@ You do realize that the best pitchers, can have an off game, right? Not every pitcher, can be perfect all the time, but whatever you need to tell yourself.
Can we stop with this bullshit? The Dodgers won the world series, they didn't win it bc the yankees made mistakes, they took it. They deserve more credit than that.
I think it's a little of Column A and a little of Column B. The Dodgers are a great team who played excellent baseball, but they're also a terrifically run organization who knew where the Yankees' weaknesses were and taught the players how to take advantage of them. The Dodgers' hard work and preparation exposed those weaknesses, and Dodger pitching kept the Yankees' bats from being able to compensate for their defensive failures.
The scouting report that was leaked said it all: "Yankees are talent over fundamentals. Just play a normal game, the Yanks will beat themselves with self-inflicted damage." Honestly, Soto and Stanton seemed like the only two batters that really showed up. Everyone else, especially Judge, just seemed to lose any offensive power in the series, barring some isolated homers or hits. In none of the games did they ever really seem to get a good balanced rally going. Notably, the clincher for the Dodgers featured none of them getting home runs, just good hits and strategic sac flies.
I feel like the rumour start to elevate Soto's number. At the end of the day his agent is Boras, so makes sense. They definitely know that number is crazy but hopefully Soto would get 400 up
@@nagasako7We keep going to the games, we keep spending the money and they keep raising the prices. The fanatics keep paying the bill. If we stop going will they be worth as much?
@@nagasako7not sure I understand the comparison. Has Tampa Bay won a World Series recently? Compared to the Dodgers do they have even half the storied history in their franchise?
Eh, two things can be true at the same time. The Dodgers just knew how to play the game better than the Yankees did. They knew all their weaknesses, particularly in fielding. They exploited said weaknesses and came out on top in the end. Yankees giving up a 5-run lead with their various mishaps was them blowing the Series, and the Dodgers, being the more cohesive team, capitalized on it. That's how the game is played, after all.
As a long time Dodger fan, don’t want him no where near our squad. Dude is an amazing player but would mess up the feng shui of the Dodgers. GO DODGERS!!!
I agree too, there is more players with less money we could pay to complete the lineup and no messing up the team's chemistry, and far more important to resign the HERNANDEZ brothers
@@krystalissoojung5114Kike is a bench bat that won't cost much. The Dodgers need a frontline starter, a shortstop or outfielder, and a righty bat to balance the lineup. It's between Teoscar or Adames for me. If they sign Teoscar back, Edman gets the everyday gig at SS. However, this means Andy Pages plays everyday, in CF, and Lux stays at 2B. Nothing changes. If you sign Adames, you hypothetically replace Teo offensively in the lineup, but upgrade defensively at SS. If Edman goes to 2B, Lux is kicked off the team, so that's another upgrade offensively and defensively. Or Edman moves to CF, which is an upgrade defensively there too over Pages, who you can now stick in LF and platoon with Taylor.
@@dfchang813 I don't see them spending to retain Teoscar, then dropping a bag on Adames, AND splurging for some much needed pitching help. And with them picking up Rojas's option for 2025, the roster crunch is real. Ohtani, Betts, Freeman, Smith, Muncy, Taylor, Lux, Barnes, Rojas, Edman, Pages. That's 11 guys, so you have two spots left. I imagine they give Outman another shot, given prior production, he's cheap, young, and he has years of control. Even at worst, he's a good baserunner and defender. So one spot left. You either bring Kike back for cheap, bring back Teoscar, or sign Adames. On the current roster, Taylor would be most fans choice to get rid of, but there's one year left on that deal, they didn't DFA him before and kept him on the playoffs roster, so I doubt they would now, and no team is picking up that $15M pricetag anyway. Maybe they move on Lux? He has some trade value.
As a lifelong Dodger fan, I pray that they don’t go after selfish Soto. Dodgers have great team chemistry. If anything, the Dodgers need to keep Edman and T Hernandez.
Dodgers have Edman til 2025, so no worries there. But the team definitely needs to retain the services of Walker Buehler (what a beast, even when he's not physically 100%!), Teo, and Treinen. Keekay too, of course (spelling his name properly will trigger youtube's auto-moderation lol). That guy needs to retire a Dodger.

I think 600-700 is insane, but given overbidding with factor in, plus the amount of years, and 500 is very possible. In fact, likely, I'd bet. Keep in mind, he's only 26.

