Gander where are you?

This system isn't gunna change.Yankees can continue to pile up wins against bad pitching during the regular season.You can buy those wins.You can buy yourself into a playoff spot. The reason you can't progress in the playoffs is because you have to either 1)hit good pitching,or 2)produce good pitching yourself.You did neither.The Tigers did both.The Cards produced some terrific pitching performances.They did not hit good pitching.It was unfortunate that the Mets threw so many bad pitches late in the games they lost.Mediocre pitching can often be bailed out by your hitters in the regular season.It is not always the case in the post.For instance,that late rally by the Mets last night would probably have won them that game against most teams (during the regular season.)In the post, it's a loss.So,a lot of these wins in the regular season are due to a team's ability to hit themselves out of pitching trouble.You can't rely on doing that in the post...They gone.Pitch better,or lose.The regular season favors the heavy- hitting/ mediocre- pitching teams.They are quickly found out in the post.
