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.
For more information, please visit the Fairpole blog, or read the FAQ.
The Oakland Athletics and the City of Fremont both issued announcements today that the A's had finally submitted their development plans for the Cisco Field ballpark village.
I'm sure you will all want to immediately download the development application document, and turn directly to page 69, where you can, at long last, get that detailed map you have been so anxiously awaiting of the existing sewer lines in the ballpark area.
The process moves forward now with a 12-to-18 month debate over how to mitigate the impact on all the displaced ninja turtles.
Not the months part, but it's actually a greater distance from one end of Fremont to the other (about 14 miles) than it is from the Oakland border to the Fremont border (about 11 miles).
It's about 22.5 miles from the old ballpark to the new one. It's about 7 miles from the new ballpark to the Fremont BART station.
