Suggested Changes for Cuban League (Serie Nacional de Beisbol)- I know its not the cleanest looking post, but I just copied and pasted from word

• League Name - Serie Nacional de Béisbol (Accent over the “e” in Beisbol – I know it’s a little thing, but I think the accents give it a more authentic Cuban feel to the game – I just copy and paste the whole name into the game when editing = less time to change things)

• League abbreviations
o Zona Occidental – OCC
o Zona Oriental – ORI or OTE (Used to be OTE, but seemed to have moved this year to ORI – here’s the link to the box score of this years All-Star game with the abbreviations - http://www.inder.co.cu/indernet/comp...0ESTRELLAS.htm
o The Group names are also lettered instead of numbered. They should Grupo A, Grupo B, Grupo C, and Grupo D instead of Group 1, 2, 3, 4 – Grupo (Spanish for Group) is also the way that they are titled, link: http://www.inder.co.cu/indernet/comp...46/default.htm

• Team Changes – As a suggestion, I would change the order of the City Name/NickNames. Up to you, but when talking about teams on the sites, the City Name is always used instead of the Nickname. It just flows better as well. Not to mention that the name of the city is or team is obviously the City name, and the Nicknames are obviously nicknames (Ex. Province Name - Villa Clara, Nickname - Naranjas, Ciego de Avila Tigres, etc...) Now on to individual team changes. Also, team color codes are taken from their actual logos, so they should be just about dead on.

• Grupo A
o Isla de la Juventud
 Nickname – Toronjeros
 Team Color Code – 445172
 Team Text Color - 50862B
 Ballpark - Estadio Cristóbal Labra (Accent over the o)
o Matanzas

 Team Color Code - 437B72
 Team Text Color - FFF300
 Ballpark - Estadio Victoria de Girón (Accent over the o)
o Metropolitanos

o Fair player salary - $2,150

• Playoff options
o Name of round 1 - Cuartos de Final
o Name of Round 2 – Semifinal
o Name of Round 3 – Final

• League totals (Last 3 year average – may have to play around with these as they are the actual totals from the league, but for some reason do not transfer well within the game)
o At bats – 48824
o Hits – 14027
o Doubles – 2287
o Triples – 360
o Home Runs – 1031
o Bases on Balls – 4946
o Hit by pitches – 1118
o Strikeouts – 7251
o BABIP - .321

• Other thoughts
o I have a minor league setup up for them also if you want it. I can give you 1 level of minors, there are others too with age limits, but haven’t done quite the research on them as of yet. The teams and everything for the one level is all set to go if you want them though.
o Hope this helps you out! I know we are all looking for realism and I hope this helps out the OOTP community!
