2019 Regular Season SIM 26.2 Complete - Next SIM Wednesday 1/11 ATL

The sex is and has been over for a while.

Congrats to Washington for getting the division. Time to play our old nemesis Windy City in the playoffs again. Great job getting back by them and to all the new faces. It's good to see new blood come October!

Swept KC and LA to finish with 88 wins, which I honestly didn't think was possible before the season started.

Very appropriate that my first playoff series is against Pittsburgh.

This is the third straight year I've finished 96-66. The last two years it's only been good enough to finish a game behind Philly and then Batavia. Thankfully, it was enough to win us the Stout this time around. We've lost deciding games on the road the past two seasons and we've now got home field. We'll see how it goes.

For the season as a whole, I'm pretty happy with how some of my younger guys have stepped up. Schneider, Turnbow, Moody, Abrams have all done well. We weren't carried by Urmson or Morales to the extent we had been in the past, though they were both still good. Lippert is noticeably falling off, but Carroll is healthy and starting to look like an ace. The two September callups, Thompson and Roseboom, both showed that they belong in the BLB. We're going to lose Lippert and Urmson to free agency, but we might be ok going forward.

Batavia is in. Good luck Windy City...you've done a great job getting them back to the playoffs back to back.

It's really the only reason men have children.

My marriage was awesome for the first 10 years until my wife found out I had a secret vasectomy.
Ha ha, the look on her face!!
I've had sex 3 times since then. I love my 3 kids.

Question - Tom Palmer is out for 2 weeks. If I want him to play later, do I have to add him into the playoff roster now? or can I wait?

Oh, right, you've never set a playoff roster before.

You have an opportunity to adjust your playoff roster between rounds.

In the unlikely event you defeat Maine, you can add him to your playoff roster for the next round.

Our export is in and we're more than ready after that comment!

(For the record, my last playoff roster was the 1995 Davenport Brawlers! )

Is there a chance we SIM earlier than Wednesday? #NewbPlayoffQuestions

[liquidcrash]

In the past, we've simmed as soon as all the playoff team are in, so I'm guessing we'll continue to do that, if the commish schedules allow.

Do I have to do anything this sim? Or can I just set my roster prior to the Divisional Round?

Tom "the undrafted" Driggs recorded the 7th All-Time best ERA in Dallas this year. He also was the 2nd best mark All-Time in W % in Dallas. Now is leading the Winning % by Starts with a 77,1%. To finish among other appareances Tom Driggs has the new best WHIP in a Single Season in Dallas... Awesome season.

Dusty Orbon is 9th in All-Time Victories in Dallas after just 3 seasons.
