That will be it for this Dynasty.

Basically the different games I run each have different appeal for me. This one would be building the team up from basically nothing... but starting one with the new version of the game will do the same thing, but instead of having Guerrero, it will have Guerrero, Bichette, Biggio...

I still have lots of other Dynasties in the meantime.

1909 Brooklyn Superbas (started in 1901), looking to go to the World Series again.
1988 Toronto Blue Jays (started in 1977), going to the postseason.
2022 Blue Jays (started in... 2013?), this one is... well, we'll see. It is getting more and more just fictional players and such.
2019 Blue Jays (started in 2016). I managed to trade for Mike Trout in this one. He is fun to watch. He is in the running for another Triple Crown.
1988 San Francisco Giants.... for now. This one has me as a player. I am not 'playing' this one as much as following it.

Anyway... if anyone is reading this... bye!