Harper at 13/330, so 26M AAV, signed in 2018. Machado at 11/350, so 31.8M AAV, renegotiated in 2022. Ohtani's deal, although on paper is 10/700, is worth 10/460 in actual value, ie, when he'll get his money. And since that's what Spotrac lists him as, 46M AAV. Expect him to get 12-14 years, at 35-40M AAV. So anywhere from 12/420 to 14/560.
Blue Jays have 700 mil sitting around that was never spent after Ohtani went to the Dodgers. Not saying Soto wants to go north, but they have the money to pay him if he does. They gotta figure out what they are doing with Vlad first though, but Soto and Vlad are good friends. Just sayin
Especially considering that even though he’s certainly happy winning the Yamamoto sweepstakes, Friedman I’m sure would want to get back at both the Mets and Yankees (the two most likely suitors for Soto) for driving his price up
It's not really a choke job when it's the freaking Dodgers giving you a gentlemans sweep. Same thing happened with Celtics and maverick in the NBA. Did mavs choke or did they lose to a beyond stacked team with same result
What have you done for me lately mentality is a mark of so many hateful so-called fans. Juan Soto and Aaron Judge are part of a team, they are not the entire team. Costly mistakes were made by a few team members. Anthony Rizzo, who is now released, was not the only one. Cole zoned out when he could have thrown the ball to first base. He gets to stay, because he is their best starter. Anthony was injured and did not play an entire season. His WS performance hit some serious bumps,that are not going to be overlooked. Hope he gets it together and plays for another team. The Yankees need to strengthen their bullpen and scout for starters that will get the job done. The Dodgers played well and their starters were good!
My Lord! The Dodgers were the better team. Period! The Yankees history reaching World Series is something to still be proud of. This time the Dodgers were better…
The Yankees won’t win another World Series as long as Stanton and Judge are around. Stanton did something in the playoffs and Judge slept through most of the playoffs
If the Mets don't make many changes and add Soto they'll be a great team. But they can't get rid of a bunch of players. The Yankees just aren't good enough on offense. Judge really choked.
No need for excuse's..ive been a die-hard yankees fan over 30+years...we still have 27 titles..yes its been since 2009 but no onr else will ever come close to 27... regardless yankees played like ass. Not hard to see. Blame whomever. Yankees didn't capitalize..shyte happens its sports... but JUDGE IS A DAMN POST SEASON CHOKE JOB...otherwise good for dodgers..and stop making excuse's
Saying the Yankees blew the series implies that the series was competitive at all. They won a single game against the Dodgers' backup bullpen, and got crushed for the other four games. That's not blowing the series or choking, it's barely being there at all. To blow the series you have to already have at least two good wins, Not a single win against the third and fourth stringers.
It’s shameful how the Dodgers pitching isn’t given the credit it deserves. They shut down the Yankees and it’s always portrayed as their hitting ,not showing up!
Soto sitting there thinking a WS win would bring him Ohtani dollars, he saw that disappear in front of his eyes. Btw, he’s delusional about his asking price..
Whoever signs him will overpay and regret. Its easy to hit when all the pressures on Judge and Stantin--when its on Soto's shoulders, will he step up??
Rizzo didn’t charge the ground ball because the second hop spun it to his right. Charging it he wouldn’t have been headed to first. He would have been headed toward the mound. Cole Has to cover. Little league fundamentals.
He sure played better than Ohtani in the Post Season! Ohtani is overrated and much older...wait till Soto is 30 years old in his prime! Ohtani didn't do shit when he was 25 years old!

not rizzo's fault on that play. if he charged the ball it could have eaten him up and went to the outfield. gerrit cole should have been there. if not he needed to tell rizzo and he would have ran to the bag immediately
Yankees suck that’s what it comes down too. Hal is a terrible owner, Cashman is a terrible GM, Boone is a terrible manager, and Judge is no captain or leader of anything and they will not win a single WS while these 4 lead the team.
I don't think Soto goes to the Dodgers, while his bat is undeniable his defense is not great and they already have an equally capable bat at DH. I think they'll do what they can to drive up the cost for whoever gets him, and resign Teoscar Hernandez.
Dodgers won the series 4-1. They did nothing else but dominate. It wasn’t because Yankees let them, it was because the dodgers took it. The AL looked like a juco league all year. Dodgers were always going to win. Give LA more credit. It wasn’t anyone’s game, it was always LA’s.
Padres had the best series against the Dodgers this postseason. Only team to win two consecutive games and forced Dodgers into elimination. Supposedly a story came out saying Soto was going to stay on the Padres until the owner died, I think even Boras confirmed this.
