Game 5 was a Yankees disaster, no matter how you slice it.
Cole pitched his butt off. The Series should have gone back to LA for a game 6.
This team was a hot and cold team all year, more so than any World Series team in my memory.
Judge - the Captain - is the anti-Captain. He never shows up in the postseason. How do you take your eyes off a fly like that? Judge's boner.
Soto is gone. Probably to the Dodgers, who, like George Steinbrenner, thumb their nose at luxury tax. George's sons are/were NOTHING like their father. If George was still running the show, Boone would have been gone long ago, the Yankees would have unloaded Stanton, and the high-priced free agents brought in would be dumped if they were washed up.
But congrats to the Dodgers. Dave Roberts has evolved into a fine manager. Freddie deserves to be the Series MVP. Soto will almost certainly go to the Dodgers.
