I think it absolutely comes down to if the Yanks can continue to play small ball, good defense, and excellent pitching. Waiting for a home run won’t cut it.

Yankees have unfinished business vs rays. Remember 2020?

That was a very unbiased and professional video - props to you. Appreciate your honesty and humility in your analysis.

The Rays are a maddening team to play.  The do so many things at an elite level

Whoever wins this series will represent the American League in World series,the ideal matchup is the Yankees vs.the Dodgers,and the Brewers vs. Rays.

Yankees played small ball vs BOS, extended at bats, walks, bunted, hit and run, and still had pop, outplayed them in every way.  This team will continue with that strategy and steal game 1.  If that happens, can be a sweep.

Despite my rooting interest against your Yankees, I think someone clowning you over being wrong on a 50/50 prediction would be kind of dumb

Yankeees have the best road record in baseball . Nobody has said this yet

The world is going know who Victor Mesa Jr is after this series

The Yankees have a lower team ERA, a higher run differential, and hit more homeruns than the Rays. Yankees in 4! 🗽💪

Judge has pms

I don’t like Cole for game 1. You want to steal at least a game at Tropicana but id rather take game 1 with cam because he’s got a much better chance of winning. Cole has been giving up a lot of home runs lately and I don’t see him going deep into game 1. You take game 1 and it knocks some wind out of their sails for game 2. Also if you pitch cam game 1 he could be ready to close at home in game 4 or be the pitcher for game 5 back at Tropicana.
I just don’t trust Cole as much as Boone does

Rays in 4

Yankees. Easy. I've been saying all year, the Rays are frauds. Remember how the O's won the division and looked unbeatable in 2024? Then got swept away quickly in the playoffs? Same thing here.

Yankees in 5
