6/11/11: Standings Adjustments

[Brian R (Rangers)]

As some of you may know, when the prior Commish deleted the rosters of the Red Sox and Padres on CBS, it reset their record to 0-8 and took away prior wins. I do not think the old Commish knew that would happen, and given that those teams are now active again, I need to try and determine what the records were.

I am going back through League Comments to determine if I can find out whether the Red Sox and Padres won in those first 8 weeks. Since Justin is still with us, he has provided me with a list of which weeks he believes he won. I am going to be sending PMs to the GMs of the teams he says he beat to see if they agree. Please be honest.

If I find proof of who won, I am going to post it and adjust the standings in posts to follow

I believe the Red Sox won the first 2 weeks before the new owner who came in traded everyone away for top Minor Leaguers. That would put them at 2-7.

According to the Padres, he won the following weeks:
Wk 1 vs. Dbacks
Wk 3 vs. Dodgers
Wk 5 vs. Pirates
Wk 6 vs. Reds
Wk 8 vs. Nationals

Yankees vs Rays

I dont know how the Yankees lost to the Red Sox....at all. So I might never pick them again. Rays bounces back this week with a win, after a tough loss to the Jays.

Multiple owners have confirmed my memory that the Red Sox had started 2-0 even with mainly a minor league squad, which means they beat the Orioles in Week 2 (Orioles GM no longer in league to confirm)

If anyone has serious objections and remembers differently, let me know

Red Sox now 2-7
Orioles 4-5

I have adjusted week 5 to show a win for the Padres over the Pirates. Since the Pirates GM is no longer with us and I have no way of knowing, I will side with Justin on this one because he listed that week as having been a win. Given the Pirates roster back then, I tend to think he would be right.

Padres now 2-7
Pirates now 1-8

Mac and the Dbacks have confirmed that the Padres beat the Dbacks in week 1

Padres now 3-6
Dbacks now 1-8

Thanks to Mac and Justin

Weeks 6 and 8 are not wins for the Padres because they had no roster loaded for those 2 weeks - there's no way to know who would have won or what your teams' stats would have been.

Week 3 is unconfirmed.

Standings are now completely fixed and will not be changed again. Thanks for you help everyone in getting this straightened out. Now we move forward
