Since I'm a lifetime Yankees fan and Mary cheers for the Cubs we seem to be approaching a real bloodletting here. So, the heck with this year, how about those 1938 International League Red Wings? D.B.Schmidt continues to improve his free, stat based SBS and by now aficionados have created files for, I think, every 20th and 21st century major league team and some 19th century ones as well! So now minor leagues are appearing. Want to replay the 1938 IL season? Mischa Gelman has made it possible.

Great stuff. Strategic Baseball Simulator
