It's been three years since I've updated the all-time MMDA manager register.
When I got back into this Blogger user interface, I was immediately reminded why. It's impossible to work with HTML tables in this program. So I created a cool looking table in Excel and pasted a screen grab here.
Active MMDA Managers Ranked By Winning Percentage
The 162-game rate section captures what MMDA standings would look like if the all-time data was telescoped to a single season.
I incorporated all manager data to which I have access. It dates back to 1995 in several cases, though my understanding is that several MMDA managers' tenures predate that season.
I also spent some time updating team batting, pitching and fielding statistics and applying ballpark adjustments to them. This data is comprehensive only from 2002 to 2023, though I lack park factors for 2002 and 2003.
Here I will present some top 10 rankings that include team achievement in 2021, 2022 or 2023.

Other notable stuff (since 2002)
• Murrieta set the record for team isolated slugging with a .269 mark in 2022. Wilmington ranks third all time with a .251 mark in 2021 and Rochester fourth at .244 in 2022.
• The 2022 Murrieta Mustangs also own the league record with 748 extra-base hits and a SLG+ at 125. The latter is team slugging compared with league slugging. It is not park adjusted, though my numbers have Murrieta with a 129 park factor in 2022.
• In 2023 both Goldenrod and Mohawk Valley recorded hits at a rate 13% higher than league average to rank fourth and fifth since 2002. This AVG+ score is not park adjusted.
• In 2021, Wilmington compiled a .408 secondary average, which is a league record. Secondary average essentially measures batter productivity when not hitting singles.
• Spokane set the top two marks for pitcher strikeout rate with 29.1% in 2021 and 27.6% in 2022. Owing to the rising tide that is strikeout rate, those rates compared with league rates are fifth and 10th best since 2002. The top SO+ for pitching is 2009 Northeast at 133.
• The 2021 Crows also set the league standard with a 20.8 K-BB%.
• Mohawk Valley this season set a league record for lowest walk rate (6.2%) and WHIP (1.033). Because walk rate is more or less stable over time, the BB+ of 120 is a league record. Hit rates are lower today, so the Lions' WHIP+ is fifth best in the sample.
