Rule V #69 Draft Thread (Nice!) Topic

Posted by rbow923 on 12/19/2020 5:07:00 PM (view original):
Would winning % put the best 12 in the NL and the worst 12 in the AL? Or maintain league setup and divide each group of 12 by %? Makes a big difference.
Good question. I didn't propose that idea, so I'm not sure what the plan was. I would be inclined to do the latter, but again, it wasn't my proposal.

My proposal is to use the lifetime league winning % to put into divisions accordingly. So, no AL/NL separation, solely based on the draft order.

Okay, so 12 worst in NL, 12 best in AL? Or 4 worst in NL, next 4 in AL, and so on?

12 worst in NL / 12 best in AL - in order of all-time league winning %. so basically it would follow the draft line exactly.

This forumula would give teams like the Rays, Dbacks, and Tigers greater opportunity to reach playoffs. Plus, it would rearrange the lifetime winning%'s to a greater degreee i believe.

I voted, in the end, I'm fine with whatever the group chooses
