I was thinking about storylines and talking points that have come about with this year’s World Series matchup, and there are quite a few
- Ohtani facing the team who was his second choice in his free agency, and all of the mis-reporting that went on the day before he signed with the Dodgers
- Ohtani vs Vlad Jr, the two finalists for the 2021 AL MVP
- Don Mattingly in his first World Series facing the team he used to manage
- Teoscar Hernandez facing his former team that he broke out with
- Freddie Freeman, dual Canadian and American citizen who played for Team Canada in the WBC facing the Blue Jays
- This one’s a reach, but the Blue Jays potentially breaking a 32-year World Series drought against a team who five years earlier broke their own 32-year World Series drought
- In ‘N Out vs Harveys
Any other i’m missing?
