MLB Showdown 2000-2001 Sim League 100 Game Update: All-Star Edition

We are now 100 games into the simmed 2000-2001 MLB Showdown season. If you want a refresher on the league, check out the first few posts in the series:

The link to the full stats and standings after 100 games can be found here. In today's update, in lieu of my normal team-by-team recap, I will post standings, leaders, and then post the All-Star ballot for people to vote on. Scroll to the bottom of the post to see the ballots!




Standings


In the Williams Division, Providence and Ottawa both went 9-11, so the division lead remained at 7. Columbus went 11-9, making up two games on both of them and moving into third. Buffalo fell to 4th with an abysmal 6-14 performance.

In the Musial Division, Indianapolis cut Memphis' lead to two games. Louisville remained four behind. Nashville, who had a very poor first 40 games, went 11-9 and now is tied with Louisville for four games behind. This division is going to be interesting to watch down the road, as all four teams have the chance to win the division or the second wild card spot.

In the Aaron Division, Birmingham and Charlotte both went 11-9. They have been tied during every update so far. Both are 60-40, tied for the top team in the conference, and 12 games ahead of Indianapolis who sits third in the wild card race, so both should expect to make the playoffs. Jacksonville went only 6-14, falling to 16 games out, and league-worst team Orlando went 8-12, now 21 games out and all but eliminated from the division. 



In the Mays division, Anchorage made up five games on Calgary to move into a first place tie. Portland went an incredible 15-5, making up seven games and now sits only one game behind Anchorage and Calgary. All three are currently in playoff position. Vancouver fell into last place, but at only six games back with 62 to play, still stands a chance.

In the Gibson division, top team in the league Las Vegas cruised again, going 15-5 to increase their division lead to 15 games.  Salt Lake City went only 10-10, Boise 11-9, and Sacramento 8-12, to fall 15, 17, and 18 games back, respectively. None of the three have a real shot at the division at this point, but Tucson is only four behind Portland for the second wild card spot.

The Koufax division is another very close division. After 80 games, Albuquerque, Tucson, and Oklahama City were tied for first. They respectively went 11-9, 10-10, and 9-11, so now there is one game of separation between each of them. San Antonio went 10-10, now sitting four out of first.

All-Star Ballots
Time to vote on who makes the All-Star Game! You will voting for 1 position player for each position (Outfielders are general, so just vote 3 outfielders, as in real MLB voting), as well as 5 starters and 5 relievers. The available players for selection with full statlines are listed here, separated by conference and by hitter/pitcher. However, I have included relevant stats in the voting forms below, so no need to see the full stats unless you are curious.
