00:00The Yankees, they just clinched the playoff spot.

00:02They still have a chance to win the ALEs, their game back, the Blue Jays.

00:05What's your assessment of this Yankees team,

00:07and how far do you think that they can go in October?

00:11Listen, I mean, I think, you know, one thing that they have

00:13is they have the veteran leadership, you know,

00:17starting with Aaron Jones and Giancarlo Stanton in there.

00:19And I know they missed their call, but, you know,

00:22when you get to crunch time in the playoff, anything can happen.

00:27You know, you have 12 teams that are going to get into the postseason this year,

00:32and it's like flipping a coin.

00:33Anybody can get hot and it happens.

00:35Sometimes, you know, I've been in teams that win 100 games,

00:38and we get knocked out in the first round.

00:41And then you got – I've been in all the teams that we had 88 wins,

00:44and we end up winning a World Series when nobody was expecting us to win it.

00:47So I think, you know, they have the team to go way far.

00:52I think the Mets, I know they're struggling over the last couple of weeks,

00:56but I think they're going to find a way to get in.

00:58That was a big win last night for them.

01:01So I think they have a really good team.

01:04Obviously, you got the Dodgers.

01:06They're always great, and they're struggling with some of their pitching.

01:09But, I mean, with that offense, you know,

01:12the Dodgers are going to be a tough test once again.

01:15But, I mean, I don't have a team really, and I should,

01:19but I don't have a team to say, man, this team has a really good chance.

01:24When you look at overall, if you want to pick a team,

01:28you go always for the best record.

01:29I think the Milwaukee Brewers – what Milwaukee is doing,

01:33our Milwaukee, the year that they're having,

01:35I mean, they're a team that can be really, really dangerous in the postseason

01:41because they have the pitching.

01:43They got the bullpen.

01:44They played again the right way.

01:45They got a great manager on Pat Murphy who's leading them, you know,

01:49to win the Central.

01:52So I think that's a team that's really complete.

01:58But at the end of the day, man, I mean, they can go cold

02:01and get them towel in the first round.

02:04So hopefully that doesn't happen, you know.

02:06But it's just really hard, you know.

02:08So I think at the end of the day,

02:09whoever finished this last four games of the season really hot

02:13and able to carry into the postseason,

02:15I think that has the better chance of winning the World Series

02:19and go all the way in October.
