Well, somehow Caleb managed to survive major injuries to Bautista, Middlebrooks, and Morrow, as well as monstrous dump trades made by me and Bill, to win his 2nd title in a row. Can we start talking Dynasty yet?
Having finished in 3rd place, I am STILL the only person in this league to appear nowhere in the Hall of Champions (Taylor is not in for baseball, but is in for football).

Well done, Caleb. Kudos also to Bill and Luke for crossing the 60 point threshold and making the finish very exciting.
I owe $20 to Luke, right?
Congrats Caleb. Definitely a dynasty, which is pretty damn hard to accomplish in fantasy.
Indeed. I just fine it remarkable how he weathered Mike Trout doing Mike Trout things, as well as the major dump trades, which he chose not to use.
Who owes who what again?
I think it was 50/30/20... Is that right Bill? So 8th owes 1st $50, etc.
Thanks guys. Not entirely sure how that happened, as Andrew said. My team un-collapsed itself with a week left to play, and I still haven't figured out how Luke's juggernaut and Bill's sneaky team didn't hold out.
I think a dynasty requires three consecutive victories, by the way. Not that I won't be going for that next year, with my new set of relatively lousy keepers.
At least you'll be able to spend under $100 on your keepers, unlike me....
Also, as an aside, I don't think I've ever noticed how spectacular the background is in the Hall of Champions. Good stuff.
It's 50/30/20/0/0/-20/-30/-50 for money distribution. Thank god for my saves explosion in August and September to get me ahead of Taylor. I had 54 from August onwards, and only 32 up to that point.
I just realized that this actually makes 3 out of 5 for Caleb, dating back to 2008. That is most certainly a dynasty.
Congrats Caleb, you really rebounded from a really, really rough stretch (and some bad luck, trade timing wise with the Shields deal).
Thanks for the compliment on the background of the Hall of Champions. I had an awful lot of fun putting that together.
