I haven't checked who won but a quick series seems to net an obvious guess.

Spoiler

Another season, another loss. 0-3 in Brewmasters. Congratulations funclown. Your team was 8 games better than everyone else, so really no surprise here. Hopefully everyone is smart enough to not let you reload prospects and picks by selling vets.

I thought this was my best GM job I've done. I really thought it might finally be my turn to win one over the favorite.

I had hoped to at least make it a series. I'm still selling the guys on my block. Just ask.

PSA: Remember don't feed the beast.

Thanks UMD. I'm one the guys who voted you #1 for GM of the year. (Hank 2nd, Jake 3rd) You took a look a your team, decided this isn't working, retooled in season and still won the division by years end. Well done!!!!

Yeah i didn't expect it to go that easy to be honest after losing some offense. This was "spit at the gods season" and agreed we came in as loaded as we've ever been. Special thanks to Spear who suggested "Why not take both?" Also to the ones who thought Lemus wasn't very good.

Now, can this be maintained? We have some guys in they're prime or entering it, but we have a few guys entering they're mid thirties and the cliff can come at any moment. Like to try a repeat with this group, but like every season might have to tweak some positions.

Either way, to tie Jistic with our 2nd cup!!!!!! This one was for you old pal.

Wow, 2 voided contracts and my manager decided to retire on a high note.

[BDub]

Congrats to Clown. UMD did a great job changing gears during the season to get his team to the Brewmasters Cup series.

Overall, it was a good season. We let manager Steve Boyd walk and promote long time bench coach Manny Reyna to manager. That should win us a title.

We'll do our usual tweaking this offseason, but I think our core is still solid and we have several pitchers ready to come up.

We're still looking for a permanent solution at C, a starting caliber CF, and an upgrade at SS. PM me with any ideas.

[Carlos]

Congrats to both teams.

Funclown created a legit great roster. Though I do think his whackiness is a bit of a cheat.

Umd is always a favorite of mine with how he turns that roster constantly but consistently. You'll be back.

Clown you aren't resigning Reeves?

[funclown]

Clown you aren't resigning Reeves?

He voided his player option, but it appears we reached an agreement. Him and Franco had player options. That being said you never know. Always the risk with the one sim window he comes back wanting more $$$$. Then it's too late.

Congrats, wall to wall winner this year.

Augustin Perales retired. He's part of the trade that kicked off my moderate success.
