Therefore in the game Clayton Kershaw is 7-1 with a 2.05 ERA, while he has been injured almost all of the actual MLB season and is thus 2-2 with a 2.05 ERA. Yoshinobu Yamamoto has the 4th best Batting Average allowed at 0.211 and in MLB he started 6-2 with a 2.92 ERA but is on the 60-day DL, which would have disqualified him in our past Statis-Pro season.
As for Dodgers’ batters, Max Muncy has played only 54 games and Mookie Betts 95 games in actual MLB, while In full Statis-Pro seasons, Betts is 1st in homers with 18 and 122 Total Based; 2nd with a 1.048 OPS, 0.670 Slugging and 41 RBIs; and 4th with 43 runs scored . Max Muncy is tied for 3rd with 14 homers and 40 RBIs.Betts injury cost him the chance to battle his teammate Shohei Ohtani for the MVP, but he is back now and we will see if the Dodgers look as good in an actual MLB playoff run as in our “What if” Statis-Pro season.
Outside of the Dodgers, parity reigns, as it has in actual MLB play when no other team appears to have a chance at 100 wins. Still a lot to be determined in the wild card seeding, but here is the Statis-Pro playoffs if the season ended today - with the NL teams on the top half and then the Milwaukee-AL teams on the bottom half (note the Milwaukee league claimed the Mets and Cardinals when the Montana league relegated them).
The Phillies have gotten hot at the right time ripping off eight straight wins. The Padres have also peaked late, winning 9 of 11. Meanwhile the Reds have lost 4-straight and are close to slipping out of the playoffs.
The Dodgers and Braves lead in most offensive categories. (including run differential)
While the Padres pitching has helped compensate for their anemic offense. (2nd in team ERA, 2nd in team WHIP)
It remains a mystery as to how the Brewers keep winning despite being in the bottom half of most pitching/hitting stats. (they do lead the league in two-out RBIs and the state that has become so much more important since the bases were moved closer together last year - stolen bases).
Ohtani is the MVP favorite right now. He ranks in the top 5 of nine different offensive categories. (avg, HR, RBI, Slugging pct, OPS, 2B’s, Avg RISP, 2-out RBI’s, total bases)
Spencer Strider is leading the Cy Young race but is getting challenged.
He is 9-2, 2.15 ERA, 0.89 WHIP, 125 K/75 IP, .186 BAA
The overall standings that led to the playoff seedings below with Arizona and Chicago still in the hunt to catch the Reds for the last wild card and Milwaukee still with a chance to steal the bye if they can catch the Braves for the NL “East” title.

While the Montana league picks 10 teams and consolidates them into a “East” and “West,” our Milwaukee league this year went with four “pods” of 3-teams each - East, West and South - and then picked three late surprise teams for a fourth pod that could only compete for the remaining 3 wild card spots. Thus Baltimore has the 1-seed as the East Champ, Houston the 2-seed as the South Champ and Seattle does not get a bye as the 3-seed as the West Champ.
The Montana league keeps much more detailed stats than the Milwaukee league, resulting in this incredible leaders list.
