Why the Yankees will win the World Series and why they will probably not

The 2024 Yankees the team that is infuriating to watch.

I know baseball fans. You are like come be a fan of my team. See with the Yankees I could handle if they were bad or had some injuries. They are just not well managed.

Why they could win it all:

Cole, Rodon, and Gil all pitch at their top levels and make them a shutdown trio.

Cortes in the bullpen and possible Schmidt become a dominate playoff pair and then they bring in Kahlne to close out games

The offense lead by Judge, Soto and Jazz are a monster and as a whole hums along.

While the above is a pipe dream:

Can Cole stay healthy? Will Rodon pitch well in the playoffs? Is Gil going to even be a starter and they use Stroman instead.

Clay freakin Holmes. DO NOT LET HIM CLOSE GAMES!
Seriously no Holmes. Oh, why do you bring him in? It is like the Boone is like: "well the game is close so might as well bring in Clay, we don't want to get too far ahead in the standings."

I think a team needs chemistry more than people think.
