My Frank Costanza Lives team has a shot at 3 30 game winners. Does that get me anything?

We just played game #112...

Big Ed just got win #9 in 19 games. I will update Casey and Buffinton's progress later.

I’ve got team in for bounty #3. This will be tough to gauge as it’s a running bounty, but they’re on a torrid pace 19 games in.

150/166 through 19 games, for a pace of 1279SB.

The current OL record for SB is 1208, to give an idea on the current pace of the team.

Some fun stats on my SB team. Through 27 games, the league TEAM average is 41SB. We currently have two PLAYERS with 41+SB.

Through 27 games, on two players are averaging less than 1SB/G. One is averaging .89sb/g, and the other is at .78sb/g. As a team we're at 9.45sb/g, for a pace of 1,530sb. (OL record is 1200)

OK, since the Crazy Professor got 80 wins, that means my combo of Seward (tracking for 46 at the 87 game mark) and Ferguson (tracking for 48) have no shot at a bounty now for a 50-50?

You can still get bragging rights, but the GC has been claimed.

At game 155 Ferguson joined Seward at 50 wins. I'll post their final stats at seasons end.

Way to go FatDad!!

Nice job on the 50/50, FatDad!

Ryno, mind dropping your lineup's stats so far in here? I can never seem to get anybody above 100 or so steals, and I'm particularly interested to see who you've got at C and the corners

Not related to a bounty, but something I was trying:

Team	User	Total	Active	Offense	Lineup	Bench	Pitchers	Rotation	Bullpen
Cheapest Pitching Possible (Mostly)	just4me	81402029	75950701	66054664	61201550	4853114	9896037	3831020	6065017

That’s a sub-$10m pitching staff in an OL.

Early, but the returns so far:

East	W-L	PCT	GB	Division	1-Run G	Extra Inn	RS	RA	Exp.%	Owner
Insane Trippers	17-13	0.567	-	8-4	2-5	0-0	216	153	0.669	MountRainer
Cheapest Pitching Possible (Mostly)	15-15	0.500	2	7-5	2-5	0-0	206	177	0.578	just4me

Have them in Dodger Stadium. I also have the inverse:

Team	User	Total	Active	Offense	Lineup	Bench	Pitchers	Rotation	Bullpen

They aren’t doing quite as good:

Cheapest Hitting Possible (Mostly)	10-23	0.303	11	3-9	5-5	0-3	79	111	0.364	just4me

Also in Dodger Stadium. Before the season I playfully asked the league to take over/under on 54 wins for the cheap hitters team. Right now their pace puts them at 49, their Pythag at 59. Still think 54 is a good over/under line.

The mostly for the cheap hitting team was because with the absolute cheapest hitters available and only being able to take 6 pitchers, even with the best pitching staff I could get, I still had $5.5m left over, so I put that into hitters I dumped on WW to grab a reliever. For the pitchers team, the mostly refers to me taking the cheapest 1,350 IP as opposed to just the cheapest 1,200. I wanted to try to avoid fatigue issues in addition to quality issues.

Don’t worry, no plans to have a bounty for winning games while spending less than $10m on hitting or pitching.

Also 110 wins, 20 games out of first. https://www.whatifsports.com/mlb-l/manage.asp

Excellent job on the 50-50! And being 20GB with that record is insane.

SimBaseball Bounty Three -- The One About Stolen Bases:

This bounty is a little different, it's not going to be awarded to the first to achieve something, but the one who reaches the highest score between now and the end of the year (with games ending on 12/3120 PM2 cycle). This one will be a guaranteed winner to the one who achieves the most net stolen bases (stolen bases minus caught stealing) as a team during this time frame for a team that wins at least 90 games.

I'll keep a tally of the leader right here in this box for easy reference.

Current Leader:

Do you have an active leader for this one yet? We certainly won't be the ones to claim the bounty, but just to give everyone something to shoot for, I just finished an OL with a team that won 94 games and had 432 net SB (510-78).
