Who's knocking on the Yankees' door in 2026?

So who are you, as a Yankee fan, rooting for or are you just ignoring this World Series?

I'd like to see Toronto dethrone the Dodgers, myself.

Is it bad that I'm rooting for a division rival, Vlad Jr., and Springer?

At least maybe I can use the excuse that their closer went to the same high school as my kids.

My son is a Blue Jays fan so I'm rooting for them. They have been killing my wallet lately though with Topps Now cards.

I told him next year, he's starting to pay half for each card.

At least he bought his own Bo Bichette World Series jersey.

I'm just rooting for Ohtani. Cards, MLB, everything prospers when he plays well.

I have Vlad and Ohtani cards so I'm hedged. I guess Tor, but I really don't like them. I can't root for the dodgers although if they keep buying ws maybe it will force the league to change things.

I like good baseball. If the Dodgers dog walk the Jays, I will be disappointed.

Topps Living Set for this week has a Trent Grisham card. Just in time for him to no longer be a Yankee.

I’m going as a Yankee for Halloween this year and needed my costume to look authentic

Who bought it? If it was fanatics they'll cut it up and put it on a card.

They would need Judge behind Judge!

But Stanton isnt a pushover..

Mets Lose Coach to Yankees After Just One Season

Has anyone been fired yet???

JRX · 10-27-2025, 08:50 AM

I hope Cashman is watching and learns you can have hitters that make contact and not just swing for the fences. You know, like all the teams from the 90s that won ws.

Yankees hit just 2 HRs in the 1996 World Series, Bernie and Leyritz.

After getting demolished in the first 2 games at home I thought they were done for. No wonder John Smoltz still holds it against them.

A timely home run or 2 helps but I would still rather have a well balanced attack.

And it’s someone who has already been in the Yankees system before. Oh boy.

Imagine how many swatches they could make and how many products it would push. There are some jerseys that should be left alone but I can understand why they do it.

I think they will resign him but I think this past year was a fluke and he will not come close to that many home runs again.

I was hoping for a competitive series and although tied at 1 game apiece the games haven’t really had much drama yet, hopefully that changes tonight.

Same here card wise but with the pipeline the Dodgers have to the Japanese league nothing will change until they limit the number of Japanese players any one team can sign.

At first I was rooting for the Dodgers to keep the title in America, but then I realized if Toronto won the Yankees would still be the last team to have repeat titles 98,99,2000. At this point it really doesn’t matter.

Game 2 gave your wallet a break and I am glad for your son’s sake that Bo is actually getting playing time.
