Seca Joined: 05/05/2014 Posts: 5194 Waterloo Dinosaurs Legends | Had a conversation with Haselrig a while back about the value of team rating. The only practical value team rating has (afaik) is the initial rankings at the start of the season. This dictates your schedule. I ended up telling Haselrig that the only way rating meant something was if one of the schedules was more difficult than the others. My rating ranked me 4th in my league. AFAIK this is my first time on the #4 schedule. I am currently in the middle of 3 consecutive 4 game series. It is the first time I can recall having 3 4-gamers in a row. It is a disadvantage. Your bullpen gets beat down with no time to recover. It is minor. I'm not complaining. But thought it was interesting. I have quite a bit of experience with the #6 schedule which actually lays out really nicely. Have a new found appreciation for those #4 horses. |

I do know that if it wasn't for the cup games I'd be losing a lot of money this week, only one home series in the league games. Updated Saturday, November 28 2015 @ 6:20:58 pm PST |

My #1 starter was injured (15 days) for the first three and is due back for game 2 of tomorrow's series. Of the past 12 games four went into extra innings; 15, 14, 12 & 12. Somehow the pitching staff has not burned itself out and we have a 2 game lead in the West |

The 3 consecutive league 4-gamers does get repeated in the final 3rd of the schedule. Thought they might get broken up by the cup, but they fall tuesday-wednesday-thursday. |
