For the first time in four years, we have a new world champion. The Cleveland Indians, 101-61 (.623) win their first World Series since 1948. It is good to see Cleveland come out on top of this series as they previously lost to the New York Mets in both the 2018 and 2020 World Series. They defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers in five games.

For the second year in a row there were four teams with 100 or more wins: Los Angeles Dodgers (111-51), New York Mets (108-54), Texas Rangers (107-55), and Cleveland Indians (101-61).

Here are the Indians' top five batters by WAR:

Francisco Lindor, SS (694 PA, 6.7 WAR)
.296 AVG, .353 OBP, .494 SLG, 108 R, 23 HR, 89 RBI, 6 SB, 137 wRC+
Jeimer Candelario, 3B (715 PA, 6.2 WAR)
.290 AVG, .351 OBP, .516 SLG, 111 R, 32 HR, 92 RBI, 2 SB, 139 wRC+
Octavio Sandoval, CF (542 PA, 6.2 WAR)
.295 AVG, .348 OBP, .522 SLG, 85 R, 22 HR, 65 RBI, 14 SB, 144 wRC+
Jonathan Schoop, 2B (698 PA, 4.9 WAR)
.261 AVG, .311 OBP, .459 SLG, 88 R, 27 HR, 206 RBI, 1 SB, 115 wRC+
Bradley Zimmer, RF (665 PA, 4.2 WAR)
.295 AVG, .379 OBP, .466 SLG, 86 R, 19 HR, 78 RBI, 15 SB, 137 wRC+

And their top five pitchers by WAR:

Danny Salazar, SP (189.0 IP, 4.0 WAR)
30 GS, 14 W, 7 L, 3.14 ERA, 1.25 WHIP, 171 K, 2.7 BB/9, 8.1 K/9, 3.53 FIP
Jose Fernandez, SP (201.2 IP, 2.8 WAR)
34 GS, 17 W, 4 L, 3.03 ERA, 1.19 WHIP, 158 K, 3.3 BB/9, 7.1 K/9, 4.09 FIP
Carlos Carrasco, SP (175.1 IP, 2.5 WAR)
31 GS, 9 W, 7 L, 3.95 ERA, 1.38 WHIP, 147 K, 2.7 BB/9, 7.5 K/9, 4.03 FIP
Tyler Skaggs, SP (147.0 IP, 1.9 WAR)
30 GS, 13 W, 11 L, 4.81 ERA, 1.37 FIP, 151 K, 3.2 BB/9, 7.6 K/9, 4.16 FIP
Yimi Garcia, RP (72.1 IP, 1.4 WAR)
85 G, 3 W, 4 L, 12 SV, 2.86 ERA, 1.01 WHIP, 73 K, 2.2 BB/9, 9.1 K/9, 2.85 FIP

The Indians were powered by a very talented offense (three players with more than 6 WAR, and another two with more than 4 WAR). Their offense pulled most of the weight as the pitching was solid but not outstanding.

Can the Indians or Mets win another championship? Can the Dodgers finally bring home a championship after consecutive 100 win seasons? We will see what 2022 has to hold...
