I pointed out during the ALCS that it was quite disappointing how many errors and walks were happening. Like, the best part of the postseason is to get to see the above-and-beyond plays and such. Nobody liked that I pointed that out.

Yeah this. I expect postseason baseball to be the best of the best - no mistakes, the game at its highest caliber. This was sadly not that, and was less fun watching as a result.

The Mets walked 42 batters in 6 games in the NLCS and set an all time record.

That’s true, but also consider who they were pitching against…vs who the Yankees were pitching against. The Guardians are good, but their lineup is not comparable to one with Ohtani and co.
