in fact that's a good question re; the entire playoffs- if its the same as the hoops league then BO manually sets the schedule once we hit the last five weeks of the mlb season, where we have a 1 week WC round followed by four weeks of semifinal/final matchups, again, with the divisions being meaningless, and the top two w/l records being the 1/2 seeds.

is this league the same as the fantasy hoops league, ie do the top two records overall get the 1/2 seeds and the byes, or do the division winners each get a bye? 

separately, we are in a little trouble here.

right now the league is setup for only 4 playoff teams and only 2 rounds of playoffs (each 2 weeks). 

the way it's been previously (i think) is that the division winners get the byes, and the next 4 best records get seeds 3-6.  someone should be able to check the history and see if that's what we've done.  my memory is that the first round is one week and the next two are 2 weeks.  that cannot happen with the current scheduling.

looks like we have 2 options:

(1) scratch week 20, make that week when the playoffs start

(2) keep week 20, but have the first two rounds be only one week, and then the finals be 2.5 weeks, because the stupid season ends on like a wednesday

You’re in last place with no hope for the playoffs. Why are you even trading players in the first place? Let alone to the first place team. Doesn’t make any sense but thems the breaks I guess. Eloy had suppressed value to being hurt for a third of the season.

Week 20 is the first round. I forgot to make everyone have bye weeks. Our regular season ends week 19. So week 20 is the wild card 1-week playoff. Winners of Week 20 will face the division winners in the normal playoff schedule. But yes, it stupidly ends on a Wednesday so the championship will be 2.5 weeks. Odd. 

I've made the changes on the schedule.

Because i can still win games and mess with the standings. Eloy has been hurt. Julio has been hurt. Mark is....well Mark. 

Just because im in last doesn't mean i have to roll over and die the rest of the season. 

I'm all for changing our rules to do a trade deadline but thats always been met with no votes.

they matter for division winners. they get the byes. 

im definitely going to propose ghat we change that rule next year. in our hoops league the divisions meant nothing so we scrapped them, and just award the byes to the top two overall records. my division is much tougher than the other one and im ~.45 points ahead of the other division winner and yet he'll get a bye while i play a one week playoff where this long ass season could just be over for me with no reward for having the second best record in a 14 team league. we gotta change that.

well of course people want to change the rules when it affects them. 

divisions used to be more meaningful because the previous top two teams got to draft their own divisions. if we want to do away with that, im fine with it.

Final two weeks of the season. 

IF the playoffs started today (assuming my math is right with the current scoreboard):

Division Winners (BYE):
#1 seed - HG
#2 seed - NOMAAA

Wild card week (Week 20):
#3 seed - Derka
vs
#6 seed - Phil

AND

#4 seed - Capn
vs
#5 seed - Castonlon
