BL East
New York Sprite 563-410 5x Playoffs (4 WC) 1x WS Appearance (2019)
Franchise Player: RF Bryce Harper .291/.437/.570 246 HR 718 RBI 36.4 WAR…
6x AS 4x SS 1x MVP… Drafted 16th Overall

After criticisms of being overrated in the MLB, Bryce Harper turned over a new leaf in the FBA. He’s a dynamo for an offense that has averaged 6 runs a game in five consecutive seasons. Even though they’ve had multiple 100+ win seasons, the advantages that would usually be given to those teams have been negated by their division rivals in Kentucky.

Kentucky Fried Chicken 628-345 6x Playoffs (1 WC) 1x WS Appearance (2020)
Franchise Player: RF Juan Soto .295/.404/.546 169 HR 568 RBI 24.3 WAR
4x AS 1x SS Drafted 34th Overall

Kentucky versus New York has unexpectedly become the FBA’s biggest rivalry. KFC has had plenty of big stars come through the doors- was the selection of Juan Soto just to pair with Bryce Harper? The answer is no, but the symbolism after selecting them is pretty obvious. Jose Ramirez and Chris Sale raked in 2 MVPs and 3 POTYs respectively in their times at Kentucky, but they left for greener pastures in the Farmer’s League. Juanjo has been in Kentucky day in and day out, and even though he’s had confusingly regressive seasons in his 24th and 25th year seasons, he is still a serious presence in the clubhouse. Fried Chicken’s reign over the BL East is expected to continue into 2025, thanks to a deep minor league system and young stars galore. The only worry on the roster is the weak bullpen.

Charleston Cheetos 512-460 3x Playoffs (3 WC)
Franchise Player: SS Andres Giminez .305/.398/.410 43HR 351 RBI 22.6 WAR
3x AS 2x SS 1x Batting Title Drafted 1188th

The former Mets prospect has cut out his own path in the FBA, helping the Cheetos claim a few playoff spots in what is basically the FBA’s group of death with both NY and KFC occupying it.

Hershey Kisses 480-492 2x Playoffs (2 WC)
Franchise Player: RF Alex Morales .276/.415/.542 215HR 689 RBI 27.7 WAR 3x SS 1x MVP 17th Overall

The league’s best kept secret (up his very recent MVP season.) Morales has always had great numbers, but he hasn’t been popular enough to crack the All-Star teams (it doesn’t help that he’s battling Bryce Harper for the position.) He is the league’s most infamous playboy.
