Missed the playoffs by one game. Came down to the last game of the season between us and NC winner goes to the playoffs and we couldn't get it done. The two losses to NY to start the sim hurt as well. Looks like we still have a little bit of work to do this off season!

Whew, good series Steve.  Entered the final series of the season against you tied for the wild card.  Each won one game to keep it tied for the finale.  I guess you could say the playoffs started 3 days early for us.

Yeah this battle went back and forth! I really thought we would need a 163rd game!

Steve, you know normally I am rooting (american version not australian version) for ya but since I have your top 3 draft picks, I'm not sad you came up short :)

I MADE THE PLAYOFFS! I never was not in 1st in the division or wildcard. What a season. One game behind Ill. too so this team can contend!

Was just at our team v team record this year, we swept a total of 7 teams this season, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Iowa, Kentucky, New Mexico & Washington... all teams in the Frontier League except Georgia... we even beat Colorado 3-1... hmmm ;) :D

The worry is that we didn't have a record better than .500 against any of the PL playoff teams (.500 v NC and WV and  a very poor 7-11 v Ontario).

For me I just wanted a strong finish to see the young talent could contribute to wins next season. Ken Thomas had a much better second sim after his call up with 3 multi hit games in the last 7. Pat Gordon came up and hit .310 with 3 hrs and 9 RBIs. MacIntosh had a strong first season. Kirby, whose still only 21, hit .280 with 24 HR and 92 RBI. Duarte put up real solid power numbers despite having no protection behind him most of the season. As the line up matures, should be really solid. Al Jones has good power for the lower third of the line up where he will be long term. So I am at least moving in a forward direction, slowly.

I really dont understand how Roberto Maillot gets 11 first place votes but 2 people dont vote for him at all like dude i know they voted because Clark has 2 first place votes and WV doesnt have any votes for GM of the year weird

I hope this comment is not taken out of context as I think Statslab is fricking amazing but my problem with the voting is the seemingly inability to sort. It says due to browser compatibility but which browsers can i sort and pick from that list and instantly add. I dont have time to write them down nor can I remember. That is how many players i should vote for get missed.

Have 2 windows open on the same page, sort in one window, select in the other window, simple.

It's annoying but yes do what Mike said with 2 windows or tabs. I sometimes use 2 browsers and sort with one while vote with another.

Is it inconvenient?  Yes.

Is it even remotely difficult?  No.  I do not believe voting gets majorly skewed because of this at all.  If you are having issues voting, I'd recommend you abstain.
