1974. I've simmed it countless times. Here's what I've noticed:
1. CAL overperforms, often winning the division title.
2. OAK and BAL and LA seldom approach their RL team ERAs.
3. Each team's FldPct and RF is wildly inconsistent from one sim to the next.
The major problem is defense, I believe. Maybe there's not enough difference between the best and worst defensive teams. Or maybe play outcomes do not take defense into consideration enough. Or the formula for calculating defensive ratings is inadequate.
Does this match up with your experience, old timer?
