In April, I decided to attempt to change Red Sox history by replaying all the seasons that, during my lifetime, really disappointed me. These seasons, I truely believed, the Red Sox could have won the World Series, but instead they lost. I decided to use different PC programs in an attempt to figure out which programs I liked the best. The seasons and the programs I used were: 1967-OOTP, 1972-Digital Diamond, 1975-Action PC, 1977-Diamond Mind, 1978-PC Replay, 1986-Action PC, 1999-OOTP, 2003-Dynasty League, 2008-PC Replay and 2021-Strat-o-matic PC.
WHICH PROGRAMS DO I LIKE THE BEST?
My Ranking: 1- ACTION PC BASEBALL, 2- OOTP23 BASEBALL, 3- PC REPLAY BASEBALL, 4- STRAT-O-MATIC PC BASEBALL, 5- DIAMOND MIND BASEBALL, 6-DYNASTY LEAGUE BASEBALL. 7- DIGITAL DIAMOND BASEBALL

CONCLUSIONS SO FAR
With the exception of 1986 and 2021, I believe the Red Sox still have a shot at changing history. This project has taken a lot of time. Since April, I have managed between 3 and 5 games a day and auto-played the rest. This has been a fun project and I will post another update with two weeks to go in the seasons.
