Absolutely....baseball really needed a Yankee/Dodger series. Of course me being a Yankee fan doesn't have anything to do with my opinion....yeah right.

Agree about Judge 

But ya gotta have some admiration for Altuve......how many times in his life has he been told that he's not big enough to play the game? ....and probably about every level since he was 12 years old.    He has had a lot to overcome...including being born in Venezuela.

He and Judge were something to watch....except that Verlander owned Judge...

Verlander owned just about all the Yankees

Pretty much showed up everyone that thought it was a bad trade for the Astros.

Well them too....did you see the video 21 Ks in 21 seconds.....?   Some really bad scenes for Yankee batters

...amazing stuff on those 3rd strikes.

Yep amazing what playing for a contender can do for your psyche. He looked like early Detroit years in the postseason.

I've always like him but at Detroit he was rarely contending......when the games were on the line for Astros he showed what he has inside. I will say that I liked the move when it was made and glad to see him get the chance for a ring....

tried to get the video....can't make it open though...if you have not seen it, pretty easy to find I think....amazing stuff on those 3rd strikes.

no didn't see it don't think I want to punk all over myself so I may just skip it.

No didn't see it coming after getting one game from world series but I did hear he would be gone if they did get to the AL championship. I think its a mistake imo

Not sure what was going behind the scenes but looks like they / he had built a team that should last for a few years with some good young players.   I'm guessing it was not just "on the field" stuff....:dunno:

Plus they are loaded in the farm system. Oh well the Yankee way I guess

I thought he was a great coach. Definitely something going on. He was only one game from the World Series this year so it’s not like his team isn’t performing.

Agree....the Yanks had gotten further than expected...unless expectations were higher earlier in the season and he was under fire for making it so close.    I liked him....cool under fire and let the players play the game.

I have always contended that a baseball manager has only two serious jobs......making up the line-up and knowing when to pull a pitcher.    :)       He seemed pretty good at both.
