2009 Playoffs

[Colby]

FYI, four games left in the night to decide the playoffs, but it appears that the Indians and Twins are tied in the division.  Tiebreaker is decided by combined standings.  Also, the Marlins are currently two points off of the Braves for the wildcard.

Screenshots below...dates say the 12th, but I updated the images as of this morning.

Playoff races are set... first round is from today to the 19th!  To see how your team does, go to the standings and look for the stats between the 13th and 19th of September.  I will post the results here on the forum!

Yankees vs. Twins
Angels vs. Red Sox

Phillies vs. Dodgers
Brewers vs. Marlins

The Twins took back the division by tying it up, but they are ahead in the combined standings.  The Marlins pulled ahead of the Braves in the final minutes of all of the games last night!  Congrats GMs!!!!

After Day 1/7...

New York Yankees  - 1 - 1.219 - 11.8 - 0.5 - 1.25 - 7
Minnesota Twins  - 1 - 1.242 - 7.3 - 2.33 - 1.5 - 5

Boston Red Sox  - 1 - 0.937 - 7 - 2.5 - 0.82 - 12
Los Angeles Angels  - 0.944 - 0.686 - 2.4 - 1 - 1 - 0

Milwaukee Brewers  - 1 - 0.753 - 2.5 - 4 - 0.89 - 8

Twins-Yankees series is already lighting it up...  Red Sox pummel the Angels in the first "game"...  Jorge's fish hope to stay alive against the red-hot Brew Crew... and the Phillies put up consistent, not flashy, numbers to continue their winning ways from last year.

Ive got my money on the Brewers, they are a great sleeper team.

I am thinking Yankees, Angels, Phillies, and Brewers will all move on to the ALCS / NLCS.

Thanks! Here is how the playoffs are shaping up mid-way through the week.

TEAM - FLD%  - OPS  - RC - SO/BB  - WHIP - SCORE
New York Yankees  - 1 - 1.119 - 26.8 - 0.88 - 1.35 - 8
Minnesota Twins  - 1 - 1 - 15.2 - 2.43 - 1.36 - 4

Boston Red Sox  - 1 - 0.88 - 11.5 - 2.83 - 0.83 - 12
Los Angeles Angels  - 0.969 - 0.677 - 9.2 - 2.8 - 1.32 - 0

Philadelphia Phillies  - 1 - 0.729 - 9.6 - 99.99 - 2 - 6
Los Angeles Dodgers  - 0.982 - 0.716 - 10.8 - 3.2 - 1.26 - 6

Florida Marlins  - 0.97 - 0.95 - 11.8 - 1.75 - 2.09 - 4
Milwaukee Brewers  - 0.973 - 0.67 - 7 - 2.31 - 1.28 - 8

The real-life Red Sox have been on a tear as of the last four games which is helping Eric surprisingly shutout the Angels thus far.  The AL bouts are all about the AL East pummeling its opponents whereas the NL has the tight matchups.  The Phillies will need  to pick up their innings to actually win the pitching categories though.

What are the tie-breakers during the playoffs?  Is it still based on which team is leading in the Combined Standings?

What are the weekly requirements for AB/IP?
