The World Series is here! Although the games aren't quite done, I have some stuff to get to, and I think we're good to call it. This year will feature the American League Champion Boston Red Sox and the National League Champion Colorado Rockies in the 2017 Base Knock Dynasty Baseball World Series. I'll be sending out an invite to you, Chris, to join the World Series scoring league on ESPN. Be sure to add your players to your roster by the games tomorrow. As per the rules, teams must post a 25-man roster for the World Series that is locked throughout the entire World Series. The Rockies and Red Sox must post this roster prior to the start of the first game tomorrow (6:07PMCT). Chris (Former Red Sox GM)Here's the league link so the rest of the league can follow along: games.espn.com/flb/leagueoffice?leagueId=5884&seasonId=2017Best of luck to you, Chris! Looking forward to a great matchup! - Alex |

Das (Former Giants GM) Great matchup man! I thought you had me after Friday. I'm sure this won't be the last playoff matchup in the next few years between us!

Alex, just got into the ESPN league. Thanks
Looking forward to a WS showdown. I'd say there's a good 80% chance I get spanked here. Rockies is clearly the better team. But I'm gonna push like hell for that 20% outcome.
Rangers and Angels put up a hell of a fight in the AL. WS seems to always go through those 2.

Stat of the day:
The Red Sox and Rockies both missed the playoffs in 2016. The 2017 World Series Champ will be the first in league history to win it having missed the playoffs the previous season.

With my rotation and lineup seemingly disappearing, I'm going to need superhuman performances from here on out... Chris has 5 starters over the weekend to my 2. Hoping Judge can just keep blasting home runs.

This is a close one. Think it's gonna come down to Sunday. I'm gonna need some good pitching performances this weekend, and that has not been happening lately.
I keep tabs on this in the Espn game casts at night. Every time Judge is up I watch in terror. That guy can single-handedly lose this for me this weekend. He tried to last night.
Looking forward to a good weekend of fantasy baseball.

Looks like this is all over but the crying. Well done Rockies. A well deserved win. Your guys really showed up yesterday and mine did not. That pretty much sealed it.
I'm looking to come back next year....
