Nice start, Jeff! If you go 162-0, even elpaso will have to acknowledge you've got the formula down! :P

I wonder if this works with ATG 80MM teams. How would I go about getting a list of championship teams?

I get the teams from the leagues I participate in myself. The only other way would be from managers who happen to post their championship teams in the forums.

Here is one with the high injury guys that just won last night in 5 games.
This may be my favorite team I have built. Scored 915 runs in Kauffman, batting over .300.

Stellar play by Castro/Aviles, my team didn't miss a beat when Manny and Youk went down with injuries.

That's a great and interesting team. No easy feat scoring that many runs.

Inspired by teams like this and [b:1636764167]Detroit-Tiger's[/b:1636764167] team in our Tour Semis League, I just had to get me one of those:

Since I'm in your division in the semi's, I'm hoping you don't meet the same success! :wink:

OK, ok, maybe enough to be the wildcard...

This came up last year, I think. The result, I imagine, would be a soft bell-shaped curve around 81 wins. The division winners would likely be the beneficiaries of a few more one-run game wins (ie, luck).

They would also likely benefit from a more favorable autodraft (ie, luck) and a favorable waiver draft (ie, luck).

No sense playing out the experiment, as most tour leagues already do this for us.
