It’s as if the #1 thing Cashman looks for in a player is the ability to strike out: Sanchez, Gallo, Donaldson, Wells, Judge, Stanton, Jazz, Verdugo, Volpe. All of the players he targets strike out like crazy. The dynasty Yankees (which Cashman didn’t build) put the ball in play.

This is the same thing the Mets ran into. You have to jump on their starter. If you do not it's a long night at the office.

Considering the amount of runs the Mets gave up to the Dodgers, the Yankees pitching hasn't been bad. This lineup is insane and you kind of expect 4-5 runs against.

The Yankees offense is full of black holes. They have been shut down by just about every starter that they've faced.

I said this from the beginning: When half your lineup is hitting below the Mendoza line, it's very tough to win games. Dodgers' offense is so much deeper than the Yankees. It's been the case all season. Judge's turning into one of the worst postseason players in baseball history is just kicking the team while it's down.

Cole and Rodon were your stopgaps. You can't rely on Schmidt and Gil to win you games. Bullpen actually did a very good job, but the offense continues to be f***ing awful. They can't string together three hits and they cant consistently hit home runs, so they're done. Doesn't help that they're taking meatballs down the middle and swinging at nonsense nowhere near the zone. Everything is going wrong all at once.
