The potential WLB postseason bracket through 89 games.

@tabletopmania @RuthODay @APBAreplay @AlexanderRaine7

Ok, but the Knights get the number one draft pick for next year, right?

@YusufToropov @RuthODay @APBAreplay @AlexanderRaine7

I’ve thought of doing a WLB year 2. There would be some realignment but the Knights would probably get the #1 big amongst players with an unknown birthplace.

@tabletopmania @RuthODay @APBAreplay @AlexanderRaine7

Yay!

🙂

There will be a 1948 League -- two leagues, four divisions. NL, AL, NNL, NAL, all teams integrated. 28 teams. Stats will carry over, I think. But there would have to be some exceptions to account for folks like Mays. Case by case, I guess.

Aiming to match your scale -- or at least try to.

@YusufToropov @RuthODay @APBAreplay @AlexanderRaine7

The fun part about a year 2 for these types of projects is that you can modify year 1 and make the sequel even better.

@tabletopmania @RuthODay @APBAreplay @AlexanderRaine7

The idea of some pitcher having to face Ted and Barry in the same lineup is melting my synapses... "just walk them" = a survival response, I think.

Hey, what about this one?
