bushido_man96 Posted November 6, 2022 Posted November 6, 2022 Astros take it!Yep, that's a wrap! Congrats to the Astros and their fans on another World Championship! https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
sensei8 Posted November 6, 2022 Author Posted November 6, 2022 Congratulations to the Astros for winning the 2022 World Series; winning their 2nd World Series Championship. I don't have to like that, however, I tip my hat to the Astros.Game over when Alvarez hit a towering 450-yard go-ahead homer for their 2nd WS title. Gave Dusty Baker his first championship.GO YANKEES!! **Proof is on the floor!!!
bushido_man96 Posted November 6, 2022 Posted November 6, 2022 A big congrats to Dusty Baker, who has been at this for a long time. He really deserves to finally win one, locking him into Cooperstown for sure. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com

DarthPenguin Posted November 7, 2022 Posted November 7, 2022 Congrats to the Astros on winning the WS and becoming North American champions!Good to see Dusty Baker get a WS as a mgr (he definitely was overdue) and to see Verlander win a WS game too!The debate now is do the Astro's count as a dynasty? titles are several years apart but they have gotten to the ALCS every year if not the WS
bushido_man96 Posted November 7, 2022 Posted November 7, 2022 I think "dynasty" is few more titles away. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
sensei8 Posted November 8, 2022 Author Posted November 8, 2022 I think "dynasty" is few more titles away.Dynasty?? The Astros?? Far more than a few titles are needed for that label. **Proof is on the floor!!!

Well, I don't think they need 26 to labeled a dynasty. But a run of like 3 titles in 5 years, and several LCS appearances along the way, then that's more like it. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
DarthPenguin Posted November 8, 2022 Posted November 8, 2022 There was an interesting article on ESPN.com about them being a dynasty which is why i mentioned it. Personally i think the last dynasty was the Yankees one around the turn of the millennium, though an argument could be made for the Giants 3 WS a few years ago. Personally i don't think the Giants were dominant enough to be a dynasty.Astros are on the cusp of one though. WS next year and i would be swayed towards it tbh. Though hopefully next year is the Mariners year!!!
sensei8 Posted November 8, 2022 Author Posted November 8, 2022 Well. in many cases, whether a team or individual has achieved a dynasty is subjective. There's perhaps there's been a tiny hand full of MLB dynasties ranging from the Red Sox to the, I must have to admit, the Astros.After all, according to Websters Dictionary:"a powerful group or family that maintains its position for a considerable time" So, seems to be that having a prolonged run of successful seasons, like the Astros, for example, dominated the American League with 6-straight postseason appearances, winning 5 AL West division titles, 4 AL pennants in 2017, 2019, 2021, & 2022, & 2 World Series titles in 2017 and 2022.So, per Websters, the Astros are a dynasty, no matter how much I hate the fact.GO YANKEES!! **Proof is on the floor!!!
