After a Game Six loss to the Astros, we’re left with countless moments fans will remember as reasons the Yankees lost. They can go as far back as the Yankees’ refusal to give up elite prospect talent to acquire Gerrit Cole before the 2018 season, or the failure to acquire anything at the 2019 trade deadline.
More specifically, one can point to the endless missed opportunities across the ALCS. Outside of Game One, every game seemed close, and the Yankees had chances to win time after time. Those lost chances may haunt the team and their fans for years to come.
