Yankees general manager Brian Cashman, whose team hasn't made the World Series since 2009, blamed"illegal and horrific" actions by the Astros for that Fall Classic drought.The Astros-Yankees rivalry has gotten white-hot in recent years, thanks to three playoff meetings and Houston's sign-stealing scandal that left virtually every other baseball market incensed.
New York also has been eliminated from the playoffs seven other times before the World Series since last winning it all in 2009.Cashman told The Athletic “It does bother me when people say we haven’t been to the World Series since ’09. We did it all right, by building it to a certain level that could have gotten us to a World Series — if not for something else. But hey! We’re back at it. Every year, we’re still back at it. We’ve been qualifying for the postseason, and we’re going to take this team as far as we can get it, and hopefully we can push through.
