The Post's experts make ALCS tips

Jon Heyman

The Guardians' dominant bullpen will cause some problems for the Yankees. But over the course of a long series, it all comes down to starting pitching, and that's where the Yankees have the edge – offensively too.

The Guardians are lively enough that they can keep up with the Yankees and even steal a few. But they just aren't scoring enough to inspire belief that they can win four games in a seven-game series. Fifteen series-free years are enough for the Yankees.
