Garcia's Blog 7/9/15- ATG Additional Players #4

PostThu Jul 09, 2015 4:14 pm

Hey guys,

It's back! We will again be adding new players to the ATG game. It's going to be a little different this time though. No nominations but more players will be added. Two new polls have been set up here and here. One includes 9 EXP teams, the other 3 PRE teams. The top 2 vote-getters in the EXP group and the top team in the PRE group will have their players added to ATG.

Here's the list of teams in the two polls:

EXP
2005 Chicago White Sox
2004 Boston Red Sox
2003 Florida Marlins
2002 Anaheim Angels
2001 Seattle Mariners
1999 Atlanta Braves
1998 San Diego Padres
1997 Cleveland Indians
1994 Montreal Expos
1991 Minnesota Twins

PRE
1940 St. Louis Browns
1932 Philadelphia Phillies
1926 Chicago White Sox

This is a nod back to the early days of ATG where the player set was based on whole teams rather than individual player additions. Also what this does is allow some more cheaper sub players to be added to the set rather than high salaried players only. The voting is split into two polls to ensure that players of both eras are added to the set.

When a team does win the vote and those players get added to ATG, just remember that the low-usage players will not be added. A guy with 80 AB who hit .350 will not be going in, even if they were on the team that won the poll.

The poll will run for a week and, as has been the case for all of the previous additions, it will take a few weeks after the poll has closed for the players to be added.

Without any further ado let's get to the vote. Again, you can find the EXP vote here and the PRE vote here.

As always if anyone has any questions please let us know at onlinegamesupport@strat-o-matic.com. I will announce the winners and talk to you all next Thursday!

-John
