PLAYOFFS
--------
All results are in save for these three series.  Please get them done soon!
The AC Wild Card series can't start until the WMS at OXY series is complete,
and the
NYK at SFP series will determine who is the lowest seeded NC division winner.

Missing:
Week 25 WMS at OXY
Week 25 SFP at SCS
Week 25 NYK at SFP

All playoff spots have been determined.

The Occidental Millers will face the Philadelphia Phantasm in the AC Wild
Card series,
with the host team dependent on the WMS at OXY results.  In the NC, the San
Diego Quakes
will host the Seaside Rainiers.  The Wild Card Series is a five-game series
with the
host team at home in games one, two, and five.

The top seeds in each conference are the Motor City Marauders and Salt Lake
Gulls.
They will get to choose whether to play the Wild Card series winner or the
lowest
seeded division winner in the Division Series.

The other division winners are:
New Jersey Riptide
Williamstown Thunder
New York Knights
Gettysburg Generals

Congratulations to all playoff teams!


PLAYOFF ROSTERS
---------------
Some teams have not sent a playoff roster (or at least, I can't find them).
I'm missing rosters for OXY, MCM, SDQ, and SEA.  Please send them in and
make sure
you have a legal playoff starter against RH and LH at every position.

Playoff rosters are posted here:

2023 DRAFT
----------
Brent has once again volunteered to administer the draft lottery.  It will
take place
later this month.  Thanks, Brent!

The draft tiers will be:

Tier 0:  BAL, CAN, EVE, KAT, ODM, POR, RRG, SFP, SNH
Tier 1:  MAD, SCS, SFL, SKY
Tier 2:  BOW, GTY, MCM, NJR, NYK, OXY, PHI, SLG, WMS
Tier 3:  SDQ, SEA

Remember, teams that lost in the expanded Wild Card round in 2021 are not
considered
playoff teams for the purposes of draft tier position.


NO-HITTERS
----------
In the final week of the season, Portland's Michael Kopech dominated
Everett with a
no-hitter in game 1 at Everett, striking out 14 in the 2-0 victory.
Remarkably, he
pitched over half the game fatigued, having reached his BF limit with one
out in the fifth.

The Grays were on the other end of a no-hitter thrown in week 22, as Tyler
Mahle
shut down Philadelphia on no hits and one walk with eight strikeouts in a
7-0 win.
