  • 2012 Races - Everyone has something to play for)

    DL

    ALE
    1. Maine 90-59
    2. Pittsburgh 90-59
    3. Pawtucket 85-64


    Maine holds the tie breaker over Pittsburgh with a head-to-head record of 11-7. Maine has the easiest remaining schedule in the entire DL (44.5%), with nine of the 13 games at home. Pittsburgh has the much tougher schedule (51.3%), with nine of their 13 games on the road. Pawtucket has an easy first week (vs. NO, vs. HAR) and then a hellish final week (3 @ MAI, 4 @ PIT). Pawtucket holds the tie breaker over Pittsburgh (10-7). With a strong showing this week, Pawtucket could really make the final week interesting in the Ale.

    LAGER
    1. X-Los Angeles 85-64


    Los Angeles is the only team in the BLB to clinch the division. They do however have "something to play for." Right now the team sits as the #2 seed with home field in the first round. With the 2nd easiest schedule remaining in the DL (45.9%) and majority of their games at home, they seem like a near lock to land the #2 seed. However, only five games back of Maine/Pitt for the #1 overall seed, and the Ale playing each other the final two weeks, the Dinos could actually make a surprise run at home field throughout the DL playoffs.

    PILSNER
    1. Indianapolis - 84-65
    2. Dallas - 80-69
    3. Syracuse - 76-73


    Indy holds a four game lead over Dallas, holds the tie breaker (11-8) and the teams have just two games left to play one another. Unfortunately, Indy has the toughest remaining schedule in the entire BLB (55.3%) with half their games on the road. Dallas has a much easier schedule (47.7%) and three of the four remaining series at home, including the two games against Indy. Syracuse has been red-hot since calling up CF Roman Chutz going 16-9 since early August. They will have to be even hotter to win the Pilsner. They have a tough remaining schedule (52.8%) but with four games against Dallas and Indy, they do have a bit of control of their own fate.

    WILDCARD
    1. Pittsburgh 90-59
    2. Pawtucket 85-64
    3. Dallas - 80-69


    The Ale can rest easy knowing that the teams finishing 2nd and 3rd are near locks to win the Wild Card. Dallas has a .03% chance of snatching the #2 Wild Card spot. Remember, the new Wild Card rules places the #1 WC at home against the #2 WC in a single game elimination, so the seeding matters.

    IL

    STOUT
    1. Washington 86-63
    2. Death Valley 85-64


    Washington has an average (50%) remaining schedule, with more games on the road than at home. They hold a slight edge in the tie-breaker over Death Valley (9-8), with three games remaining. Death Valley has a similar schedule (49.6%) with more road games than home as well. The three game series between these two will be played in Washington.

    BOCK
    1. Carolina 95-54
    2. Davenport 86-63


    Carolina has an average remaining schedule (49.7%) with three of the four series at home. They are a near lock for the Bock and the #1 seed in the entire BLB. However, they have not yet clinched but it seems very likely. Davenport has an easier schedule (48.4%) with more home games than road. It would take a lot of lucky dice rolls for them to win the Bock, or to even be close for the final week. The Brawlers are however a 99.2% chance of landing one of the two Wild Card spots. You can bet they have their eye on the #1 seed.

    PORTER
    1. Baltimore 86-63
    2. Batavia 80-69


    Baltimore has the easiest remaining schedule in the BLB (43.5%) with two series at home and two on the road. Batavia is six games back in the Porter, five games back in the Wild Card with a below average schedule remaining (47.2%). They also have two series at home and two on the road.

    WILDCARD
    1. Davenport 86-63
    2. Death Valley 85-64
    3. Batavia 80-69


    Batavia has a 1.6% chance of landing the Wild Card. This probably boils down to Stout #2 vs. Davenport.

    Thoughts? Predictions? Who are you rooting for?

    I smell Lonnie Coleman....and damn I'm glad we added the #2 Wild Card spot.

        Pawtucket has been a mortal lock at 3rd place most of the season. Should of taken advantage this week at home, but failed miserably.

        Assuming we get in were just hoping for the playoff reset and seeing of some of our guys play the way they're suppose to.

        If not its ok. Looks like we might have a top 5 pick coming up next season.

                First Four! So many games to watch!

                Indianapolis @ Dallas (Ind @ Syr, Dal @ Den)
                Pawtucket @ Maine (Maine @ Har, Paw @ Pitt)
                Pittsburgh @ Hartford (Paw @ Pitt)
                Death Valley @ Washington
                Davenport @ Carolina
                Baltimore @ Philadelphia
                California @ Batavia
                Toronto @ Los Angeles

                All of these match-ups have playoff implications. I think I might watch the replay on these...at least half inning at a time.

                Good luck to all contenders!
