The Statis-Pro batter and pitcher cards are now all on the same sheet, so you can print all of the players for any of the 30 teams on one sheet of paper from one Google Sheet. The example printouts from the three teams in one pool—Philadelphia, San Diego and Baltimore—are at the bottom of this sheet for our next series. You can play your own Statis-Pro Baseball games for free.
But first, we did one final check for any players on the wrong roster and caught just over 50 players who needed to be moved, and they have been updated. We show all the players we just moved below, rank how big a pickup each player was for the new team, and then rank the 15 teams we believe improved the most and were hurt the most by these moves.
| Team | Improve | | Team | Hurt |
| CLE | 108 | | TEX | -10 |
| PHI | 101 | | BAL | -15 |
| CHC | 89 | | ATH | -30 |
| SDP | 62 | | DET | -34 |
| PIT | 60 | | KCR | -36 |
| TBR | 50 | | HOU | -39 |
| TOR | 46 | | WSN | -39 |
| CHW | 45 | | CIN | -40 |
| BOS | 43 | | ATL | -41 |
| MIN | 37 | | COL | -45 |
| SEA | 37 | | SFG | -49 |
| ARI | 32 | | STL | -61 |
| NYY | 28 | | LAA | -97 |
| LAD | 21 | | MIA | -103 |
| MIL | 10 | | NYM | -130 |
The following are the batters cards we just moved ranked with their new team and the team they came from followed by their ranking. The Line-up showswhere they hit in their new line-up, and if they are coming off the bench the are a "2." For fielding a CD5 is a near gold glove level player while a CD1 is a very poor defender. We also now have the actual homerun range on the batter cards - while the other columns just show the last number in each range on the Random Number card of 11-88.
And below are the pitchers who moved between teams ranked as well. The "Role" number means what order they are in the rotation (21 is ace starter, 22 second bester starting pitcher etc) and then in the bullpen (31 closer, 32 as the 2nd best reliever etc). We also added the complete strikeout ranges for all pitchers, which is key because only numbers lower than that range canbe hits starting with 11 and ended one number below the bottom of the strikeout range (there is one balk number between the hits and strikeouts.
Below are the print of those three teams. The match-up of San Diego and Philadelphia is the toughest set up as they were already good teams and were two of the most improved through these final player changes. If you look at the three printouts below, you will see that we already marked which pitchers were already used in the first game each team played against the Phillies.
The Phillies ace
Cristopher Sanchez (PB 2-9) shut down the Padres for eight innings, so they need to use their No. 4 starter
Aaron Nola (PB 4-7 - average). In both games the Padres used their two top relievers to tied down the wins, so they cannot pitch in the 2nd game against either team.
The Padres also used their ace
Michael King (PB 2-7) but he did not last as long in the 2-1 extra inning loss and they not only used their twop two relievers but three other relievers so do not have as many pitchers to use in the big match-up between the two hot teams.
The Orioles are actually in the best pitching match-up when they play the Phillies. They used
Trevor Rogers (PB 2-6) who is now their No. 4 pitcher, so they get to use their ace
Kyle Bradish in their game against the Phillies, and because the fell behind 4-1 early in that game, they did not use any of their top nine relievers so could have a big edge.
The Phillies were at home in both game 1s, so will play these two on the road. If they win both games then they win the pool with a 4-0 record. If the lose both to finish 2-2, then the other two teams will play twice and if one of them wins both games they would win the divisions with a 3-1 record and if all three teams finished 2-2 then it comes to run differential. If the Phillies split to finish 3-1, then they team that beat them would need to sweep the other team to also finish 3-1 and then it would come to run differential.
The Phillies advance.
The Phillies became the 7th team to win a 3-team pool and advance, leaving only two spots to be filled. Through seven innings of their last game, against Baltimore, the Phillies had outscored their opponents 14-3 in 35 innings of lock down defense and let 3-0.
However, the end was wild as Baltimore's
Carlos Narvaez hit a 3-run homer to tie the game 3-3 i the 8th inning. In the top of the 10th
Bryce Harper hit a 2-run homer to make it 5-3, but
Tyler O'Neill countered with a 2-run homer in the bottom of the 10th to tie it again 5-5. However
Justin Crawford's 2-run double in the top of the 11th started a 4-run rally to advance 9-5.
In the 7-0 win over San Diego batting champ Luiz Arraez went 4 of 4 and
Kyle Schwarber hit a 2-run homer. The Phillies 22-7 run differential is by far the 2nd best of the 27 teams we have played in the game, trailing only the Los Angeles Dodgers who outscored opponents 35-11 for a +24 run differential to be the only other team to go 4-0. All pool play results is
tracked here.
As the winner of Pool H, Philadelphia awaits the winners of the only two remaining pools. Arizona is 2-0 in Pool G and can clinch if they beat Detroit next and Cleveland is also in that divsion. In Pool I, Minnesota is 2-0 so has the edige, but they only won 4-3 and 6-4 so if they lose their last 2 it would be almost impossible to win the tiebreaking run difference over Pittsburgh or Seattle.