Soto is nothing but a bat. He has subpar defense. He’s selling himself at a price higher than what he’s worth. A player needs to have both offense and defensive skills. Offense, yes defense below average.
It’s not sad. He’s about to get paid. All the big teams are going to want him and significantly raise his price. And a good chance he’ll go to a real contender. He’s also young. He’ll get another ring.
If Juan Soto goes full KD and decides to go back west to play in LA, that would be incredibly hilarious. He just watched them celebrate in Yankee Stadium. And clearly the Dodgers will be contending every year for the foreseeable future. You never know.
It's insane how set up the Dodgers are. Their core is locked in. Ohtani is under contract until 2033. Yamamoto is under contract until 2035. Glasnow is under contract until 2028. Betts is under contract until 2032. Freeman is under contract until 2027. Smith is under contract until 2034.
@@greatnessdelton1381they are also a danger to sign any top flight free agent any offseason because of Shohei insane deferment. I would pass on Soto. You can obtain 80% of his offensive production for less than half the price. Money saved can be spent on Adames, resigning Teo, maybe going after Fried or Corbin. When you have 3 hall of gamers/MVP at the top of the line up you have lots of flexibility.
Either way he’s going to get overpaid, as he gets older he’ll get slower and become a DH. He’s not going to be a long term positional player and he’s had slumps. The Yankees should focus on balancing their team, and get rid of Cashman and Boone. Soto shouldn’t be a priority as he’s fallen into thinking he’s worth Ohtani money when all he brings is a bat.
It was a foregone conclusion that the Dodgers were going to win the WS. No amount of runs by the Yankees in game 5 was going to change that! The far better team won & in the process showed the world just how weak a team the Yankees really are!

Especially considering that even though he’s certainly happy winning the Yamamoto sweepstakes, Friedman I’m sure would want to get back at both the Mets and Yankees (the two most likely suitors for Soto) for driving his price up
That catcher's interference was the most overlooked part of the whole thing
It's not really a choke job when it's the freaking Dodgers giving you a gentlemans sweep. Same thing happened with Celtics and maverick in the NBA. Did mavs choke or did they lose to a beyond stacked team with same result
What have you done for me lately mentality is a mark of so many hateful so-called fans.
Juan Soto and Aaron Judge are part of a team, they are not the entire team.
Costly mistakes were made by a few team members. Anthony Rizzo, who is now released, was not the only one. Cole zoned out when he could have thrown the ball to first base. He gets to stay, because he is their best starter. Anthony was injured and did not play an entire season. His WS performance hit some serious bumps,that are not going to be overlooked. Hope he gets it together and plays for another team.
The Yankees need to strengthen their bullpen and scout for starters that will get the job done.
The Dodgers played well and their starters were good!
As a 67 year Yankees fan, it is really sad. The Yankees turned into little leaguers, especially in the 5th inning.
Even the little leaguers can play better than the yanks
He will never go to the Dodgers. He doesn't want to be on the same team as Ohtani.
Post interview with Soto showed his narcissistic tendencies 😂
CASH 💵 🔥
Lmao... Ya... really sad, the dude made over 31 million dollars this year... I'm sure him and his GF won't be able to get over it...
DRAMA QUEEN AND A CLUBHOUSE CANCER...I HOPE THE STANKEES SIGN HIM TO 900 MILLION...CANT FEILD HIS POSITION EITHER...why am I yelling?
Drama queen while he carried the best player on the yankees 💀L bait
😂😂😂stankees, the entire eastcoast avoids that nickname like crazy
😂😂😂
Because you don't know shit!
Maybe the Sacramento A’s can offer 2 million a year to make him the highest salary player on this minor league team
I assume the Mets will offer the most to Soto. The Dodgers are bluffing on Soto.
My Lord! The Dodgers were the better team. Period!
The Yankees history reaching World Series is something to still be proud of. This time the Dodgers were better…
Watching the Yankees lose is so much more rewarding than watching the Dodgers win.
He should prove to all of us that he loves the game, He's not in it for the money and just become a Seattle Mariner to help us out 😁
He loves the game. But he loves money even more 😂.
@@yaniyuhara8165 LOL .... Its Just a Dream 🤣🤣🤣
@@XBOXShawn12thman It’s better than nightmares, which might possibly be if Mariners are to pursue Soto seriously. 😅
@@yaniyuhara8165 OMG ... The Mariners are broke!!! Theres NO WAY!!! 🤣🤣🤣
The Yankees won’t win another World Series as long as Stanton and Judge are around. Stanton did something in the playoffs and Judge slept through most of the playoffs
Stanton carried the team lol
He was thinking ohtani got all my dodger money.😂😂😂
If the Mets don't make many changes and add Soto they'll be a great team. But they can't get rid of a bunch of players. The Yankees just aren't good enough on offense. Judge really choked.
