Elephant Rumblings: The 2022 season is over

Happy Monday, Athletics Nation!

Welp, the season is over and evil prevailed: the Houston Astros, infamous for the cheating scandal that helped them win the 2017 World Series, defeated the Philadelphia Phillies in six games for another title. It’s a different Astros team in many respects; most of the roster is different, and they have a pretty cool manager in Dusty Baker, who most of us agree is well deserving of his newfound glory.

But the core of the team still consists of unrepentant cheaters like Alex Bregman, Jose Altuve, and Yuli Gurriel.
