2091 Season Thread - Into the Future

[TheGobOne]

File is up. Reports and S+ to follow.

- Playoff file up! Congrats to Seattle in the AL and Rose City, Winterfell, and Charleston for snagging the final WC spots. All 3 had exact same records, unsure how the tie was broken but I would guess head to head record or RD.

- First round will be scheduled when all teams ping me on Slack they have exported.

#bEast Champs!

Rose City finished strong to take the first playoff spot for a long time. Our reward? Our 19-8 rookie pitcher is shelved for the entire playoffs. We will last 3 games I feel.

Sanchez getting his first MVP?

[TheGobOne]

We are going to open up Award Voting to the GMs (instead of the AI) starting this year as a trial. Award Voting is open and we will see what kind of participation we get. If we don't get at least 75% participation I will just use the AI again so please VOTE!

If this goes well we can do it for Allstars as well but this is just a trial run for now.

Always loved that guy. Got my vote.

[Graywolf357]

What do mean i can't vote for my self for GM of the year? 100 Million on the IR. No money to buy anyone. Playoffs!!!!!!

[DRiccio21]

I think I’ve had like 5-6 major arms in my system have season ending surgeries this year. Yuck

[cougnix]

Richard Thomas for RC is the only reason we made the playoffs. 3.4 WAR as a pitcher and 19-8 record. Do the right thing. Vote for him...

[Cnasty]

Hips Dont Bly back to back Cy Youngs should be incoming.

Will be actively shopped this offseason, poor fella.

Felt really good going into October with the last 2 rings.
This year doesn't have that same zing.
Let's give it a go for 3 in a row!

I like the objectivity of the cpu voting for awards, but maybe I’m in the minority there

Sanchez getting his first MVP?

Fernandez beats him in nearly every category. So if he does it's a highway robbery

Except every defensive statistic which is half the game

Cpu has messed up awards many times especially defensive awards and pitchers

I remember Bly shouldve won rookie of the year and pitcher of the year his first season and miseed out lol

Defensive example would be McCauley- def shoukd have a gold glove by now

[DRiccio21]

And we’ve done user awards and people would refuse to vote for certain owners due to grudges.

If you think human voting is better and more immersive, that’s fine. If you think it’s going to be more fair or thoughtful I’d say we disagree. 80% of guys are going to use a metric they care about and go down the line choosing the top guy in that metric without any thought.

I’m not saying you’re wrong but It’s also possible the algorithm it uses and the things you look at and consider to be valuable aren’t the same.

I just prefer a more standardized way of getting awards for the integrity of league history mostly

[TheGobOne]

Well we have 8 full ballots and need 22 so it looks like AI is back on the menu....unless a shit ton of you start voting.
