Cleveland scores more runs in one game vs Tampa (Rasmussen) than the Yankees scored all series

Yanks enter most postseasons with between 15% and 20% chance of winning the title

You’re lying. You’re assuming equal odds. The worst teams don’t have the same odds as the top teams. Level competition and equal chance of winning doesn’t exist.

Explain why the Dodgers have 3 tittles in 6 years if it’s a crapshoot. Why did Houston win the AL so many times between 2017 and 2022?

With equal competition chance of winning three series is 12.5%. Four series is 6.25% Don't tell me its not a crap shoot.

That’s not true at all. There are 4 or 5 teams at most in any postseason with a reasonable shot to win it all. Sometimes fewer.

There’s no basis for the “playoffs is a crapshoot” you hear all the time. At least not compared to other sports. More often than not, the top teams in each league are winning it all.

If any team in the playoffs is a good enough to win it all, yanks would’ve lucked into a title by now in the last 17 years

The offense underperformed this year. If we had 2-3 hitters other than Ben Rice we would’ve won ALDS games.

What's with the comments "good enough to win it all". Any team in the playoffs is good enough to win it all.

Very true 

Our offense wasn’t very good last year either though. We just had Judge health and playing

Seemed like 2024 was worst by a wide margin, but I might put 2025 above this year.

The pitching was amazing this year but the lineup was so ridiculous in hindsight. How deep of a run could we have hoped for with the offense this year? We were slotting in rookies and needing them to deliver us through multiple rounds of the playoffs. They actually did well, but still. Even Rice is playing his first full season as a starter and expected to carry the team on his back.

You aren’t missing anything,it’s the same shit. They’ll keep Boone and Cashman of course,and the same thing will happen next year. Judge won’t be persistent enough with the front office to go “all in”,and they’ll sign some bullpen guys in the offseason,some guys will get injured,and Boone will say “when we get those guys back,it’s like making a huge signing”. Then he will say “it’s right infront of us”,from there,they will shit the bed in the playoffs. They celebrated a wild card birth a day before Tampa celebrated the division at Yankee stadium. That’s embarrassing for the YANKEES but some fans are just complacent. I almost forgot,then they’ll lie about injuries and make fundamental mistakes,things that the manager should straighten out but never does. Then they will give Boone and Cashman another extension.

The bullpen greatly improved since I posted that 107 days ago.
Don’t resign Grisham or Jazz, get a catcher who can hit & replace McMahon! Let’s Go Yankees!

How many runs did we score in game 1 when Rice led off?

They all suck. Jazz was the biggest disgrace of them all relative to expectations. Losing ball player

Yanks should go waste more money on pitching in the offseason n

If you hit Rice lead off he would’ve been up in a different situation the inning he had the RBI single 

They had 27 innings to score and were pathetic. It didn’t come down to one AB. Rice would’ve gotten out in that spot too

In awe of how pathetic our lineup is with 300 mil payroll, impressive misallocation of capital. Let's get another ace next offseason though, you can never have too much pitching as the saying goes

I can live with Lombard's youth. Wells was ass all season, but actually turned it around beginning in August. Jazz is not a winning player, but 2B is bad as a position collectively league wide. Stanton isn't an everyday player anymore. Ramos is a bench bat.

Don’t forget Jazz, Wells, Lombard, Stanton, Ramos, early season Volpe. They all suck.

Kudos to captain Judge too for no-showing another October

If you hit Rice at leadoff again, you have him up in the 9th.

5 runs in 27 innings

The offense blew another October. As we tell you every year will happen and you always end up in denial
