The Race for 28

Fudal · 11-11-2023, 10:37 AM

The New York Yankees are by far the most storied and successful franchise in the history of the MLB, accruing 27 World Series Championships. The Las Vegas Eternal (got the name and logo from my favorite team in the Overwatch League, an e-sport), on the other hand, is a brand new expansion team in the MLB, with absolutely 0 history. The expansion draft will bring us our first 26-man roster, as well as 14 extra players to fill out our 40-man.
