DMB-Blog — Projection Database

2016 Postseason Teams database is now available!

 

The 2016 Postseason Teams database includes all of the rosters, stats, ratings, manager profiles, park factors and other details that you need to play along with the 2016 MLB Playoffs. This release completes the trio of 2016 ZiPS Projection Database editions.

For this release, all players have been updated with their actual regular season stats (as of the end of play on Friday, September 30, 2016) and the player ratings have been carried over from the mid-season update of the projection database. In most cases, the 25-man rosters are our best guess since most teams had not announced their playoff rosters at the time of release. (Updated rosters are available in this community forum topic.)

Teams included in this database are the 2016 editions of the Baltimore Orioles, Boston Red Sox, Cleveland Indians, Texas Rangers, Toronto Blue Jays, Chicago Cubs, New York Mets, Los Angeles Dodgers, San Francisco Giants, and Washington Nationals. Here's your chance to manage all these teams in postseason play to determine the 2016 World Series Champion!

Remember to check your spam/junk folder, but if you do not receive the update email, contact us at dmb_info@imaginesports.com.

The 2016 Postseason Teams set can also be purchased separately for $9.95.


Note: Two new ballpark image files have been added for the 2016 season, Rogers Centre (new full dirt infield) and Marlins Park (new outfield dimensions). These image files are available for free download from our Park Images page.

ZIPS-2016 Projection Season Database Now Available

 

 

 

The ZIPS databases include projected team rosters; the 2016 schedule; projected statistics and ratings for over 2000 players generated using Dan Szymborski's ZiPS (sZymborski Projection System) projection system, including many top prospects; and manager profiles set up with rotations, lineups, and depth charts representing our assessment of how the players might be used during the 2016 season.

With the 2016 download, we will be making the product dynamic – we will update the player projections around the All-Star Break to reflect performance in the season to that point and projected through the remainder of the season.  At the end of the season, we update them again for the playoff teams.  If you purchase the DMB 2016 Projection database, you will receive these updates free of charge as soon as the updates are ready.

You can purchase the DMB 2016 Projection database in the online store for $29.95, which includes the initial Projection database plus the two free updates (mid-season and for the playoffs).

Available in V11 format only.
