One of the weird things about watching the postseason as a middle-aged lady is the weird protective feelings that develop for certain "kids" -- specific to this World Series, last night I was like, "I want the Jays to win but I don't want them to do it off Sasaki," who has a birthday on Monday but still won't be old enough to rent a car.
Well, they didn't do either thing so we're getting max Classic this year. Love that for us!
A little thin on the ground, the points, which I don't love, but I also felt relieved for Mookie -- it was only the one, but it was THE one.

As noted in a previous update, this is now a fight for second and third. The same five slates have been crabs-in-a-barreling for a week now, and going into the last game of 2025, here's where they are:
160 Izzo
126 Bauer Snoozical
124 Quinn 2
122 Mectomy and Mopsiukas 1
120 MArbour 1
From my perspective, it's nice to see this mix of new players and old heads, with the defending BPP champ in the mix too.
Everyone else after the jump!
