Capra Hardball Dynasty League

The All-Time North Stars List The All-Time Capra List (post-steroids after season 10) The All-Time Capra List (including steroids)

Most Career Homers. Only Season 11 and on qualify...

Top Home Run hitting seasons since Season 15. Yes, I did this for Rocky Musial. Go Spiders!

The steroid era resulted in inflated hitting stats in the early years of Capra. Here's a count of 50-homer seasons per five-year interval: For all future parts of this post series, I'll use Season 15 as the "end of the steroid era" for per-season lists. For career lists I'll only count seasons starting with after Season 10.

Hello all. Two podcasts so soon? Maybe I was never the host you deserved. Khendrickson and Kbradley are back for season 55 predictions. They recorded a few days ago, I'm lazy and uploaded late. Enjoy. Click on the link "read more," to open the full post and view the audio player.

Provided by bigtuna5 and bbartel American League Predictions 16. Austin-Zmeisel is doing a nice job giving this franchise some direction but this was always a multi-year rebuild. 15. Sioux Falls-Cricket did a nice job setting up this franchise for the future and the lineup is pretty solid but the pitchers are still in the minors. 14. Cleveland- dcbove is in the process and building a monster again but most of the prospects will stay in the minors this year. 13. Burlington-On to the rebuilding teams. Burlington takes a jump forward with veterans like the signing of Matos and trade for Flier while the prospects continue to come up 12. Huntington-Formerly Columbus team which pitching staff will show up this year. The season 46 staff that led them to the division title or season 47 with almost the same staff that gave up 200 runs more. Moving to hitters park in Huntington makes me vote for 47 but could go either way. 11. Chicago-Transitioning team that felt the loss of Zumaya las...

Hall of Fame Career Standards Test These are metrics designed by Bill James to measure how likely a player is to get into the HOF, and not necessarily how good they were.  This test gives a score of 50 for an average Hall of Famer, with  100 as the max. It is used to measure the overall quality of a player's career.   The metric uses a one-point addition scale based on career cumulative and rate stats.  The all-time leader in batting points is Babe Ruth at 78 and  Christy Mathewson leads in pitching points at 84. Batting Statistics One point for each 150 hits above 1500, limit 10. One point for each .005 of batting average above .275, limit 9 One point for batting over .300 One point for each 100 runs over 900, limit 8. One point for scoring more than .500 runs per game. One point for scoring more than .644 runs per game. One point for each 100 rbi's over 800, limit 8. One point for driving in more than .500 runs per game. One ...

It’s been a fun season watching a young star take his first swings in the majors.   Before injuring himself a few game-weeks ago, Leyson Molina was batting .285 with 16 home runs and 42 RBI in 78 games.   But, his bat was slow in arriving from AAA.   While I was waiting for him to go on the tear that brought his average up 80 points, I was really interested in his defense.   What’s he going to be like at the big league level?   Is he average?   Is his 90 range going to get him a Gold Glove some day when he’s done maturing?   For the first time in a long time, I found myself reading box scores and paying close attention to his defense particularly.   I've never been one to comb the box scores for fielding excellence, but Molina changed that.   When he wasn't hitting I started to notice his fielding too, and he started his career ignominiously with that rare .000 fielding game at short: no putouts, no assists, no errors on zero chances. ...

Ballpark effects are ranked on a scale from - 4 to + 4, based on their impact on hits (1B), doubles (2B), triples (3B), home runs to left field (HR LF) and home runs to right field (HR RF). The more negative or positive number, the more extreme the effect for that hit in that direction. These numbers are just indicators of the relative effect in the simulation engine. They are important for users and founded entirely on historical fact, but are meant for display purposes and not explicitly used in the simulation engine.
