2018 Playoffs

[Former Twins GM (Robin)]

Getting to the World Series


Each year, 12 teams will make the playoffs. Each division winner will be in, along with 3 wildcards from both the American and National League (best records after division winners). The fantasy season will end about 4 weeks before the MLB regular season does. The top 6 teams in each league will make the playoffs with the #1 and #2 seeds in each league receiving a first round bye. If either of the top seeds are tied, the tie-breaker will go to the best H2H record vs. each other. The tie-breaker to make the playoffs will be determined by head to head record. The second tie-breaker will be determined by conference record, and the third tie-breaker is your cumulative season total of pitching wins. The first tie-breaker in a playoff game is the same as the regular season tie-breaker. The second tie-breaker, if there is still a tie then the higher seed will advance. The AL Champion will play the NL Champion in the World Series, and the winner will claim Champions of the League!
