Thanks for the responses, Pirate, Inzane, Bank, and Cash, I appreciate it. GL
Series: I still see these two teams on paper tied in offense, defense, and pitching. But the thing that is obviously separating the two is managing. Roberts has simply been better than Boone. Truth be told I forgot what a bonehead Boone really is, so Roberts doesn't have to be great to beat him. Roberts has made good moves and been aggressive which is how you win championships. Boone has for the most part sat on his ass in the dugout and sipped coffee. His biggest HR hitter has lost all confidence and is actually a liability at the plate right now.
This is when you, as a manager, must make a change to help him. You put him in the #2 spot in front of Soto and tell him to quit swinging for the fences and just get on base to help the team. If you do that, you might just take the pressure off Judge and turn him around in time to actually compete in this series. But I have all confidence in Boone. He will give his batting lineup, that's the one he always uses, to the umpire before the game and then he will go back to sit in the dugout and sip his coffee.
Did you know that is the definition of insanity? Doing the same failing thing over and over but expecting a different result.
I think you have to bet LA as a dog today. LA ML +120 -50/+60. Just coming back to NY doesn't guarantee anything changes.
