Judge mentioned the brutal […]
Mark Leiter Jr.’s first day back with Yankees was a postseason adventure
CLEVELAND — The Yankees traded Mark Leiter Jr. in July with October in mind. However, the right-hander spent time watching the ALDS, was left off the roster, and started in the same position in the ALCS. “That's not my choice,” Reiter said after Friday's 8-6 ALCS Game 4 win over Cleveland. “When you have an […]

Mets couldn’t match moment in rare October flop this postseason
The capacity crowd was animated and excited at the Mets' first National League Championship Series game at Citi Field in nearly a decade. The Mets failed to adequately reward household electricity.

Shohei Ohtani’s unusual postseason results lead to ‘comical’ Dodgers suggestion
The Dodgers haven't changed anything about Shohei Ohtani. The front-runner for National League MVP has put up interesting numbers this postseason, going 6-for-8 with runners on base and 0-for-19 with bases empty, as the Dodgers hold on to the evenly matched National League one game at a time. With the Mets as they prepare for […]
Francisco Alvarez has been the Mets’ missing postseason threat
Mets manager Carlos Mendoza sat on a podium at Citi Field and expressed confidence that Francisco Alvarez would return to form in the postseason. So far, nothing like that has happened.

Gerrit Cole’s postseason has been a worrying Yankees rollercoaster
Unstable, dominant, unstable. These are Gerrit Cole's three postseason starts. So far, it's been good enough for the Yankees. That streak continued Tuesday night, thanks to more strong work from the bullpen, as the Yankees defeated the Guardians 6-3 in the Bronx to take a 2-0 lead in the ALCS. But this wasn't Cole at […]
An unleashed Aaron Judge could put an end to all this Yankees’ postseason drama
Stephen Vogt made the right choice. It was still great though. Still, it was a little insulting, at least to Aaron Judge. The Guardians' manager had decided to treat Game 2 of the ALCS as close to an elimination as possible and actively steer the team in that direction. So by the time the second […]
