    2 WS
    4 Pennants.
    6 ALCS

    What nickname do we give to this dynasty?

    Not a mini dynasty. Full on dynasty.

    I think they need a 3rd. I mean the Giants won 3 in 5 years not too long ago.

    My thoughts on this was like past eras got great names for team. Like the Murders' Row Yankees or Big Red Machine.

    Would just be cool to have a name embody this era and be able to quick roll off and live on in perpetuity.

    I'm fine being proven wrong by a stats guy. I just want something unimpeachable in baseball history.

    The Golden era…. Fitting that the WS pennants are gold as well.

    Going to 4 WS in 6 years (winning 2) is impressive and unlikely to be replicated.

    To be honest we have matched the Big Red Machine in the 70's.

    I think I'd take the Yankees winning 4 WS in 6 years not that long ago.

    Also, "unlikely to be replicated" is always a funny thing to say wrt baseball in the modern era
