Three times in the top three...not too bad. A 2016 title would round that out nicely.

Posey was kind of an annoyance, but what ever happened to Aaron W. or Mike G.?

I remember Mike in particular was a good, longstanding member of this league.

Be good to maybe get them back next year...

Kind of surprising that there has not been a single repeat winner in this league's history. That's kind of cool. It's the anti- Baseball Obsession league in that respect.

UPDATED 12/21: So I was nerding around and sticking to a formula that I did it over at my other league, and here it goes.

Using the 3 point system (1st place = 3 points, 2nd place = 2 points, 3rd place = 1 point), here is the cumulative Winter League leaderboard:

Brandon M. (Scrantonicity) 12 points
Jon H. (Heggos) 8 points
Scott S. (Sman) 8 points
Brandon F. (Freezedawgs) 7 points
Garrett W. (Scioscia-ily Awkward) 5 points
Manny (Double Trouble) 4 points
Nate F. (Polanco) 4 points
Buxton (Giant Knockers) 4 points
Amato (Pinstripe Power) 4 points
Davis (Ruben Amaro Hates Me) 4 points
David B. (Killabees) 4 points

Took an extra year. Got my title in 17 :)

Need to get back to my winning ways. Two years since in top three.

For those new to the league, it's worth documenting that this league currently features:

Heggos aka Jon Hegglund- a fantasy baseball analyst who writes regularly for Baseball Prospectus
(https://www.baseballprospectus.com/author/hegglund/)

and previously featured:

Scioscia-ily Awkward aka Garrett Wilson- The Atlanta Braves Manager of Baseball Systems who had to leave his W.B.O. league dominance
(He would have been in violation of MLB rules to stay in our league!) to run analytics for a MLB Front Office.
(https://www.mlb.com/press-release/brave ... -302708508)

This league has talent at the top, and some serious MLB resume in the past.

One of my top fantasy moments is saying that I lost to the head of analytics to the Atlanta Braves in his final fantasy baseball matchup.

Mike just had a kid, but Donald and I are in regular touch with him. Could try to twist his arm for next year.

That sounds good. Let's get him back in '22!
