I will say this about Shohei. When Mookie was hurt, and when Freddie had his family issues, Shohei was the one constant. It seemed like he waited to slump a little until those guys got back at times. There were times when guys were hitting clean-up for the Dodgers who weren't Big League players. They survived the injuries because of him. In the World Series, judging from his postgame interview, he was really hurt, but the organization thought he was worth the lineup spot just to make the Yankees pitchers work. I missed watching two Dodgers games all season. That is it. This team might not have made the postseason without him.
Fully agreed, don't think ohtani will get credit for the small things, presence for the team, in the line up presence, and that double off the wall in game 1 to allow mookie to hit him in to tie it
couldn't believe the team won, Mookie & Freddie injured during the year, not enough starting pitchers... So happy for them esp Shohei who carried the team and gave his all, he finally get that trophy after 7 years
Smart and classy move by Mookie by not instigating the fans and Yankees players to get them fired and fueled up at Yankee Stadium UNLIKE Padres thugs and clowns , Machado🙃 Tatis and Profar….
@@mattamatic1 the goal post is always going to move in regards to the Dodgers. They spent the most money, it was a short season yet they’re in the conversation every single year. People make it sound like the success was a flash in the pan. This isn’t the Rangers we’re talking about.
Mad love to the squad for ALL the content. My best reason for not needing ESPN anymore. It’s going to be the most loaded and stressful free agent off season, so enjoy the break and we’ll be ready for winter meetings
No your argument is the silly one. 2020 has a massive asterisk because baseball is a marathon and there literally was no marathon in 2020. They won a different title than all other teams in history.
@@ryanolson2308 do teams win their division during a full season and get knocked out in divisional series? Did the 2020 playoffs get shortened more than any other season? Think about it, Ryan. Best wishes man
I can explain it to you. The Yankees are awful in fundamental plays while the Dodgers are quite good at that. That's all, Cole leaves his arm on the game and the team just threw those games away.
Absolutely painful way for it to end. You honestly could make the argument that if the Yankees held on in Game 1 and tonight here in Game 5, the Yankees season would be still be alive headed to L.A up 3-2 for a Game 6. Instead the Dodgers took advantage of every mistake the Yankees made and came out on top in the end. GG Dodgers😢
He did do a great job, I don't like Cole but he really pitched well, one mental mistake will cost you every player knows that. Him going back out and finishing 2 more innings was impressive and also shows how much the yankees needed him to do everything, instead of be a team it's more of a one man show in new York, but that's how it usually goes for them alot of ego players and Homer hitters and "super stars" playing individually not as a team like the dodgers. You can really see that difference here
Dodger fan here. I felt the Dodgers won the World Series when they beat the Padres. That was the toughest series. It was a short one which made it harder.
2024 World Series more fugazi than 2020. At least 2020 playoff run was tough. This 2024 playoff was ez af since game 4 of the nlds. Nice breezy stroll through New York
Sloppy and exciting game by both teams. Dodgers showed the grit and capitalized on Yankees errors. Series was a lot closer than 4-1. Dodgers should be much stronger next season with the return of all the injured pitching.
@@nonay220 cashman has to get to work & above all bring back Soto , the Yankees are in a good spot & I do see them winning rings in the judge era but they’ve gotta move with even more urgency now judge turns 33 in April , retain Soto so he can be the future of the team along with a young volpe & Austin wells & keep adding to the team
Yankees were an embarrassment. Terrible fundamentals, complete lack of mental discipline/focus under Boone. Should have won games 1 & 5. They will portray this season as a success but, as good and deserving as LA are, the Yankees threw it away. Can't play defence, can't run the bases, no situational hitting.
All I will say is Kratz said nobody saw this coming, but in reality every Yankee fan saw this coming and was no surprised by this. This has been a problem for years and they do not make the necessary changes to correct it. Hopefully this embarrassment makes them wake up and realize things are not working. However, in reality they will think we made it to the World Series so we are on track 🤦♂
2020 had a major asterisk and anyone who says otherwise simply doesn’t understand baseball. Baseball is a marathon and they literally played only 60 games. It’s not the same thing and it’s not comparable to every single other World Series winner in history. I’ve got nothing against the dodgers but this is just obvious fact
Yankees have lost accountability for players as a whole for years. Dodgers stars lead by example, one can't fk around when leaders work for basic little things. Dodgers said after last year 2023 to Muncy that he does't play 3rd if defense does't get better and then helped him. From -8 OAA to 0. Yanks are always just defending players and not demanding anything. Yanks locker room is like NBA teams, players run the st. Boone was always a silly hire and did't earn it in anyway manager should. Ofcourse Cashman wanted just yes man so he can decide every little decision. Cashman close to 10years now going half the team playing out of position. Looking at prospect runway and how many turn to stars in pinstripes, I feel Cashman is bribing lot of people to get those top evalutions for Yanks prospects. FO's count them as currency so easy way to cheat in "results". Yanks also never play or trade prospects at the right time =).
Shout out to Doc Roberts. Unfortunately, I have to admit he is one of the best managers in the league. Still don't know if I trust him completely. Needs to win a couple more before I completely eat crow
@pkpnyt4711 Yes, him taking Belli and Joc out of the 2018 World Series lineup and blowing the first round in 2019 by bringing in Kershaw will always piss me off. They were on their way to blowing this game, too. Good manager, but yea, he has to win one or two more before I consider him one of the greats
That was the greatest managed game of all time, not sure what else you want including 2 rings and a manager that helps create the culture in that locker room that got them to never give up, dude is the best manager I have seen in my lifetime
This logic that just because the owner of a team is a billionaire he should just spend whatever to get a good team is ridiculous you can only spend based on how much the team makes that’s business 101 if a small market team spends a ridiculous amount of money to get a good team they’re going to lose money no matter how good the team is because they’re in a small market they won’t make the money back like the yanks and dodgers do
He had a huge hit off the wall that helped tie the game in game 1 so his team could win, that was monstrous and over shadowed, he had a heavy presence in the line up as well which alot of people won't understand, dude put alot of heart to play with his shoulder, he kept dropping that back shoulder after when he was swinging and you could tell it really caused him to not get that big hit. But he was a big team player can't take that away from him, he found ways on base and if you wanna compare look at judge and his play, yikes no one cares about a single homerun when you can't hit the rest of the time or get on base, only strike out and not catch routine fly balls
I will say this about Shohei. When Mookie was hurt, and when Freddie had his family issues, Shohei was the one constant. It seemed like he waited to slump a little until those guys got back at times.

