MLB 10: The Show Simulates the 2010 Season

[RaychelSnr]

The infancy of the 2010 MLB season is wearing off at this point. Interleague play has begun and the All-Star voting is in full swing. To get an idea of what lies ahead, we have already simulated the the 2010 season in MLB 2K10.

Here now is what the 2010 season looks like in MLB 10: The Show.

Now these i can deal with, i dont know what happen in the 2k sim

LMAO, the AL West is upside down form what it is in real life. But I guess the A's can go the entire season only winning 10 more games. Also Adrian Gonzalez to the Royals? Never would have seen that one coming. Phillies also got hosed in that Moyer deal. But all in all a decent sim I guess.

Also, what is the MLB rule for a tie breaker in the event of a 3 way tie? You couldn't possibly have a 3 team playoff, can you?

Well, it's all good. But sim again, different results. Sim again, different results. That's what I like about the game is the amount of variables. It's not written in stone.

I believe a three-way tie is handled by labeling the teams as "A", "B", and "C". I'm not sure how they decide which team holds the advantage over the other in selecting who is A,B, or C.

I think that C then plays a game at B. The winner of that game then plays a game at A. The winner of that takes the three-way tie breaker.

I could be horribly wrong but I remember reading this somewhere not too long ago.

I think that's spot- on. I think teams A, B, and C are chosen by lots, and they get to pick which team that they want to be.

Nice read. One thing I really hope is fixed next year is the trade logic. Why are the Royals giving up a top pitching prospect for Adrian Gonzalez when they have no shot at winning in the sim?

Wow @ yall doing my Astros like that...48-114 WTF?!?!?!?!

I think that The Show's final results seem pretty accurate.

How are these results accurate at all? When was the last time the league had TWO teams losing over 110 games, if at all? How in the world are the A's gonna lose 112 games with the rotation, bullpen, and defense they have?

If these are the results you're getting, it's time for SCEA to reevaluate how they come up with ratings.

Take it for what's it's worth. They are in first place in my franchise.

[MizzyMike05]

wow. i like it. it seems pretty realistic. the pirates in mlb 2k10's sim went 80-82, which is pretty heartbreaking lol. and in the show, they simmed to be 82-80. lol. that's why i love the show. just kidding. the show is definitely top notch, but not because it simmed the pirates to a winning record. again, i wish i knew wat some of their stats were.

I know the cliche 'that's why they play 162 games', but at their current winning percentages, the Indians would lose 101 games, the Astros would lose 107, and the Orioles would lose 111. Not out of the realm of possibilities.

Grnngld is hatin'. Why though ? It's just 1 simulation and the majority seem to agree it's not a bad projection.
