Easier to read print and play Statis-Pro team with updated 40-man rosters

 All Statis-Pro sheets are now organized batters, fielders then pitchers for each team. Click here for the Statis-Pro cards for all 30 teams then print any two teams and follow instructions in the free Statis-Pro baseball game. If a players has an "add HR" or "minus HR" you only adjust the Home Run Range, then the next three numbers from that are the DEEP numbers and the next number is the new beginning of the strikeout range. Do not change the end of the strikeout range.

Devers Trade to Giants Biggest Deal Yet - List of All Cards Traded and All-Pitching Rotations Below

The updated pitchers and batters cards include a brand new move as Rafael Devers was traded to San Francisco as we were setting up their 2-game series against the Cincinnati Reds. We do track game results in our 10-team NL and that is the result table further down. 

Rafael Devers went from the Red Sox to Giants and is the best player traded to date- ranked 39th in WAR. However, three other players are in the top 200 - Matt Thaiss moved from the White Sox to Rays, and Adrian Houser went from the Rangers to the White Sox.

The average runs per game in actual MLB games this season is 4.3, but in our Statis-Pro games is 3.7. this is normal since we only use a 4-man rotation, so teams don't get to hit against the 5th and 6th best starter. We also allow the relievers to pitch once in every two game series, which would be like a pitcher in MLB pitching 81 games in an 162 game season, so it is mainly the best relievers as well as the best starters on the opposing team - holding overall runs about half a run lower per game then if all pitchers were used.

We also added standard cards for the two most famous Dodgers - Kershaw who is back pitching again and Ohtani who will take the mound today.

All-Time Power Rankings for All 80 Teams in Statis-Pro Game

After just listing our rankings of the 64 great all-time women’s teams in our Value Add Basketball Game we thought we do an early season power rankings of our all-time great Statis-Pro baseball teams.

Click here for links to the 60 all-time great Statis-Pro baseball teams.

 This will set up a top 20 all-time matchup between the highest ranked team in our game that has yet to play – the 1929 Philadelphia A’s, against our 18th ranked 1984 Detroit Tigers who started the season an incredible 35-5. With that as the next game, here are our power ratings.

No team has played more than two games and some have yet to play, so we moving teams up or down based on just that is pretty superficial, but that’s the fun of playing simulated games. However, the original Power ranking listed second is likely the more accurate until we play more games over time.

 The one thing we pride ourselves in both games is how we calibrate the difference between eras to put all teams basically on equal footing. The adjustment of drives by many live ball era sluggers having home runs turn into deep flyouts when playing in the dead ball era, while stars from the dead ball era see some of their old deep drives get over the fences when playing in a live ball year is similar to the adjusted “Lay-up” and “Dunk” ranges in Value Add Basketball that give teams before and after the 3-point line a chance to play on even footing. 

If a player is already ranked by ESPN as one of the top 100 players in history, then we list their rnaking as well as our team ranking.

1. (Original Power = 18) - Detroit Tigers 1984 Chet LemonWillie HernandezKirk Gibson - Sure they will come back to earth, but a 2-game sweep against the great 1929 Philadelphia A's team that culminated with a 16-0 win with a ridiculous 24 hits makes us put them all the way to first for the moment.

2. (Original Power = 2) - New York Yankees 1998 28. Derek Jeter, 31. Mariano Rivera Win over the Strawberry and Gooden Mets puts these Yankees 1st all-time for now 

4. (Original Power = 8) - St Louis Cardinals 1942 10. Stan Musial, Mort Cooper great win against one of the other 2 Super Midwest teams, the 1929 Cubs, pushes them info 2nd all-time for the moment with two of the three big Yankees teams all suffering surprise losses. 

5. (Original Power = 1) - New York Yankees 1939 16. Joe DiMaggio, Marius Russo lost to NYM 1969 4-5, then won 4-3 

5. (Original Power = 4) - Chicago Cubs 1907 Frank Chance, Carl Lundgren the early Cubs teams of Evers to Tinker to Chance keeps them ranked 4th all-time in our game showing dead ball era teams can win with 10 of 10 steals and a 12-6 win and a ballpark that keeps the live ball eras hitters in the park. 

6. (Original Power = 3) - New York Yankees 1927 1. Babe Ruth & 6. Lou Gehrig get stunned by Jackie Robinson’s Brooklyn 1955 - 2-3 and then running out of pitchers in a 9-19 loss– after being our all-time champion the one other time we played an all-time season 20 years ago.

