Swing and a miss

The Yankees’ offense is better than the Royals. Its not just the one-two punch of Aaron Judge and Juan Soto either. Giancarlo Stanton and Gleyber Torres and Austin Wells have all put up solid seasons and there are other hitters they have that are not good, but at least have some pop. They led the MLB in home runs, and they were third in runs scored, but they are susceptible to striking out. Their team overall has a slightly below-league-average strikeout rate, but Judge and Stanton in particular, strike out a lot and could be the key to the Royals pulling out a series win.
