The NYer in me would love that but the baseball fan in me wants the most storied, famous rivalry in baseball history with the Dodgers. This would be a throwback to the 1950s when both teams were loaded with power hitters. Which was an all NY series in those days. The original Subway Series. But also it's not often you get the chance for the two biggest names in the game to meet for a championship and you'd get that with Judge and Ohtani.
Btw, I think Cleveland would have won yesterday if Vogt would have gone to the bullpen instead of leaving the starter in against Stanton. That's just basic Managing 101. Elimination game, you're up two runs, and your starter is facing the hottest hitter in the series for the third time in the game. You go to the bullpen. That's why they're there. Can't have that misplaced loyalty of oh well he got us here so I'm just going to ride him. Gotta manage with your brain, not your heart. There's moments for the heart, but that wasn't it.
