I have a feeling that I’ve left a postgame note like this multiple times in 2025, but the best course of action for last night’s win—for our collective sanity—is to conclude “Yes, it did indeed end in a win, nothing more to say about it!” Because boy did it get dumb. No matter what, it put the Yankees a smidge closer to hosting playoff games rather than needing to travel for a Wild Card Series.
It’s a lighter schedule today on the site! But there’s still baseball to discuss of course.

Below, we’ll take a look at Week 3 and the fantasy quarterback landscape.
