There's no correlation between experience and playoff success.

Tell that to the players and manager who have repeatedly said it before and during this series. They know what it takes now. Not just "being happy to be there."

They can say whatever they want the numbers don't support them. The whole " knowing what it takes now" is such a BS narrative. There's no secret strategy to winning the World Series. You need to do the same things you do to win any other series.

Sabermetrics taking over mind sets of players.. yikes.

 

And agreed with Reed.

It's not Sabremetrics, as many examples you can give of the more experienced team winning I can give you just as many examples of the inexperienced team winning. In '05 every team we faced in the playoffs was far more experienced than us, but we still kicked ass.

Particularly why I deleted the post. I agree with you, but I'm not going to doubt professional athletes who play the game either on their mentality.
