For the New York Yankees and all of the other 29 MLB, whoever scores the most runs wins. It sounds like it doesn’t have to be said, and is obvious, the difficultly is getting there, particularly in the postseason. The Yankees seem like they have been losing each postseason now, for years. The team, like the Tampa Bay Rays that pitches better and hits better, will win time after time That is exactly what happened to the Yankees in 2017, 2018, and 2019.
The New York Yankees worked to make that happen this past offseason by going to California during the Winter meetings and procured the services of the best pitcher available in baseball, Gerrit Cole.
