Dynasty Over?

14 Division Titles, 4 World Series Titles, and 15 Straight playoff appearances. With 12 games left on the schedule, the Arizona dynasty appears to be coming to an end, as the struggling franchise has fallen to 6 games back in the wild card race. Barring a meltdown, it looks like the once proud Thunder Chickens will be watching the playoffs for the first time in franchise history. To make matters worse out west, rumors are out that all-world owner Colson55555 may be selling the team.

Latino Heat

The future is looking bright in Syracuse after new owner kthomson landed Cuban star pitcher, Humberto Morales. Morales inked a franchise record $19.5 million deal in the international market, almost 4 times as much as the franchise paid for Mexican pitcher Orber Trajano last year. After a terrible start and the unceremonious goodbye to previous management, fans in Syracuse have something to cheer about.
