As we bask(?) in the crowning of the Dodger’s at the conclusion of the country’s least favored World Series and the ensuing offseason frenzy has just begun, I thought it might be fun to engage in the kind of hypotheticals that emerge in the immediate post-World Series media. Namely, were the World Series champions the “best” team that season or did they just have a good postseason? It’s an interesting question if for no other reason than it delays the inevitable discussion on free agency that seemingly always boils down to how much money one of the mega-market teams will spend on a single player.
