Congrats Oracle!!!!
The person I was happiest for was Brian Cashman.
I'm not the biggest Cashman fan to be honest...I don't think he makes the best out of his payrolls.

I'm praying he can sign Soto in the off season...Watched him all year and he's legit...Going to be in the hall someday.

Bring on the Dodgers now...Baseball's oldest rivalry is on again.

Go Dodgers, rooting for Teo and KK, more than anything else.

Even though Teo has a WS ring already, he really didn't earn it, as he played in only a handful of games in the reg. season in 2017 for the Astros, before he was traded to the Jays, hopefully he's out of his slump.

The Mets have deeper pockets...
I can't remember any case where the Yankees lost a free agent whom they wanted to keep. I think Juan enjoys being a Yankee, and that will be more important to him than a few extra dollars that he'll never need to spend. I am 100% sure that he will reject the one year qualifying offer.

I used to watch a lot of Yankees games when I had WPIX as part of my TV cable package. One time Billy Crystal was in the broadcast booth with Phil Rizzuto and Bill White, and Billy was doing his Rizzuto imitation, and it went right over Phil's head. it was epic.

I don’t know why they’re starting the series on Friday. And then if it goes to a game seven, it would be on November 2nd. They need to finish this thing in October to solidify the term “October baseball.“ They could have started this series on Tuesday and then game seven if necessary would be played on October 30th. I just like that feeling for the season to officially finish in the month of October. Even though New York City is freezing at this point. What a difference in temperature at this time of year between New York and Los Angeles.

I salivate like Pavlov's dog.

I miss Tiger Stadium. I was there during OJ's slo-mo car chase. They were playing the Jays.
I am going to a concert in Detroit at the end of this week. I was kind of hoping Detroit would go to the World Series lol totally dreaming ….. I would have gotten tickets for it. Now it’s just going to be about the concert and Eminem’s mom‘s spaghetti, restaurant spaghetti sandwiches. With the emergence of so many quality Detroit pizzerias in Toronto, Detroit Pizza is not the same novelty it once was. But these spaghetti sandwiches are another story.

Top two teams are left.

I have no horse in this race so I get to be a pure fan and enjoy what will hopefully be a good 7 game series.
