Never saw such a young team being so well balanced. Just a solid bunch of players. Who would'a thunk it?

Talk about balance. Who gets the game ball? Offense? Pitcbing. Defence?

For Hentges to step up and pitch 3 innings (when is the last time he did that?) at such a time....to me he's the MVP of that game.

Code: Select all
The stage is set for a clash of styles as Major League home run leader Aaron Judge and the big-swinging Yankees prepare to take on a Guardians roster that finds success by relying on pitching, defense and situational hitting.
A David and Goliath story ?
One of the turning points this season, in my opinion, was the series vs the Dodgers. If the Guardians can take a series from the Dodgers, no reason why they wouldn't have the same chances vs the Yankees.
If the pitching can keep the batters in the park, we got a shot. The best offense is a good defense (and good pitching).
This team has momentum and confidence on their side right now. Gotta take advantage of that.
The pressure is all on the Yankee's defense in my opinion. I read that the Guardians had well over 100 infield hits this year. Forcing mental and physical errors could be a key to unlocking some doors.
This team seems to thrive on pressure (witness all the extra inning affairs the Guardians have won and all the close ones they've lost and could easily have won). I think all the pressure will be on the Yankees.i don't think they want to be humiliated by a young, upstart Guardian baseball team with one of the lowest salaries in baseball.
I love small ball
Just my humble opinion.
GO TEAM

Hard to believe that none of these guys can get the ball out of the infield (or strikeout) with runners on base. Almost 3 games and all runs on home runs. Next year they can not have Naylor bat 4th.
