Schedule proposal

[Colby]

As of right now, the schedule is random and we are all facing too many teams outside of our division, let alone league.  I came up with a system a while back that looked at each week's games on Monday in the real season, and set a schedule based on that.  It is a fair representation of divisional play, but there are a few matchups that are a bit frequent.  Let me know what you think and if it is worth it to employ over the NL-AL, non-divisional schedule...

Five Cubs-Reds series is a bit much, but I think this schedule is much closer to reality than a random one.  Bring it on Danno! I like how both Mondays of inter league play against the White Sox were picked up too!

I won't have to play the Brewers? sign me up... Mike - two men enter, one man leaves

I suppose some adjustments could be made.  Anyone else have thoughts on the schedule?

AL East teams seem to be missing from the chart except for my Jays

I don't like the AL East... j/k, I'll fix that later today.  IMO, this schedule is better than completely random.

I fixed the original post..  :bump:

I'd be lucky if I beat your Reds once in those five series.

I'd like to see at least one series against all division foes, if not two.  I noticed I don't even play Jon's Braves during the season.  My two cents. :koolaid:

We could design a schedule based on divisional play.  This option is not available in Fantrax because of uneven divisions.
