Well, throw in Trevino, who was a pleasant surprise, and Cabrera who looked really good for a young kid. And Cortes, of course.
Those guys are a good nucleus for next season. Everybody else, and I mean everybody, is expendable.
But, okay. I can't kick; it's obvious that the Astros are way better than the Yankees.

Agree. More or less they look like the same 2021 season Yanks. They got to get a new approach rather than this high on-base and homerun guys maybe a few more contact hitters would help.
Look at the Phillies lineup as I think they have a good mix of players that have power and can hit for average. They are not going to upset any teams in the playoffs as they are constructed now. It will be interesting to see what the off-season is like.
