Overall, great season for the 2026 teams. A lot of mix up and new teams emerging. Teams that have not lost are taking some L's and the dynasties are having a hard time remaining dynasties. If you are being talked about, you clearly do not stink. The reloading is beginning now and there will be a new crop next season...unfortunately with a heavy hold back influence. Regarding the World Series, 6 out of 8 teams that made the Championship bracket came from the Eastern Qualifier. The MD addition to the World Series clearly had a big impact on this event this year and will continue going forward (assuming it stays in MD).
