Crown the winner, 2023 Champ - Detroit

[Detroit]

I’m really glad someone was able to dethrone NYY. That repeat garbage was getting old! Seriously though, I can’t believe that nobody was on the boards today congratulating me. WTH? 🤦‍♂️

You’re welcome!

[Detroit]

I’m all seriousness, I’m still a little shocked I was able to pull this out. Lots of teams jockied back n forth all season. At the halfway point, we had 6-7 teams that were well within reach of 1st place. There is some parity here again in Cashman’s, and I don’t think that’s gonna change much over the next few years.

Baltimore is my pick for most improved team.

Milwaukee gets the award for trade of the season for acquiring Acuna. By far the #1 fantasy baseball player. People get giddy talking Ohtani or Trout, but did you see what Acuna did in 2023? I know you gave up a lot to get him, but you were right there after you got him. Minny wrote me and asked, “You Scared”?

NYY gets my consistency award for 2023. Slow and steady wins almost all the time. Your results have been historic, but you can’t win them all. Nice fight tho!

Boston and Chicago share the award for most underachieving teams of 2023.

San Diego wins the award for most injured players on any team. Yikes!

Old, old Pittsburgh gets the award for best cameo appearance in 2023.

Minny gets the most valuable player award for all of his sheet edits and time donations throughout the season. This league works because of you and Milwaukee, and I appreciate you both a lot.

I’ll let this all sink in for a few days before I get moving towards repeating.

I congratulated you in the chat las night!!

[Detroit]

I see that. Several of you did. I’m just having a little fun. Never won this league before and I’ve been in the league almost as long as you!

[Minnesota Twins]

I thought we were doing a thing like when you ignore the guy after he hits the HR...

For real tho people were probably just waiting for the final tally which the commish usually does, but here goes

Detoit won East, West was a tie between Texas and Minnesota and tie breaker (Ks) goes to Minn.

Det wins: R, HR, RBI, SB, W, SV, K, ERA, WHIP
Min wins: AVG, OBP, HLD

Detroit wins the world series 9-3

Congratulation Detroit!

[New York Yankees]

At the end of the year, I looked at Tigers team n saw All Stars in near every position, my final team looked like a bunch of AAA rejects…lol! How in the world did my team even finish in 2nd??? But seriously, Congrats again Mr. commish!!!
