The NML is a Strat-O-Matic baseball league, entering its 20th season. We expanded to 16 teams in 2006, but we are always looking for new enthusiastic managers willing to face a challenge. This is a salary format league, utilizing contracts, free-agency, protected farm systems, soft salary cap, and bonus point system based on team performance. We also implement a division realignment every year, similar to that of English Premier Football (Soccer). We have a great group of guys that enjoy spirited competition.
Congratulations to Chuck Carline and the 2019
Darwin Cup Champion Northeast Neanderthals!!
Our 19th season is officially in the books, thanks everyone for your contributions as owners and managers in making it another successful season. I hope everyone is looking forward to next season which will be our 20th anniversary. On a side note the 2019 preseason power rankings correctly predicted all 8 playoff teams, In 2018 it correctly predicted 7 of 8 so it is a pretty good barometer of where teams stand before the season starts. Division realignment for 2020 will have Haven and Worcester moving up to the Nietzchean division and San Joaquin Valley and Phoenix moving to the Socratic division.
Click the button below to see this years power ratings plus projected ratings for 2021 based on current real time MLB player stats. The projected ratings will begin on
opening day and change on a daily basis as the players real time stats get updated using the Strat Card Projector. I will try to update the ratings at least once a week.
The 2020 projections should change dramatically as the season progresses so have some fun following your teams progress or lack of progress.