The Mets kinda their bats went cold in the nlcs
There bats were good for two games every other one they were asleep
@@AlooxSigma-n4e but could score runs with risp in game 6 of the nlcs and it was a bullpen game buhler or Yamamoto would’ve start game 7
Hell nah, they were relying on miracle saves the whole way through man 😂
The irony is in the fact that people used to complain about the Yankees buying championships.
Don’t blame him, he did his part and delivered. The team let him down.
The moment when Juan Soto realized they weren’t going to get “participation trophies” after they got their butts handed to them.
No need for excuse's..ive been a die-hard yankees fan over 30+years...we still have 27 titles..yes its been since 2009 but no onr else will ever come close to 27... regardless yankees played like ass. Not hard to see. Blame whomever. Yankees didn't capitalize..shyte happens its sports... but JUDGE IS A DAMN POST SEASON CHOKE JOB...otherwise good for dodgers..and stop making excuse's
Soto just wants those teams to up the bidding.
WORLD CHAMPION DODGERS! 😁🥳✌🥂💪🎉🎉🎊🏆
Soto with the Dodgers is the right fit
He deserves it he’s arguably the best player on the team Mlb champion he’s still young he deserves every penny after going to another World Series
Saying the Yankees blew the series implies that the series was competitive at all. They won a single game against the Dodgers' backup bullpen, and got crushed for the other four games. That's not blowing the series or choking, it's barely being there at all.
To blow the series you have to already have at least two good wins, Not a single win against the third and fourth stringers.
Thinking better go to LA for ultimate goal another world series win. Since 19, he is still hungry. Come to La man
It’s shameful how the Dodgers pitching isn’t given the credit it deserves. They shut down the Yankees and it’s always portrayed as their hitting ,not showing up!
Soto sitting there thinking a WS win would bring him Ohtani dollars, he saw that disappear in front of his eyes. Btw, he’s delusional about his asking price..
Whoever signs him will overpay and regret. Its easy to hit when all the pressures on Judge and Stantin--when its on Soto's shoulders, will he step up??
He has already shown that he can. He did in Washington. He has been a very consistent bat his entire short career.
Rizzo didn’t charge the ground ball because the second hop spun it to his right. Charging it he wouldn’t have been headed to first. He would have been headed toward the mound. Cole Has to cover. Little league fundamentals.
It’s not an individual game it’s a team game as the Dodgers showed.
Props to the guy who made the scouting report on the Yankees for the dodgers bro just said make them play ball and they will eat themselves up
There's nothing sad about making more money than 99.9% of the population on the planet.
That's highly questionable.
@@qazymansomeone with a cross defending the rich? Go away troll
@@qazymanHow is it questionable
$600 million. lol who does he think he is? Shohei Ohtani?
He sure played better than Ohtani in the Post Season! Ohtani is overrated and much older...wait till Soto is 30 years old in his prime! Ohtani didn't do shit when he was 25 years old!
@@mattschultz5155 Wouldn't call the ONLY player in the 50/50 club overrated. He just peak later than Soto.
Who's to say Soto will still be great at 30? He could be trash by then. Many things can happen, like injuries
@@truthiscensored You want to talk crap about Soto and compare him to Shohei and say Shohei is better. But we don't know if your comment is true. Soto is playing baseball better than him at the same age. What if Soto hits 75 home runs when he's 30? What are you going to say then?
I think the SF Giants could make a push so they can stay relivent. They lost our on Otani last year and Judge the year before.
I feel like LAD want Yankees to resign him at $600m. Basically NYY Mike Trout. 😅
@@nagasako7 Mike Trout seems to be a nice guy. I am glad that you at least didn’t bring up name of Rendon in comparison because if you did, it would have been a true disaster for Yankees 😂
The dodgers can never be as good a franchise as the Yankees because they need a lot more world series trophies
Soto? $600 million? Does he pitch as well?
Soto sitting there thinking about the loot coming his way soon. Question is, will he go to a serious tittle contender or choose the latter. Dodgers don't need him. Keep the core players and pick up an arm and 3B. Lets go again in 2025
not rizzo's fault on that play. if he charged the ball it could have eaten him up and went to the outfield. gerrit cole should have been there. if not he needed to tell rizzo and he would have ran to the bag immediately
Rumors say, he's still waiting there for his turn to hit next.
