For tracking Playoff results and commentary.
Rosters will be 26 man we need updates to continue.
View/set playoff roster on Onrganization tab > "Playoff Roster" - tab is 4th over: Overview, roster, Injured List, Playoff Roster, Minor Leagues. Or you can just set the active roster.
I disabled the forced playoff eligible option.
Would recommend setting 7 day lineups if you want to control daily lineups. From the Lineups>Daily Lineups page - activate Lineup Choice to: Use Daily (from Normal).
Playoffs follow MLB. 3 game wild card round with 4 byes. 5 game Division, 7 game League, 7 game WS. expectation is to sim 2 games at a time. unless GMs agree otherwise.
Byes: BAL, CWS, STL, AZD WC round: TB v KC OAK v TEX SF v COL WSN v ATL
There is a new page in game for playoffs to see results. MLB header> Playoff coverage first option. Online pages should also give a line, I'll add when enabled.

Note for later: DET tied the AL WC teams (TB & OAK) with 87 wins but did not make playoffs. I don't know the tie breaker rules off - hand, but since DET is unowned, i'm not going to worry about it.

Does usage and stats reset like DMB?
Like can I reorder my rotation and lineup, and they’re not tired or exhausted.

no, they do not reset. It's a real world sim. Everybody has 1 off day before playoffs, which the file should reflect. This is one reason the 7 day (manual) lineups might be beneficial.

First two games finishing up, looks like it's emailing the whole league. (sorry for playoff spam, just deal thensbl.com/news/html/leagues/league_200_home.html there is no playoff page that I can find in the web links, but you can review the daily scoreboard on the "Scores" link at top. Wild Card Round best of 3. TB 1 vs KC 1 OAK 1 vs TEX 1 SF 1 vs COL 1 ATL 0 vs WSN 2 Washington moves on against the vacant Braves

McClanahan gave up 4 HR in 4ip in game 1 for the L Mahle didn't get out of the 1st in game 2, but my team slugged back 4HR later for an 11-7 shootout. Have to run my #4 starter in the finale, not very confident.
of course I'd have to play the series in Coors field as the leagues 2nd worst HR hitting team.

2nd game of the series I had Cole pitching, and it substituted him for Ranger Suarez. Kind of odd. Still won, but could have been a terrible sim performance. I’ll have to investigate why that happened.

Sorry for the double result email - I forgot to hit the simulate today check. It just ran roster uploads and email the first time. 2nd time was game and email.
wildcard round wins for: TB, TEX, SF & of course WSN.
Division Round: STL v SF AZ v WSN
BAL v TB CWS v TEX
STL & AZ are unowned - our top 2 teams in the NL.

Wow, did not expect a win today. And looking at the boxscore, one can see why. 11-10 with 2 runs in the 8th and 5 in the 9th to pull ahead. Only 1 of those a HR. SF COL final box score

Thanks Jeff for another hard fought season and playoff series. I'm certain it would have been the opposite result without the home field advantage. Thank goodness for Cole Henry's win in Seattle on the last day of the season because only 4 games separated first and fourth in the AL West and I snagged my 6th division title in 13 seasons. Thanks to a strong start from Jon Gray and the pen not allowing a single hit, we got through. It seems like groundhog day playing in the AL. Old foes grinding out the last week of the season to win the division, playing Oakland, now Chicago, then potentially Baltimore or Tampa down the line. Same shit, different year.
Texas is set for round two in Chicago.

I wanted to give a big congratulations to Matt. He's had so much success in the regular season the last several years but never been able to break through in the playoffs. He's had teams that have had more regular season success than the team this year, that didn't make it this far. It really is a crapshoot.
He owed me a Game 7 loss after the 2021 season when I beat him in the ALCS after he was up 3-1 in the series. I thought I was going to be able to get by him again, butnit wasn't meant to be. I'm rooting for you to win it all and bring the title back to the AL after Nate let it go to the NL last season.
