The two best teams won as they should. No conspiracy, but some people see conspiracy everywhere.

Once again the bulk of a World Series bound Yankees roster is made up of savvy trades and home grown players:

Traded for:
Soto, Chisholm, Clay Holmes, Mark Leiter Jr.

Claimed off Waivers / Traded for Cash:
LUKE WEAVER, Tim Hill, Jake Cousins

Have Only Played for the Yankees:
Judge, Volpe, Wells, Schmidt, Gil, Gleyber among others

True. Both the Yankees and the Dodgers had the best record in their respective Leagues during the regular season and redemonstrated their superiority in the playoffs. Not that I was happy to see that but....

I remember the hand wringing outrage that two teams with the worst record made it to the World Series last year to the point of MLB considering changing the rules to make the best teams end up in the World Series, while there might not be a grand conspiracy, there is definitely a financial interest in, and motivation to, make the popular teams end up on top. Let's not fool ourselves that there isn't an agenda to make the WS as profitable as possible.
