X. Standings

A. The following criteria will be used to determine team performance:
(HR) - Total Home Runs
(RBI) - Total Runs Batted In

(OBP) – On Base Percentage
(ERA) - Composite Earned Run Average

(K) - Total Strikeouts

Teams are ranked from first to last in each category.

B. If a team fails to pitch 1200 innings during the course of the season, two (2) men on base will be added per inning to that team's total until its innings pitched equals 1200. Once a team reaches 2000 innings pitched, that team will no longer accrue stats. If a team fails to achieve 5000 at bats, one AB will be added to the team’s total until it reaches 5000. The standings will then be recalculated.

C. Players must remain on your active roster for 10 days. Only if a player is minor leagued or injured can a player be replaced if shorter than 10 days on the active roster. (prevents streaming players and makes it more realistic to real baseball.)
