The 2008 season started with the Red Sox as champs. They were beaten by the A's, who were beaten back by Boston, who were then swept by Toronto, who lost to Oakland, who lost to Cleveland, and so on, until we reached our current champion.
The Heavyweight of the Year is the team that wins the most title bouts at the end of the season.

Baseball Toaster runs on some experimental software called Fairpole. It's still under development.

Milton Bradley has been designated for assignment. Reasons unknown, press conference to follow soon.
The timing is related to Eric Chavez getting hurt again. If he can't play this weekend in New York, the A's are short an infielder. They needed to call up somebody (Kevin Melillo, in this case), and needed to send somebody off the roster as well. The fact that Bradley is the guy to go, however, is rather shocking.
