APBA BATS 2

Folks, I have been waiting on the Baseball All-Times Season 2 to come from APBA. I have heard that this season will be shipping by the end of this week. I am looking to start a season with BATS2 using the spring training schedule from this year, with some minor adjustments. I just do not know how to have my divisions, leagues or teams divided so I can have a post season. I have come up with a few of ideals.

Five Divisions - Eastcoast, MidEast, Great Lakes, Central and West Coast. Four of the five divisions will have 5 teams and the West Coast will have six teams, LA/Brk Dodgers, SF/NY Giants, Oak/Phi/KC A's, LA/Cal Angels, SD Padres, and SEA Mariners.

Four Divisions - AL/NL with corresponding East/West divisions.

Six Divisions - Flordia and Arizona leagues, with three division in each league.

ARIZONA FLORIDA
CSW SF TEX TOR PIT ATL
CLE CUB KC PHI BOS HOU
CIN OAK SD NYY BAL WAS
LAD LAA SEA DET MIN STL
MIL NYM

I am moving towards the ARI/FLA, grapefruit and cactus leagues, with each division set up due to the games played in spring training.

Other rules and ideas include, split squad games which will allow more games played by players that would not usually play due to bias or ability. After a player would go 0-3 in batting, he will be replaced by substitute. Pitchers will be replaced after three earned runs given up. The staff will include a five man rotation and 6 relievers (CL, SU, SU, LH, RH, MOP). This will allow each starter to get a minimum of 5 starts.

I am looking forward to starting this league as soon as I can.
