1938 AL Final Standings

October 3, 1938

The Detroit Tigers won my 1938 AL asplayed replay Championship by going 95-59 and finishing 8 games ahead of the 2nd place New York Yankees.  The Tigers over-performed their 'actual record' by 11 games while the Yankees under-performed by 13 games. This 'swing' in performance was more than enough to allow Detroit to fairly easily win the pennant. Both Boston and Cleveland also slightly under-performed during my replay.
While Detroit's pitching was woeful at best, it was their hitting that led the way to a Championship. Their total of 992 runs scored was much more than runner up Boston's 885. The Tigers average game scoring was 6.4 to 5.3. The Yankees pitching was tops in the league by a wide margin but they had the worst W-L record in 1-run games in the league.
Detroit will face the NL Cincinnati Reds in the 1938 World Series.

1938 AL Standings

September 1, 1938

My Detroit Tigers continue to play well above their actual record in 1938 and have a nice lead at the top of the AL. Barring a complete collapse, the Tigers should win the AL pennant. No team has been able to stop their offensive attack, which has allowed their mediocre pitching to put up W's. Their average score thru 122 games is 6.4 to 5.6. New York has floundered this season, while Boston and Cleveland have played somewhat close to their actual records. Those 3 teams did have better records than Detroit in August, allowing them to close the gap a little bit. Despite posting the best pitching stats in the league, the Yankees have faltered offensively, resulting in their poor record (for them).

1938 AL Standings

August 1, 1938

My Detroit Tigers continue to play WAY above their actual record in 1938 and have a 9.5 game lead over 2nd place Washington. Meanwhile, New York, Cleveland, and Boston continue to play well below their actual record in '38. There's still a long way to go in the season but it looks as if Detroit would have to have a major collapse to not win the AL pennant. The Tigers have scored 611 runs, 110 more than the next highest scoring team, the Washington Senators. Their pitching has been mediocre but if you can score an average of 6.64 runs per game, mediocre may be just good enough.

1938 AL Standings

July 1, 1938

The month of June is over and the Detroit Tigers continue to lead the AL. The Tigers have opened up a 7.5 game lead over the 2nd place Washington Senators, going a league best 21-9 in the month of June. My Tigers have over performed their RL(real life) record by 12 games. The Cleveland Indians are the only other team that has differed much from their RL record, and that is just by 8 games. Detroit is 4th in the AL in both team BA and team ERA, but are 1st in Runs Scored. Much if not most of the credit for Detroit's winning record can be attributed to Hank Greenberg. He has put up incredible numbers this season: .323BA, 39HR, 91RBI and a .815 slugging%. He's on a pace for 91HR and 212RBI!! Even if he slows down to his 'normal' pace or lower, I think my Tigers will have a good shot at winning the pennant.

1938 AL Standings

June 15, 1938

The 1938 season is halfway through the month of June and the Detroit Tigers are still in 1st place in the AL. The New York Yankees have gotten on a roll the past month and are now in 2nd place, 2.5 games behind the league leaders. On the opposite end of the spectrum, the Cleveland Indians have been having a tough time of it the past month and are under .500, 9 games behind the Tigers.
Despite retaining the top spot in the AL standings, Detroit has been having issues winning games at home. They have the best road record of any team in the AL and if they could put together a winning record playing in Briggs Stadium, Detroit will be a team to reckon with the entire season.

1938 AL Standings

May 1, 1938

The 1938 MLB season opening month of April has come to a close with the Cleveland Indians on top of the AL. My Detroit Tigers are in 2nd, 1 game behind. Tiger 1st baseman Hank Greenberg has gotten off to a tremendous start by hitting 9 home runs and driving in 16, tops in MLB in both categories. The Indians have been powered by 3rd baseman Ken Keltner and shortstop Lynn Lary. Lary is hitting a league leading .500 while Keltner is at .465 and is tied with Greenberg with 16 rbi. Young pitcher Bob Feller is 3-0 and Mel Harder is 2-0 for the Tribe.

1938 AL Standings

April 25, 1938
My MLB 1938 AL asplayed replay is underway. Tried posting via the SOM Baseball 2013 game but it doesn't show up here even though the game says "Blog posted successfully". I'll have to manually post results, so, unfortunately I won't be giving as much info on the season as usual. Just too time consuming.
Anyway, I'm 1 week into the season. The only thing of note to report right now is the fact that Detroit Tiger Hank Greenberg has hit 6 homeruns in the 1st 6 games. Since Detroit is the team I manage in this replay, and Greenberg hit 58 that season, I'll be reporting often on his progress as he attempts to surpass Babe Ruth's 1927 MLB record of 60. Here is the 1938 AL Standings after 1 week of play.
