Best Division in the history of FCM?
#9
The NL Central also has had some of the worst teams in FCM history. The Cubs picked in the top ten for several years, St. Louis, Pittsburgh, Milwaukee, and Cincinatti have all also been in that boat. For most of the history of FCM there have been two good teams in the NL Central and as many as four awful teams.

I look at it like real life - would anyone really argue that over the last decade or so that the NL West has been one of baseball's best? Because by the same criteria - only the AL East in real life has been better than the NL West and that isn't even by much. Colorado, San Diego, Arizona, San Fran, and LAD all have had success in the last decade in real life, but I look at the whole group as a bunch of mediocre hacks who have benefited from a weak division. So it clouds the "ultimate success" stats in their favor over the NL East, AL West, or NL Central.

Our NL Central success stories have been legit, but it's just a real life example of how you can twist numbers to make things look better than they have been.
