Congratulations Eric!
The culmination of 8 years' work must taste sweet.
What a playoff run, through what I think to be the toughest postseason field yet. Without wishing to disrespect my fellow AL leaguemates, that NL bracket was an absolute murderer's row at every turn. To come through that - including the extra WC round - and emerge victorious is quite the feat.
Commiserations to Jordan. Three WS appearances in a row is quite the achievement in itself. You are setting the bar in the AL.
Everyone enjoy a few days off, and then we'll be back to it after the conclusion of the real life regular season (go real-life Rangers!).

8 years!!? Seems both longer and shorter at the same time. Lots of missteps and lucky pickups over those years, but I’m happy that the effort finally paid off.
What a playoff season it was. If I would’ve caught Brewers on any other week, they beat me, but that’s baseball. Rockies and Cards are building monsters of their own, and Jordan’s team proved a tough match. MHII, JRam, Freeman, Semien, O’Hearn, Strider, and Fried all performed to their abilities, which is the only way I’m making this run. Good luck to all over the offseason.
Now that half my team is hitting FA, it might be time for another rebuild. See y’all after the IRL World Series.

Congratulations Eric! Well done. Is anyone else terrified by the fact that the Braves mauled their way through the season while their GM was literally lost in the wilderness for 40% of the season?!? I can't fathom what they can accomplish if the GM really throws his back into it  |

I can't fathom what they can accomplish if the GM really throws his back into it I mentioned something similar to Eric recently. I believe he is already planning next year's trek from Mexico to Canada, via the Rockies... |

I can't fathom what they can accomplish if the GM really throws his back into it Dan, I think I take the opposite lesson--Eric has been a determined, active owner all these years, and as soon as he's away and unable to spend so much time tinkering/meddling the team wins it all. Eric, I kid, I kid. But congrats, great season and great post-season, well-earned win. And congrats to the Royals as well--quite a feat to be there 3 years running (hopefully there won't be a 4peat... ) |
