"I didnt see anyone calling Toronto a flawed team a week ago. They lose two games and now all of a sudden theyre flawed Or maybe Seattle has a league average 2B playing like hes prime Robinson Cano. And at the same time the Blue Jays bats cooled off a tiny bit. Making it into more than that is just rage bait. Not everything is about the Yankees"

"Ive seen people using Juan Soto as a reason the Yankees shouldnt be in on Skubal if he gets traded. The Yankees made the World Series with Juan Soto. It was frustrating that he didnt resign but the trade itself worked out for the Yankees. Im fine if they do it again for one year of Skubal. If the Dodgers are teaching us anything this offseason its that having as many ace level pitchers as possible might be the way to unlock consistent playoff success. The Yankees are one of very few teams that can emulate that strategy. Trading some of their arms in the farm system for a high-level starter"

"If Seattle wins the ALCS I think theres a legitimate case that the fourth best team in the American League this year will be playing in the World Series.

"They played in a far inferior division and had the third most wins and fourth best run differential in the league. They also got a first round bye despite having the third best record. Theres not really an argument they were the best team. But they do deserve to go to the WS if they win. Doesnt matter who the best team is just matters who moves on"

He didnt by any means deserve to be harmed let alone shot but he made a living making certain groups feel marginalized and unwelcome in our country.

"When you have the best record in the AL and also win the pennant thats a fair argument to say youre the best. When you have the third best record fourth best run differential and somehow had a playoff bye then thats when it gets harder to justify saying that. Either way doesnt matter who the best team is. Just matter who moves on. Seattle is in a great spot to do that"

"That ball was XX mph off the bat. For Jazz to not even knock it down and stop it from going into the outfield is not acceptable. Should have been a double play or at least one out. Letting it go by him could end the season. Yankees need to find a way from keeping this run for scoring"

"Two plays have changed this game. Schlittler intentionally lets a comebacker go past him and into the outfield and sets Toronto up to score the go ahead run. Then Jazz botches a double play ball to end the inning and Toronto capitalizes with two runs. If the Yankees dont come back the hardest pill to swallow will be that they beat themselves. And it wasnt like they had bad defenders on the field making bad plays. Jazz makes that play 99/100 times. But not tonight"

"The Yankees deserve some blame for the WS or bust mindset. They help perpetuate it publicly but privately they dont run their operation that way. I think that disconnect bothers a lot of people and I get that. But Im also not even sure its possible to run your team with a World Series or bust mindset. Cashmans job is to build the best roster he can. However the best team may or may not actually win the World Series. Building a team to excel over a XXX game season is an entirely different task than building a team for a one month playoff sprint. Building for the regular season favors actually"
