be going to see her shortly. We still have the friend drama going on. My daughter's friend stayed at our house last night. The more I piece together, the more i think her mother just might be insane. |
Sounds like you have your hands full. Hope your mom is ok!
|
Thank you. Okay, my daughter and her friend ended up staying over another friend's house so that cuts down on some of this. My mom has been admitted and they are still doing tests.
She is having some mild dementia from a UTI (I know that seems like an off combination but this has happened before). The nurse was treating it like we had no idea what we were talking about when we told her this is what is doing it. When she is okay she may have a few minor memory issues but nothing like what happens when she gets a UTI and is admitted to the hospital. She sort of lives in her own reality when that is going on; we're lucky so far that this has been a pleasant reality. There have been times in the past where she was paranoid that people were going to kill her and other insane things like that so we are happy when she has a reality that is at least pleasant when going through this. |
I should have time tomorrow afternoon to get back to this. I apologize for the early pause.
|
Odd that the nurse was acting that way; I'm pretty sure the UTI-dementia link is fairly well known. Then again, I've had several family members deal with dementia and my wife is in the medical field, so maybe my perception is skewed from normal.
|
Added the link to the first post.
BNN Home Page It's very basic but it should do the trick for now. Let me know if it works for everyone. |

It's the 2nd time we had pushback from a nurse. The next one that came in didn't question it, however. Just found out that she has sepsis which I know can be bad. She seems okay at this moment and they don't seem alarmed so maybe it is mild (if that is a thing). |

Will post the updated site after a few. The universe seems to be against me tonight. The stomach issue mentioned in the GotW thread, my mom seems to be losing her mind a little more tonight and the teenage drama has resurfaced. My daughter's friend is apparently in the hospital in handcuffs. The only story I have heard so far is from her mother but I think she is a little insane to be honest so I don't know what to think. The last thing her mother said was something about having her church pray over her daughter because she is full of evil spirits. That kind lo loses credibility with me.

Updated the online files.
