NML Home Page

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.

As we move from the dog days of August to the home stretch of September we have close races in both divisions. In the Nietzchean Division, Northeast (86-50) rose to the top spot by a single game over Worcester (85-59) and New Britain (85-59). With a record of 20-7 in August Northeast achieved team of the month honors for the third time this season. Monroe (76-60) and Monongahela (74-62) will be doing battle for the fourth playoff spot. In the Socratic Division three teams are vying for the top spot, San Joaquin (74-62) holds a 2 game lead over Minnesota (72-64) with Phoenix (70-66) just 4 games back. California (65-71) and Hartford (63-73) will hammer it out for the final playoff spot. Don't forget to expand your September rosters with up to 40 players with pitchers limited to 15. Rich has asked for CM's to be in by Friday 9/11 so he can get the game file out and enjoy his mini vacation. Good luck in September and watch your usage, penalties can be severe.
