RoyalsBlue Historical Replay 1901-2006

Well, I just finished simming through 2006 using Gambo's db. The only settings that I changed was to make it as no recalc and to have the players be drafted rather than sent to their "real-life" teams.

The Yankees and Cardinals have the most playoff appearances at 25, however the Yanks only have 5 championships in comparison to the Cardinals 11.

The Phillies and Dodgers are tied for second in championships won with 10. In fact, the Dodgers had one of the most impressive runs from 1965 through 1974 with 6 championships in 8 total appearances in the decade, winning 5 consecutive from 1966 through 1970.

Individually, there are several outstanding hitters and pitchers. The hitting award was named in honor of Ted Williams and the pitching award named after Kid Nichols.

Ted Williams -(1935-1962) held both the alltime hits (4160) and homerun (733) records until recently when Hal Morris (4371) and Mark McGwire (1010) broke them in convincing fashion.

Kid Nichols - (1890-1905) stills holds the alltime wins (348) even though Frank Lary (342) tried to match. The closest active pitchers are Kenny Rogers (305) and Joel Davis (303) but they're both entering their 25th season.

That's just a little start as I'm still looking at the stats and stuff, trying to really decide where to start. If anyone wants to know about their favorites, just let me know!
