    Today’s World Series Observation:

    Asdrubal Cabrera looks like Gollum.

    Are you for real? He has a career 2.76 era in the playoffs. And prior to this start he had given up 1 ER in 22.2 innings if the first 2 rounds.

    A lot of the people are not giving the Nats much of a chance and I'm not sure why. They have one of the top records in baseball since July and have 3 stud pitchers.

    Soto looks Barry Bonds-ish.
    Championships since purchase by John Henry group: Red Sox 4 Yankees 1

    The Red Sox are 8-1 in their last 9 postseason games against the Yankees.

    Last night was a throwback to the 1950's musical damn yankees and it's one memorable tune--you gotta have heart. I say this because the long layoff cost Scherzer his command--he finished with under 60% strikes--but took nothing from his grit because he actually pitched 5 innings and 112 pitches, giving up just 2 runs, and left his bullpen a 3 run lead and a 4 inning gap to fill. They ended up giving up the same number of runs, 2,in 1 fewer inning than Scherzer.

    Then there that was that young phenom, Joe Hardy by name, on the then Washington Senators, who last night was nicely repeated last night by Soto.

    While this Washington team isn't beating the damn yankees, they so far are beating the team that beat the Yankees--after beating the team, the Dodgers, who were the Yankees arch rivals in the 1950's when damn yankees was written and performed.

    But my real point is I was wrong in thinking the 7 day layoff would kill the Nats. It definitely affected Scherzer, but not the rest of the team. Is it also worth mentioning in this era of one game wild card playoffs that a wild card is not only in the WS, but has a real shot at winning?

    This is the team with a heart no less than that of the 2004 Sox.
