Great pitching, clutch hitting, and no banging trash cans!

Even feign trying.

(10,464 posts)3. It was pretty good from my perspective
Astros have some very good pitching and proved it thru the year. Kinda like the football analogy: good defense beats a good offense; good pitching beats good hitting. Yankees have a great offense, but great pitching can shut them down. And did. Astros beat the Yanks 9 of 11 games this season plus postseason. That just doesn't happen independent of everything.
I wonder how different the Yanks will look next year. Will they keep Judge thru free agency?