Apparently losing 4-1 is now a close run thing……(?)
After his shot performance I. The World Series he ain’t getting anywhere near that
The yankees were not even close to a cohesive unit. And on top mentally prepared to win the big one. Theres nothing sad about that
Yankees suck that’s what it comes down too. Hal is a terrible owner, Cashman is a terrible GM, Boone is a terrible manager, and Judge is no captain or leader of anything and they will not win a single WS while these 4 lead the team.
I don't think Soto goes to the Dodgers, while his bat is undeniable his defense is not great and they already have an equally capable bat at DH. I think they'll do what they can to drive up the cost for whoever gets him, and resign Teoscar Hernandez.
Oh yeah…I can’t stop crying for the Yankees. I’m absolutely exhausted from the lack of sleep I’ve experienced since game 5.😮
Dodger scouting said run the bases aggressively and Yanks will beat themselves. In other words make them play baseball
Dodgers won the series 4-1. They did nothing else but dominate. It wasn’t because Yankees let them, it was because the dodgers took it. The AL looked like a juco league all year. Dodgers were always going to win. Give LA more credit. It wasn’t anyone’s game, it was always LA’s.
He ahould just go back to the Padres.
Padres had the best series against the Dodgers this postseason. Only team to win two consecutive games and forced Dodgers into elimination. Supposedly a story came out saying Soto was going to stay on the Padres until the owner died, I think even Boras confirmed this.
He looks good in that Dodgers uniform.😂
Dodgers should stay clear of Soto. Save the money for edman, Teo, and walker!
No sympathy ever for Yankees. Mercenary team and you saw what their fans did
This lineup was built on drafts and trades so this take is 20 years old
It wasn't over till Fat Joe sings 😂
How many times has a team come back from 0-3 to win a World Series? All right then
Soto is nothing but a bat. He has subpar defense. He’s selling himself at a price higher than what he’s worth. A player needs to have both offense and defensive skills. Offense, yes defense below average.
It isn’t just the better team won; the MUCH better team won.
Make more videos on the Dodgers, I can't get enough 😂😂😂
You dig your own hole the Dodgers are the only ones out😊
He's going to be reunited with former teammates Bryce and Trea
He definitely doesn't want any more part of that
It’s not sad. He’s about to get paid. All the big teams are going to want him and significantly raise his price. And a good chance he’ll go to a real contender. He’s also young. He’ll get another ring.
If Juan Soto goes full KD and decides to go back west to play in LA, that would be incredibly hilarious. He just watched them celebrate in Yankee Stadium. And clearly the Dodgers will be contending every year for the foreseeable future. You never know.
It's insane how set up the Dodgers are. Their core is locked in.
Ohtani is under contract until 2033.
Yamamoto is under contract until 2035.
Glasnow is under contract until 2028.
Betts is under contract until 2032.
Freeman is under contract until 2027.
Smith is under contract until 2034.
@@greatnessdelton1381they are also a danger to sign any top flight free agent any offseason because of Shohei insane deferment. I would pass on Soto. You can obtain 80% of his offensive production for less than half the price. Money saved can be spent on Adames, resigning Teo, maybe going after Fried or Corbin. When you have 3 hall of gamers/MVP at the top of the line up you have lots of flexibility.
@@dfchang813 Agreed. Besides, ROF is locked by Mookie. We don’t need Soto.
As a dodyer fan, I hope he doesnt join them. In fact, go join the Padres so we can have something to really look forward to.
@@Einhander49 Agreed. NO to SOTO for our Dodgers. But I don’t think Padres don’t want Soto, either. He got traded out for a reason.
Stroman should definitely NOT be getting paid 18 mill he was absolutely atrocious this season
He can only hit and have below average defense and certainly can not pitch, so he isn't worth 700M. Probably 500M for 14 years.
Yes, let's say NY blew their lead in this game, but not to forget the 3 games they were soundly beaten by LA.
The first game was a lucky grandslam by freeman.
It's not sad. He already has one ring, he'll be just fine.
Either way he’s going to get overpaid, as he gets older he’ll get slower and become a DH. He’s not going to be a long term positional player and he’s had slumps. The Yankees should focus on balancing their team, and get rid of Cashman and Boone. Soto shouldn’t be a priority as he’s fallen into thinking he’s worth Ohtani money when all he brings is a bat.
It was a foregone conclusion that the Dodgers were going to win the WS. No amount of runs by the Yankees in game 5 was going to change that! The far better team won & in the process showed the world just how weak a team the Yankees really are!
Soto Defense is not great. Asking alot of money.
