For the first time since 2012, the Yankees are playing a full postseason series. They beat the Twins in the Wild Card Game two days ago and now get to face the defending AL champion Indians in the best-of-five ALDS. Game One is tonight at 7:30pm ET. Sonny Gray and Trevor Bauer are the scheduled starters. I have some thoughts going into the series, so let’s get to ’em.
1. The Yankees will be at a disadvantage tonight because neither Chad Green nor David Robertson will be available, which is a consequence of Luis Severino getting one out in the Wild Card Game.
