So is it better for the Yankees to lose today or extend the series one more game and burn both team's pitching staffs?

So far Dusty has outmanaged Servais, Boone and Robert's with his use of bullpen
He has also made a lot of folks eat crow by sticking with Yuli, who has hit .400 & OPSed 1.000 so far.

Between the Astros, Bama, TCU/Okie Lite, Yankees, and Dodgers games yesterday, it was an all-time sports day. Not only in outcomes, but in quality of games.

so the Astros have now won a playoff series against more than half the American League:

Mariners
A's

Indians
White Sox
Twins

Yankees
Red Sox
Rays

in the past 6 years


You can add the Royals in 2015, and how many other teams havent made the playoffs since then?

Rangers
Tigers
Angels
O's and Jays didnt face us

The 2015 Royals that won the WS?

Lose today. No question.
You want the team you play to have a wrecked pitching staff. Cole today means he's game 3 in the LCS and that's it. Playing game 5 they will use Cortez and who knows. The Yankees will be a wreck. Game 5 means Cleveland uses Bieber on short rest and he's not available until game 4.

You want game 5 here.

Clanton does a fantastic job with these. Especially with all the Seattle bands this series.

I just realized Servais was right, it IS hard to win at their place.

I agree

However this is the best chance Cleveland has to knock out the Yanks.

I don't think they finish them off in GM 5 at Yankee Stadium

It is hard, but still very possible to win. I give you Exhibit A from yesterday.

I would rather play any team with a decimated pitching staff than a hot one with a chance to set up a rotation. And if Cleveland wins they are that team.

I mean, it's fun to pile on the Dodgers (and Braves, Mets, probably Yanks) but fundamentally these short series are a pretty unfair way to pick a champ after 162 game regular season has shown who the best teams are.

It's the system we have because in America we demand that a playoff picks the winner, and I'm glad the Astros keep doing well in the format, but it's a little nuts.
