I’d be interested in seeing which divisions are toughest in terms of tournament competition - i.e which have the highest number of current top owners. I know I don’t have redcped in any of my divisions but I don’t have Chitownbluz either.

But schwarze, you missed our division in 3-C with the top 3 teams in the league all in the AL East ;). I know, it doesn't have as many total wins because the 4th team is 55-87 lol...

Right, there are a few ways you can measure division strength. One way is to rank them by the third best team's record. Since this division is likely going to have the best team to not make the playoffs.

Geez, I just realized that not only do I have a team in a division where three teams are on a pace to win 95 games, but I have THREE other teams in divisions where all FOUR teams are over .500. How it is possible to have 4 of 6 teams in ridiculous divisions? Currently on a pace to only get 4 playoff teams.

Did some quick back of the envelop calculations. Through 151 games, the other 12 teams in these 4 divisions are 101 games over .500 (excluding head to head games vs my teams).

League 4a, AL West went 353-295. The last place team won 86 games.

Here was the tournament's best division, 373 wins (93.25 per team).
