Latest Public Board Post
5/31/2020Miami Marlins/ Fave Teams AutosJayslater1223
So, awhile ago I started on the quest to win a an Auto League-Fave Teams ring with all 30 franchises...

If you've ever participated in the Best of the Best custom leagues, you know Miami is perhaps THE toughest roster build, and that's using plus players (BOTB2) and an upgrade system (original BOTB)

Yankeebb won a FT Auto ring with them in the 'Range Factor' era..

I do believe I'm the first to nail one down with them in 'dWAR era' ..

It took winning a WC game, beating a 23-0 Jacob deGrom (who pitched into the 10th) and a solid Mets club in Game 7 of the LCS, and going six with a tough Cubs club to get the job done...

That leaves just the Royals and Brewers now left on the list. Wish me luck