What If 83-79 Cubs Edged 84-78 DBacks? Statis-Pro Playoffs Rosters

 The Chicago Cubs faced the misfortunate of closing the season at Atlanta and Milwaukee, losing the first four of those games by a total of five runs and ultimately losing the last playoff spot to the Arizona Diamondbacks by just one game with a 83-79 record.

The lack of any home field advantage in baseball playoffs was proven once again as both the ALCS and NLCS featured a road win in Game 7 - meaning the visiting team still has an all-time edge in baseball Game 7s while the home teams in other sports dominate.

How close were the Cubs to returning to the World Series?

With wildcards seeming to dominate in the new playoff format against the top teams with wins, the Cubs may have been very close. Once again the dominant teams - the 100-win Braves and Dodgers - were cast aside and the Diamondbacks that barely caught the Cubs are now representing the NL in the real World Series starting tonight.  Arizona has the worst record ever to make the World Series except for the 1973 New York Mets (lost World Series) and the 2006 St. Louis Cardinals (won World Series).

In Statis-Pro it was the reverse, The Cubs grabbed a Wild Card spot and it was the Diamondbacks who fell one game short.

The Astros have already won our Statis-Pro AL World Series. The Phillies have won our first NL Wild Card series over the Brewers to move on and face the Braves. Now the Cubs play their 3-game Wild Card against our other non-real season team to make the Statis-Pro playoffs, the San Francisco Giants.

We went through the Statis-Pro cards and only kept the cards of players who were on the current MLB depth chart and NOT on the 60-day DL. This eliminated Roberto Perez. But other players who were just on the 10- or 15-day DL are kept in our game and have the note "allow" by their name below.

These are our Statis-Pro rosters for this wild card series, and the winner will get the Dodgers.

A blow the the Cubs is that even though we do select upgrades for the most improved batters and pitchers, we only adjust by one PB - so Justin Steele can only be upgraded from his project PB 4-7 card to a PB 2-7 - but not nearly as good as the PB 2-8 or 2-9 he will get next year based on this year's dominate season. Also we started out the Mark Leiter starting in Statis-Pro this season since he had started some games last year, but he stayed in the pen all year so will be the closer instead of pitching several innings a game.

If we did not have a card for the player yet, then we list the OPS and ERA on which their card is based. However, if they had fewer than 100 plate appearances or 15 games pitched then they get a below average card at best.

The only new/temporary cards of value for these playoffs are two good relievers for the Giants in a PB 2-8 Luke Jackson and a 2-7 Ryan Walker. For the Cubs, Mike Tauchman in centerfield has a slightly above average .739 OPS and gives a lefty bat with B/C speed, and reliver Jose Cuas is a PB 2-7 reliever with a 3.99 ERA over 72 games. The temporary cards can be found at the end of the 2023 pitchers and batters projected cards in the links below.

Reds Phenom De La Cruz Statis-Pro Card Debut in stunning beat down of Giants

The story of recent weeks, Elly De La Cruz of the Reds, debuts in our Statis-Pro game. So far he is destroying right-handed pitching and struggling against left-handed pitching, thus the 14/86 indicates in the first game against the Giants RHP Logan Webb he converts 86-88 into singles with runners advancing two bases. in the second game against LHP Sean Manaea an 11-14 is converted to a strikeout.

Compared to the vet on the team, Joey Votto, he does strike out a ton (38-66) and does not walk much (67-68) but other than that you couldn't get much better than him on speed (A/A), fielding (next to best CD4 at both shortstop and third base) and as a switch hit power hitter (SP) he gets a hit or at least a deep drive that usually goes out in hitter friendly Cincinnati on 11-37. In Cincinnati an 11-63 is a homer on a deep drive, but for the second game in San Francisco only a 11-33 will go out. 


Results follow below.

As exciting as using De La Cruz's cards was, and fun as it was to have him go 4 of 10 with a homer in his first 2-game series, there was no way to anticipate the absolute beat down they would give the Giants in his first two game series. As we show on our game tracker, the Reds were 7-23 in our season, before a 6 game to 0 sweep of the Phillies and now this 5 game to 1 win over the Giants to improve to 18-24 in our league. The 7-1 win in the opener counted as a 3 games to 0 sweep due to leading by more than 5 runs after 8 innings, however the 10-3 win did not because they needed to score four runs in the ninth so only led 6-3 after 8 innings.

The Giants meanwhile dropped from 8-4 and a tie in first place to 9-9 and tied for 4th place with the Mets, who coincidentally are their next series on the grid.


Here is the tracker schedule for the Reds. I do have typo on their last game - they won it 7-1 not 7-0 so will fix.


And here it is for the Giants.
