Here's one I'd be interested in. What franchise with the biggest market size has the least playoff appearances? And which franchise with the smallest market size has the most playoff appearances? Any dynasties among these teams, and what years? Why did these teams win or underachieve?

I would like to see your results. I am not so much interested in individual stats but more of how the overall stats compare to the real major league stats. How did they seem to you, overall? Sure, go ahead and put the stats here, or at least some of them. I am sure others would be interested as well.

Those stats look very believable to me...all except the one about the Red Sox winning 11 world series. Of course IMO they should have won that many as they had some great teams in the late forties and fifties. Personally, I think the reason they didn't in real life is because they had lousy managers and management. Just my own opinion. But yeah, I agree with your frown about the Yankees, but hey, when you can afford and can get any player in the league, they actually should have more World Series trophies than the number you posted.
Anyway, interesting stats. Thanks for posting them.
