In this case, I will click on the Chicago Cubs. In Scott’s example, I’m clicking on National League of 2011 (if you’re lucky and the team you want won the league pennant, it will already be displayed and you can click on it on this page). Scroll down and click on the year and league you want. On the right, you will see a list of seasons beginning with the current one. That will bring you to B-R’s Leagues page. Once you visit Baseball Reference main site, the third link over from the left is Seasons. Since he mentioned the Cubs, we’ll make them part of it, too. I’ll start from the Baseball Reference home page and use Scott’s 2011 season as the example. Baseball Reference gets its data from so that is another option as well. I use Baseball Reference which as many of you know, has stats, standings, and yes, lineups for almost every season of MLB’s history. I responded back with “my way” of extracting lineups but after some thought, I realized their are some more efficient ways to do it as well. Where can I find old lineups and how hard is it to set up in the game? I want to try and use actual lineups for all the CPU teams and use my own for the Cubs. I’m starting to work on the next Windows season 2011. But regardless of an individual’s position, there must be honesty and consistency.My friend (and APBA Blog contributor) Scott Fennessy emailed me with a question a couple days ago: Each of us has the right to disagree with the results of the Hall of Fame voting. The only difference is that the stakes are much higher with real baseball teams.Īs Jerry Springer might say, each of us is entitled to her or his values. Please explain why a major league general manager who wants to put the best team he can on the field shouldn’t employ the services of Alex Rodriguez or Roger Clemens but a computer game “general manager” can. If you select a cheater or an alleged cheater for your team, how can you claim that he doesn’t belong in the Hall of Fame? Don’t give the duplicitous response that there is a difference between a computer simulation team and the Hall of Fame. It is a fascinating question because it’s “put up or shut up.” How many individuals whose position is that Clemens, Bonds, A-Rod, McGwire and others, such as Sammy Sosa and Jeff Bagwell shouldn’t be in the Hall of Fame would select any one of them for their computer game team?

The rest of the money is divided among the top losers. The league champion receives $1,000 for winning. Once a player is selected, regardless of which season the selection is based upon, another team cannot select him.Įach “general manager” must pay a $100 fee to join the league. Each of the 16 “general managers” must select 25 players from the 2000-07 seasons.
