00:00where the Yankees go down like absolute dogs,
00:03including in the bottom of the ninth
00:04as Walker Buehler comes on.
00:06And I had a couple of people texting me like,
00:07wow, I can't believe Walker Buehler's coming on.
00:09Like, what a move by Dave Roberts.
00:10That's a terrible move.
00:12I'm thinking, really?
00:14He's gonna strike, he's about to strike out the side.
00:16It's gonna be the easiest half inning
00:17of Walker Buehler's life.
00:18And I guess it's fitting that Alex Verdugo,
00:20who is brutal for much of the season for the Yankees,
00:23is the final at bat after Austin Wells
00:25is just like flailing at pitches like an idiot.
00:28And Verdugo, of course, strikes out
00:29and the Dodgers are World Series champions.
00:33And it's really awful.
00:35You know what else is awful?
00:36And I know no one wants to hear this.
00:38Like, rooting for the Yankees in this era is not even fun.
00:43I don't even enjoy it.
00:45And you might be listening and watching this,
00:46and maybe you're a Pirates fan.
00:48Like, Bill Zimmerman on our show is a White Sox fan.
00:50His team just lost a billion games in the regular season.
00:52Like, maybe you're a fan of a team that hasn't won ever.
00:55Maybe you're a Guardians fan.
00:56You've never seen your team win a championship.
00:58I totally understand that.
01:00And you look at me as a Yankee fan.
01:01I've seen five World Series championships.
01:02I saw one 15 years ago in 2009.
01:05And you look at me as a spoiled brat,
01:07and I totally get it.
01:08Like, I really do.
01:09I really understand it.
01:11But for Yankee fans that have been watching
01:13for the past 15 years,
01:15and have seen how this has consistently gone,
01:18to not just lose, but to be embarrassed
01:21on the biggest stages.
01:23Like, I don't care about the ALDS against Kansas City.
01:27I don't care about the ALCS
01:29against the Cleveland Guardians.
01:31Honestly, I wish they had lost.
01:35I wish they had lost to Kansas City.
01:37Because if they had lost to Kansas City,
01:38maybe they would have been so ashamed
01:41that Hal Steinbrenner would have been
01:42so at the trust fund baby,
01:43would have been so ashamed
01:44that he would have made some type of move.
01:46Instead, it's already been announced
01:48that Aaron Boone's coming back in 2025.
01:50And of course, Supreme Court Justice Cashman will be back,
01:53has the job until death.
01:55So here's the betting takeaway from last night.
01:59BetMGM already has the markets open
02:01for next year's World Series champion.
02:03The Dodgers are the favorites, plus 400.
02:05They'll probably sign Juan Soto.
02:07The Dodgers should be the favorites.
02:08The Yankees and the Braves are tied
02:10for the second choice at plus 800.
02:13Let me tell you all something.
02:15When I say this, like, it should matter to people.
02:18The 2025 New York Yankees will be managed by Aaron Boone,
02:22in general managed by Brian Cashman.
02:250% chance of winning the World Series.
02:29Zero.
02:29So the team that's the second choice in the market
02:32is at zero.
02:34Place your early bets accordingly.
