What each club page covers
Each club page runs, from top to bottom: the current standing and record; the ladder of pennant, Climax Series, Japan Series and championship odds; Elo strength with momentum and the club's best and worst years; the season trajectory with the last 10 games; the years the club won its league; and basic facts such as the home ballpark. Every figure is computed with the same model and data as the dedicated league-wide pages - only rearranged from the club's point of view.
Frequently asked questions
How are the odds on the club pages computed?
The remaining schedule - carried on through the Climax Series and the Japan Series - is simulated repeatedly, and each figure is the share of runs that reached the milestone in question (first place, top three, the Japan Series, the championship). The model is identical to the league-wide odds pages, and the numbers are estimates that move with the season, not definitive calls.
As of when are the standings and odds?
They reflect the 'data as of' date shown at the top of each page. Standings and records follow the official tables, while the odds and Elo strength are this site's estimates computed from the data available on that date.
Which years do the pennant tallies cover?
They cover the recent seasons stated explicitly in each page's heading, tallied from each season's final standings - a shorter span than the full pennant race archive, where earlier years can be traced. Only titles belonging to the lineage of today's twelve clubs, predecessors included, are counted.
