It all comes down to this. Gerrit Cole answered the call in a must-win Game 4 on Sunday night and now the New York Yankees turn to Nestor Cortes Jr. to seal the deal. Presumed AL MVP Aaron Judge could erase any doubts from a rough ALDS with a big game here. Alternately, Anthony Rizzo could be the hero against a Cleveland bullpen with only one lefty hurler.
The Cleveland Guardians are likely going with a bullpen day, though Aaron Civale was penciled in as the opener before the game was pushed back a day. Can the contact-happy offense of Jose Ramirez, Andres Gimenez, Oscar Gonzalez, et al. propel Cleveland to the ALCS?
