Let me be the 2nd Braves fan on here to Congratulate you Fred Jacket!
May your favorite collegiate team win one next year.
Special group, to overcome all that they did and never give in.
Max not being able to pull his shirt over his shoulder, and then taking a cortisone shot. Strasburg deserved the MVP. Corbin was clutch. Rendon knocked in big runs all year long. Kendrick can get off the bus to the park hitting bullets. So happy for Zuki, Sanchez and Matt Adams. Very good team chemistry!!

Thanks @YellowJacketFan2018 & @Buzzbomb
Just happy as a fan to see such a good group reach the summit. You said @Buzzbomb... a good group. Really happy for all of them; but Ryan Zimmerman is top of list. He's been here since drafted in their 1st year in DC. 14 years with the team...Endured 100+ loss seasons. Slowly ownership & Mike Rizzo added parts to put together great rosters consistently competing for division titles. Now he's a World Champion!

You’re right Fred, should have mentioned Zimmerman. Didn’t he start out at 3B and play that position @ UVA? Collegiate AA? My memory is not as good. Injuries?
The bullpen was the Achilles Heel, like the rest of the Division. Daniel Hudson deserves credit, Doo for righting himself(he was overworked), Rainey, Rodney and even Ross when the Nats needed him. It was a team effort. World Championship Club!
