00:00Who's your Vladdy Guerrero Best Otani in Battle of Postseason Beasts as Blue Jays even series?

00:07You know what guys? I can honestly care less on who wins this series, but I'll tell you this,

00:12watching the World Series, it makes me want to call up visitcancun.org and have their

00:18representative tell all the Yankees and Mets players and of course team personnel,

00:23get off La Playa, wrap up the vacation and get back into the gym because both of these

00:29New York teams are farther away from making the fall classic than we all realize, especially if

00:35you're going to have to take down one of these teams again to make it. Let's start with the

00:39Dodgers. I understand they're the defending champs and they have the number one payroll in baseball

00:44by far, but the Blue Jays who are, let's be honest, the hottest team in baseball with only the seventh

00:50highest payroll in the majors are making them work for it. It's like David versus Goliath,

00:56but David doesn't have a stone. David's got bats. Let's break this down. The Mets have Juan Soto,

01:02Francisco Lindor, and for now, Pete Alonso, but to be honest, that doesn't stack up against Shohei

01:08Otani, Mookie Betts, and Freddie Freeman. Soto was worth the money in his Mets season debut and he

01:15looked generational at times, but come on y'all, Otani's on another level. And as for the Yankees to

01:21have the top four payroll in the game and get BTA'd by their division rival all year, and that

01:26includes the ALDS is what these kids will call diabolical. So does Cash throw Cash to strengthen

01:32the bullpen or does he bring in more elite bats? And I'm not trying to make this into some sort of

01:38Mets Yankees slander because, you know, the season's over, but it's hard to casually watch this World

01:45Series play out and not look ahead to the 2026 season and what that could look like. For more
