BT and Sal put aside their usual criticisms to acknowledge the unrivaled success of the Yankees franchise, especially after clinching yet another playoff spot. They challenged any fan to name a better franchise they'd rather switch places with, highlighting the Yankees' near-guaranteed annual postseason berths as an achievement few teams can match. Sal pointed to the Mets' struggles this year, despite a massive payroll, as a prime example of how difficult sustained success is, arguing that the Yankees' run of consistency is a remarkable feat that fans often take for granted. The Yankees, they concluded, are simply the gold standard in baseball, whether you like it or not.
