Do I understand correctly that this is Houston’s first World Series win, and they have been a team since ‘62?

Yes, Ma'am

Well then....even though I was hoping the other team would win, I can’t really begrudge them the win.

Yeah, me neither. I do feel responsible because I tried watching game 7.....but the cable went out in the 5th inning and I had to wait until yesterday to learn the outcome.

I am OK with anyone winning the WS except for the Yankees!

Well, maybe except for Baltimore.....

Chipper is going to be in the Hall Of Fame. He's one of my favorites.

I saw Chipper play in Triple A when he came through Richmond on the way to the Show. Class act.

I remember the knee injury in 94. There was all this hype about him coming up from the minors and he suffered a bad injury right off the bat. Good thing he was able to bounce back. He had an awesome career.

Red Sox finally signed J.D. Martinez. It gives them the power threat they were lacking last year after Ortiz retired.

This offseason was very strange. Free agent market was very slow to develop and there are still ton of players that have not signed.

I'm liking Boston's chances. Can't wait until the season starts.

...I'm not expecting much but mediocrity from my Reds again this year, but they have quietly signed a couple of youngsters for short-stop and pitching that may bolster the Big Red eventually.....

I love the Blue Jays. Loved them a lot of years when they didn’t win. Loved them more when they did. Lol Already have tickets to two games this year, so obviously, still love them when they don’t win.

But....I have to assume fangraphs needs to clean their crystal ball.

Dodgers beat the Yankees in the 2018 World Series. You heard it first, here.

....Homer Bailey is the Opening Day pitcher for the Reds....great!....0-1 start..........we fans have watched tons of dollars be wasted on him riding the pine, when we could have gotten some help in free agency....
