RESULTS
-------
Missing results:
Week 26 SFP at CAN
Week 26 SCS at SFP
Week 26 SNH at SKY

No boxscores are missing, which is great!  Please get those week 26 results
in.

Remember to be careful with usage, as some players are running out of games,
starts at a position, and plate appearances.


PLAYOFF RACE
------------
Congratulations to the teams that have clinched playoff spots!

The Motor City Marauders have won the AC West. In the NC, the
San Diego Quakes, New York Knights, and Seattle Rainiers have all
clinched their divisions.

The AC East and Central are still up for grabs.  The South Florida
Flamingos hold a two game lead over the New Jersey Riptide in the East
and the Occidental Millers have a three game cushion over Bowling Green in
the AC Central.  The Central runner up will be the top AC Wild Card team,
while Monrovia's magic number to claim the second Wild Card is only one.

In the NC Wild Card race, the Gettysburg Generals have clinched the top
spot,
while Sparkle City leads Southern New Hampshire by three games in the race
for the last playoff spot.


2021 SEASON
-----------
I am preparing a ballot which I will send out soon after the end of the
regular
season.

It will review the changes that we will make to the rules for the 2021
season
to compensate for the shortened MLB season, and have several proposals for
you to
vote on regarding playoff structure and optional rule changes.

Sean and I are working on determining the PA/IP cutoffs which will be used
to
determine which players will have cards.  Our goal is to have a similar
sized card
set to a normal season, with enough depth at all positions and a free agent
pool
that can be both useful for teams that need injury replacements and
beneficial to
rebuilding teams that are trying to pick up some future value.
