The layoff between the end of the regular season and the start of the postseason feels extra long this season because there’s no wild-card game to prepare and worry about and because September was a formality for the Yankees. I’m not complaining since I’m ecstatic the Yankees have finally avoided the wild-card game, but I’m ready for Game 1.
Chris Shearn of YES Network joined me to talk about feeling confident about the Yankees heading into the playoffs, why the Yankees have the best possible ALDS opponent, what the lineup and rotation should be, trusting Aaron Boone in the postseason and what the Yankees have to do for this season to be considered successful.
