Business as usual as while it would’ve been nice to just take a bus ride to smack up the Mets at Citi Field, let’s destroy the Dodgers in LA

Yup.

Turn this thing into a slugfest and Judge better get off his Sabrina Ionescu/Brianna Stewart in Game 5 shīt and launch some balls into the LA night like Kirk Gibson.

Time for Judge to finally wake up against this weak pitching LA has.

Might be a couple games where they just have to outscore them offensively.

The whole lineup needs the green light to cannibalize the Dodger pitching.

The small ball / win late thing worked in Cleveland but it’s time for everyone to bring the bats

Take advantage of their pen. It's like the Guardians with better bats. They had no answers on the staff.

Baseball has no salary cap right? Is that amount considered alot for Baseball?

Late reply, but yeah, that contract would be on par with the most expensive contract ever (Shohei ohtani signed a 10 year, $700M contract)

 

[UpAndComing]

Shut your bytch ass up lol. You already exposed yourself as a frontrunner.

Outside of the Yankees.. The Celtics, Giants, and Rangers weren't in the front of shyt 20 years ago

Just exposed your fakkit ass that you lack comprehension. Just throwing words out to dap fish

 

[mvp_status]

Yall spoiled ass nikkas did all this bytchin in here all season just to sleepwalk to another World Series.

Yes I'm mad. Don't quote me, leave me alone.

 

[obarth]

to add: the Yankees for 2 months not only sucked but also sucked at home. Nobody took advantage of that.

As for the Astros, the playoffs are a different monster of course, but all Houston had was the past to overcome the Yankees this year. This Astros team just wasn't as good as before and we beat them in all but 1 game.


We can't postpone the playoffs til the Astros get healthy and right. The postseason has gone our way and that happens and we still have 1 more series to go. The Astros play in a division with teams that don't wanna get right outside of Texas last year (and even they choked down the stretch to Houston). No apologies from the Yankees or the fans.

I remember too well telling mfers to calm the fukk down, because as we were "spiraling" we never got any further than about 3 games behind the Orioles. Every one else was slumping, hence no 100 w8n team. I had to tell a lot of youngins who weren't around for anything but maybe '09 that 162 games is a ridiculous amount of time. Age has given me the luxury to realize Stanton is being when he talks about what the goal is, but optimism makes me realize the journey each particular player has taken this year. nikkas wanted Gleyber traded. They wanted Rizzo traded. That storyline rings true for other players. Yet here they are.

Wells and Chisolm producing just a bit, besides defense, Rizzo being a tough motherfukker, bullpen showing up, etc. This team doesn't need a lot to beat a Doyers team that are very much front runners. I'm not afraid of them getting back up if we smack them in the mouth early
