The MLB playoffs haven’t featured the Mets and Yankees since 2006, but it’s hard to avoid this thought if you take a look at what both clubs have done over the past few days: Is baseball back in New York?

If you never had a reason to learn who Brian McCann was during his time with the Atlanta Braves, you probably found one when he infamously blocked Brewers outfielder Carlos Gomez from touching home plate in September of 2013.

That future, which of course consists of familiar names in the Yankee organization like Luis Severino, Aaron Judge, Greg Bird, Gary Sanchez, Rob Refsnyder and more, may also include guys that you’re more familiar with, but aren’t currently in the organization.
