This is why I can't give the Dodgers too much credit.

They're playing a team a poorly schooled team that plays anti-fundamental baseball
I haven’t been impressed by any team that the Yankees have lost to since 2017. Every time the story has been how they beat themselves or ignored massive flaws in their roster until it cost them in a playoff series except maybe Boston in 2018. Always among the very worst teams in the league in the context of fielding, base running, hitting with men on, hitting into double plays, and stringing hits together.

The goddamn Mets gave the Dodgers a mini wake up call and now you almost wish the damn subway series happened.

Everyone wanted this dodgers/yanks matchup and it hasn’t lived up to anything at all.

The problem is that nearly every Yankees playoff series of the past decade sucks because they don’t execute the fundamentals so it’s always defined by them blowing it in stupid ways.