Totally agree !! 👍👍

Totally agreed, I love Shohei !!!
He and Tesocar carried us through the regular season ; without them, we wouldn't have made it to the playoffs or we wouldve been a wilcard team
couldn't believe the team won, Mookie & Freddie injured during the year, not enough starting pitchers... So happy for them esp Shohei who carried the team and gave his all, he finally get that trophy after 7 years
The Dodgers will be even better next year.
But hopefully, they'll be equally as cohesive a team because we see that that's what wins championships.
Nobody believed in the Dodgers. They all picked Padres or Phillies.
And Mets
@@Sonicifyouwanit And crooked Yankees
Ironically, only Todd picked them, Mr. Yankee.😂

Your 2024 World Series Champion Los Angeles Dodgers! Via Padres, Mets, Yankees!
It’s insane to say 2020 was questionable but say Astros 2017 counts!
I GUESS CHEATERS GET A PASS ON THIS SHOW 🤷♂️
Last I checked, all mlb teams played for that series. Two made it, one lost it, and one won it .

Right lol F what MFs say that’s #2 for Dave!! 👌
There was nothing wrong with 2020, 2018 or 2017. Still complaining about these series is a cope. Those 3 teams were superior those years.
Agreed. The WS won because of Ohtani. He was the domino effect and had the Dodgers believing they would win it. Being the best player does that.
Mad love to the squad for ALL the content. My best reason for not needing ESPN anymore. It’s going to be the most loaded and stressful free agent off season, so enjoy the break and we’ll be ready for winter meetings
2020 definitely counts, rings are won in the playoffs
Major asterisk. Marathon sport with no marathon is objectively not comparable to all other titles in history
Kratz is on cloud 45 got damnnnn lolol
Gotta bee 🐝
The 2020 argument is silly. Did the rest of the mlb teams not have an opportunity to win that year?
Fans wanna feel like they make a difference

Great show you guys!!
TEO. Come ❤
Looked like Cole didn't cover 1st base in the 1st inning either, but Rizzo got the out.
Yep, I saw that too.
Yep Cole mentally collapsed and couldn't do the most fundamental play for a pitcher
@@20marzboy Twice!!
@@kevinray9943 twice? When was the second time?
love this fucking show! yall aint biased like other shows respect!!
You guys didn’t mention Walker Buehler for the rotation next year. Shame on you, especially after his World Series performances.
Buehler is a FA
Yankees will be kicking themselves over Game 1 and Game 5 for a long long time!
Didn't show up?? Uh, are you unaware that Ohtani was playing injured in the WS?? Most players wouldn't have been playing at all.
He also had that massive double to help tie the game in game 1 for Freddie to do what he did, without that hit they lose game 1
Thank you guys for the season. 2024 dodgers champs🎉 take that mickey mouse bullshit away from any talk now.
Never forget 2024, New York took 5 Ls this series
The Curse of FatJoe
Absolutely painful way for it to end. You honestly could make the argument that if the Yankees held on in Game 1 and tonight here in Game 5, the Yankees season would be still be alive headed to L.A up 3-2 for a Game 6. Instead the Dodgers took advantage of every mistake the Yankees made and came out on top in the end. GG Dodgers😢
Woulda Shoulda Coulda.
Gerrit Cole was awesome on G1 and dominant on G4. Both lost due to poor defense and management. 😢
Game 1 and game 5
All Cole had to do was cover 1st base like he should. That's a basic fundamental. He choked, period in this game.
He did do a great job, I don't like Cole but he really pitched well, one mental mistake will cost you every player knows that. Him going back out and finishing 2 more innings was impressive and also shows how much the yankees needed him to do everything, instead of be a team it's more of a one man show in new York, but that's how it usually goes for them alot of ego players and Homer hitters and "super stars" playing individually not as a team like the dodgers.

As a lifelong Yankees fan, it's weird to be the e underdog and pittied.
Kratz is drunk or high for sure!
Dodger fan here. I felt the Dodgers won the World Series when they beat the Padres. That was the toughest series. It was a short one which made it harder.
Is judge the new Bill Buckner? Thoughts?
I don’t believe Cole realized the English on that ground ball to Rizzo. Still should have covered first.
Usually A.J is dodger hater but he did predict Dodgers in 6 just in 5 instead..
