week 22

tim has clinched the west. i think i have clinched the east.

 

can't figure out the rest of the east with tiebreakers and such, but i'm pretty sure the winner of HBC/hips is in.

Tiebreaker reminder (from the CBS "League Details" page)

 

Ties in the standings are resolved in this order: Winning Percentage, Head to Head Record, Division Record, Total Points, Points Against (Schedule Difficulty).

 

This is also how draft order ties are broken.

do i get anything good for most points

Running through that, GHS is in. Dealer's is in b/c he's got tie breaker over HIPS and HBC. So winner of HBC and HIPS gets the last spot.

 

Quakers has tie break over STI. So truffle only gets in if he wins & Quakers loses.

a lower draft pick than me if we finish with the same record.

Division record for draft order?

I think so, but I don't remember. I've never understood why division record is above total points, which seems to be a better indicator of strength of team (after w/l and H2H). But I didn't make the rules.

[abuck1220]

yeah, i think i was going to switch those but never did. probably should make points ahead of division record starting next year. i'd even be in favor of total points being the 1st tiebreaker.

[abuck1220]

"winning percentage" has broken a lot of pesky ties over the years.

[Tracer Bullet]

I guess it envisions a potential tie during one week, so two teams can have the same number of wins but not win %? That's always struck me as odd.

 

I think we've discussed total points/H2H before, but as a H2H weekly league, I think H2H has to be the first tie break between two teams. But total points should be next.

My team is preparing for the playoffs with appreciation to the Dodgers for Kershaw's 2 start week next week.

 

I'm still pissed about somehow putting Posey on the bench last week when I made the Gregorius transaction. That cost me first place because I had to use the app that day and clearly need more practice on hitting edit / save.

And, as far as whom I'd want to face next week, I'd say Budcrew. HIPS has a pretty nice rotation set up should they advance.

it doesn't look like you made the posey and gregorius transactions at the same time.
